“Some people did the appropriate thing that I didn’t expect,” Trump continued. “Yeah, I think we’ve gotten rid of some people, but we’ve gotten rid of a lot of people. There’s a lot of great people in the Republican Party and I think they’ll do a great job, but certainly There are people I don’t want to be vice president.”

(Republican), Representative Byron Donald (R-Florida), South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem (Republican), and former Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard (formerly a Democrat but has now left the party). ).

Nikki Haley, Trump’s former ambassador to the United Nations and rival for the Republican presidential nomination, was considered by some to be a running mate, but both she and Trump rejected the idea.

“It’s up to Donald Trump to capture the votes of those who didn’t support him, both inside and outside his party, and I hope he does,” Haley said. “The best thing about politics is bringing people to your cause, not pushing them away. And our conservative cause needs more people. Now he It’s time to choose.”
