Trump Mulls Over Diverse VP Shortlist for 2024 Election

The former president seeks input on a broad range of candidates, with an announcement expected early summer.

Donald Trump is considering a wide range of potential running mates for the 2024 election, including senators, governors, and former Cabinet officials.
The list of vice presidential contenders includes Marco Rubio, JD Vance, Tim Scott, Kristi Noem, and others, with Trump seeking input from allies and donors.
Trump plans to announce his vice presidential pick in early summer before the Republican convention, aiming to build suspense and potentially boost fundraising.
Some potential picks, like Rubio and Scott, have been publicly discussed, while others, such as Marjorie Taylor Greene and Ben Carson, are considered less likely.
Trump's selection process reflects his belief that the vice presidential choice will not significantly impact his core supporters' voting decisions.
