The Republican voters has expressed their preferences for former President Donald Trump’s choice for vice president in the upcoming election. This past week, a survey conducted by the Center Square Voter’s Voice asked voters, “Who should Donald Trump select as his running mate?”
Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis emerged as the frontrunner with 18 percent, narrowly edging out former United Nations Ambassador and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, who garnered 17 percent. Senator Tim Scott and Vivek Ramaswamy both received 15 percent support, surpassing other candidates who remained in single digits.
However, it is confirmed that Ramaswamy will not be the chosen candidate, as the former president, having secured the necessary delegates for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, personally informed him of his decision, as reported by Bloomberg News.
“There’s a lot of press speculation, but I can tell you Vivek’s top focus is making sure we get President Trump elected so that we can take America First to the next level,” the former candidate’s spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said to The New York Post.
“This country would be lucky to have him serve in the next administration and beyond. In the meantime, Vivek is focused on driving change in the private sector and reforming our economy, including by continuing to push back against the ESG cancer in corporate America,” she said.
Megyn Kelly, a well-known host of a popular SiriusXM podcast, believes she has pinpointed a promising new candidate for former President Donald Trump’s list of potential running mates: Freshman Republican Senator Katie Britt from Alabama.
During a recent episode, Kelly shared a video excerpt of an interview between Trump and Greg Kelly from Newsmax TV. In the interview, the former president mentioned that he had eliminated “some individuals” from his list due to their behavior that he deemed inappropriate.
“Does ‘they didn’t behave appropriately,’ do you think — we’re trying to get into his mind — mean somebody who attacked him?” Kelly asked. “Because I think, I think he would have used a different word. You know, ‘They turned out to be losers.’ You know, I think he would have been stronger in his condemnation, and he might have even named them if they had actually slammed him.”
“Ruthless” podcast co-host Michael Duncan offered that Trump “doesn’t like desperation” before suggesting that the 45th president could have ruled “some people” out because he felt they “are a little too thirsty” for the position.
Kelly pondered the possibility that Britt, who presented the GOP response to President Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union speech, could emerge as an unexpected contender for Trump’s vice presidential running mate. However, as reported by the Daily Caller, the conservative commentator hinted that Trump may have been discontented or humiliated by Britt’s delivery.
“I have my own theory,” she continued. “My theory is it could be a reference to a rising star in the Republican Party who had such heat and buzz around them that they were asked to deliver the response to the State of the Union — and then bombed.”

Kelly continued by emphasizing that causing embarrassment to Trump is considered the worst sin, highlighting his keen eye for television. She also pointed out that Trump likely earned more from his involvement in Celebrity Apprentice and The Apprentice than from his real estate business. Additionally, she hinted that Britt’s GOP rebuttal, which faced backlash from conservatives online, could have potentially damaged Trump’s opinion of her.
