Suspense is building over who Donald Trump will choose to be his vice presidential running mate. The highly anticipated reveal is shaping up to be a MAGA-landish beauty pageant and reality show all in one.
“It’s like a highly sophisticated version of The Apprentice,” Trump said Friday on the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton show.
In the interview, the former and hopeful future president touted his top three finalists: Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida; Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio and Gov. Doug Burgum of North Dakota. Trump called Vance “great,” Rubio, “incredible” and said “a man named Burgum” is a “fantastic governor.” (Trump also gave a shout-out to Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, whose viability seems to have waned.)
