After a long wait, former President Donald Trump is finally claiming to have chosen his running mate for the 2024 presidential election. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is keeping her cool because it's not her.
The Republican primary candidate told reporters in Philadelphia on Saturday that no one knows who the next presidential candidate will be. Running Mate And for now, his secret remains safe “within his own mind,” Newsmax reports.
But three candidates have recently risen to the top of the list: Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio; Gov. J.D. Vance of North Dakota; Doug Burgumand Florida Senator Marco Rubio.
After months of legal troubles, picking the right person to stand by him is paramount and could determine the outcome of the presidential election. Each choice has a notable cachet: Vance, for example, gained national attention with his best-selling memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy.” Burgum, like Trump, is a businessman and a vocal supporter of the former president's policies. remarks.
Rubio, on the other hand, actually faced off against Trump in the 2016 Republican primary, making him a candidate with considerable political experience.
Naturally, the competition is tough and it's hard to make it to the finals — South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem was one of the Republicans who didn't make it.
Noem appeared on NBC's “Meet the Press” on Sunday morning and spoke about what she thinks has thwarted her opportunities, and it seems she believes national attention isn't being given to her story. Kill the dog What was gained had nothing to do with it.
She claimed it was simply a 20-year-old story about protecting children from “vicious animals” and that the book was full of “tough times and difficult decisions.”
That wasn't the only thing Noem tried to avoid. The guest host brought up a passage from her book that was later redacted: Peter Alexander asked“You write about a meeting with Kim Jong Un. There is no evidence that the meeting actually took place, so why did it get in the book?”
“I'm not going to talk about that. I took that part out of my book,” Noem said.
Alexander demanded, “Why was that line in your book?”
Noem dodged the question with a round of quizzes, and when asked one last time, the Republican leader replied: ““I'm not going to talk about this.”
The South Dakota governor was keen to admit that he had not received any paperwork for vetting to be a vice presidential candidate.
“You say adding a woman to the nomination would help Donald Trump win, but he said on this show last year that he liked the idea of running with a woman,” Alexander said, noting that there are currently three men on the nomination list. “Would it be a mistake for Donald Trump not to pick a woman as his running mate?”
Noem redirected the question and praised Trump, saying the convicted man was in a “great position” to win the election no matter who he chose, as long as that person helped him win.
