Trump hints that Fallin and Brewer on VP shortlist
Donald Trump said on Wednesday that former Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer and Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin are both on his shortlist for running mate.
{mosads}In an interview with Fox News’s “On the Record,” the GOP presumptive nominee was asked about Brewer saying that Fallin was on the list.
“Well, also Jan. Jan Brewer has been fantastic,” he said. “She has been so fantastic. You know I won so big, her territory, we won so big. And she is a fabulous woman. And I agree with you, the governor of Oklahoma, fabulous person.”
Asked whether Chris Christie is still in the running as a possible vice presidential pick, Trump declined to give a straight answer, opting just to praise the New Jersey governor.
“I don’t want to say ‘in there,’ but he’s helping me and he was an early endorsement and a very enthusiastic one and he’s a friend of mine and a very good guy and a talented guy and he’s helping us a lot,” Trump said.
He said between five and seven people are under consideration and that he will make the announcement at the convention this summer.
