Donald Trump is getting a break from the ongoing criminal trial in New York. He has been forced to attend every hearing, in what some believe is an attempt to keep him from the campaign.
Are Democrats so scared of Trump’s reelection that they’d go to such lengths to hurt his campaign? Looks like it.
But Trump is not wasting any time. Even with a short break, he is hitting the ground running. He will be attending a big fundraiser in South Florida. Among the GOP heavy-hitters attending the event are some of the folks on his VP shortlist.
From Fox News:
Former President Donald Trump moves from the courtroom in New York City to the banquet rooms in South Florida on Friday, as he headlines a gathering of top Republican donors and teams up with potential running mates…Among those listed as “special guests” are possible running mates Sens. Tim Scott of South Carolina, JD Vance of Ohio, and Marco Rubio of Florida. So are Govs,. Doug Burgum of North Dakota and Kristi Noem from South Dakota.
Trump will be attending a big fundraising event at the Four Seasons Hotel in Palm Beach and his Mar-a-Lago club a few miles away. Big Republican donors will be attending the event—intending to make up for the trial’s seemingly intended damage to Trump’s campaign.
With Trump will be the people many think are part of his VP shortlist. The names include Sen. Tim Scott, Sen. JD Vance, Gov. Doug Burgum, and Kristi Noem. These names have been floating around for a while as possible Trump running mates.
The former president hasn’t announced a running mate yet. But we might get an answer pretty soon. Because his campaign has set a date for them he’ll make the decision. And it will happen before a major milestone in the election cycle.
From The Post Millennial:
Donald J. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, announced on Wednesday that he would select his pick for vice president shortly before the Republican National Convention in July…“I’ll be picking, but probably not too much before the convention, which I happen to be having in the great state of Wisconsin.”
Trump revealed he will pick his running mate sometime before the July Republican National Convention. It seems Trump is building suspense and excitement for this event. If he will announce his pick just before the convention, it is likely he will actually make the decision sometime before that—perhaps this month.
Trump’s running mate will have to be given the offer and respond. Then, the two will begin planning the rest of the campaign. Perhaps Trump has already made the decision and is quietly working with his new partner.
Either way, voters will only have to wait a few more weeks for the big news.
Key Takeaways:
- Donald Trump will attend a big fundraiser in Florida, attended by possible running mates.
- Trump revealed he will announce his running mate just before the Republican National Convention.
- Many voters have speculated on whom Trump will pick to be his VP.
