Donald Trump Jr. has a vice president in mind for his father should No. 45 become No. 47. Former President Donald Trump’s son endorsed former Fox News host Tucker Carlson as a possible vice presidential candidate when he spoke to Rob Finnerty on Newsmax’s “Wake Up America.” Don Jr. confirmed, “That’s clearly on the table. I mean they’re very friendly, I think they agree on virtually all of these things. They certainly agree on stopping the never-ending wars. And so, I would love to see that happen. That would certainly be a contender.” Trump Jr. seemingly approves of Carlson as his dad’s presidential running mate. However, he also denied presidential contender Nikki Haley for the position.
Don Jr. is not a fan of the former UN ambassador. On Christmas Day 2023, he appeared on Newsmax’s “The Balance,” saying (via Fox News), “I wouldn’t have her on [Donald Trump’s presidential campaign], and I would go to great lengths to make sure that that doesn’t happen.” Don Jr., who seems to have military conflict at the top of his agenda, pointed out, “Nikki Haley wants never-ending wars.” Don Jr. also called Haley a puppet of the establishment of Washington D.C., stating, “By the way, all you’d get is her and team trying to destroy Donald Trump from within, forever.” Don Jr. is nothing if not vocal. For him, it’s Carlson over Haley any day, every day.
