Longtime Donald Trump ally Roger Stone speculated about who the former president could choose as his vice president, suggesting Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes would be a good pick.

“You know who I would like? I thought of this last night, Devin Nunes,” Stone told Newsmax host Eric Bolling on Thursday. “[He’s a] 20-year member of Congress, former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, someone Donald Trump is very close to and trusts entirely. He’s Hispanic, a former farmer from before he went to Congress. I think he would be an excellent choice.”
Nunes represented California in the House of Representatives from 2003 to 2022 before he resigned to run Trump’s media company. He was a staunch Trump ally while in Congress.
Stone has been tied to the effort to keep Trump in power after the 2020 election but did not participate in any of the events of the Jan. 6 riot on Capitol Hill. But he did allegedly meet with members of the extremist groups, the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, before the riot.
Trump became the presumptive Republican presidential candidate earlier this month but has not declared his running mate. President Joe Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Stone also said of Trump’s running mate options that “his list is getting larger rather than smaller.” Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Tim Scott (R-SC), Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD), and Reps. Byron Donalds (R-FL) and Elise Stefanik (R-NY) have all been floated as possible contenders. Former Hawaii Tulsi Gabbard has also been rumored to be a possible candidate.
Former Vice President Mike Pence will not be Trump’s running mate this year and has even refused to endorse the former president. He has not disclosed who he will vote for in 2024 but said it would not be Biden.
