Steve Bannon predicts Trump will choose a female VP, suggests intriguing candidates

Steve Bannon Thinks Trump Will Pick Female VP, Names Intriguing ⁢Options

While⁤ supporters of former President Donald Trump may have been getting increasingly excited about the possibility of a‍ certain former Fox News host​ being ‍chosen as Trump’s running mate,​ but one man ​who has ⁤been ‍very close to the former president’s political⁢ thinking in the past has a message for those folks:

Don’t⁤ get your ⁤hopes up.

Steve Bannon, who served as both the chief executive⁢ of Trump’s 2016 campaign and as a senior adviser to the president⁢ after the ⁤election told Sean Spicer on Thursday that he expected Trump​ to choose a woman as⁤ his ‍potential vice president.

Spicer, another ⁣veteran of the Trump‍ administration, asked Bannon whether he thought ‌ Tucker Carlson would make a good vice⁢ president and why.

“I think Tucker would make a great vice president,” Bannon replied. “I⁣ think⁤ he’s got a very clear vision of what MAGA and America First ⁣are. He’s got a very clear vision of the … policies of it, ‍he’s savvy in politics‌ — and he’s got something that is so important in today, the⁢ ability to communicate.”

However, Bannon said, the chances of ​Carlson getting the nod were somewhere on the continuum between slim and none.

“My ⁣thinking is very structured that I⁢ believe President⁤ Trump will have a female as ⁤the vice president,” Bannon‍ said, a position​ with which Spicer appeared to agree vehemently.

Spicer then asked Bannon to “give me that ​list” ⁢of 10 potential female running‌ mates. Bannon ‍started with South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem.

“Kristi​ Noem, I ‌think, will be very ‍competitive,” Bannon said, “given her understanding ⁤of the MAGA movement, ‍came out of the Tea ‌Party, very close to ⁤President ‌Trump.”

Bannon quickly listed New York⁣ Rep. Elise Stefanik, Arkansas Gov. and ⁣former ⁣Trump press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace, a name Spicer pushed back on, given Mace’s negative past comments about Trump.

“She voted to⁢ send me, Shaun, to a federal prison,” Bannon said, laughing. “And [yet] she’s been ‘War Room’ twice.”

“I’m not saying she’s a perfect candidate, there’s⁣ not a lot of perfect candidates there, right? All ‍of them have some pretty big short fallings, at least as of⁣ now,” he explained. “I think Nancy Mace would have to be included on the list.

“First off, just her Trumpian attitude. She comes​ at‌ this ⁢with ⁤a brashness and a⁣ set of titanium [testicles],” Bannon added. “Trump loves fighters, right?”

Bannon added a few other names to the list, including former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, current Arizona senate candidate Kari Lake, and Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn.

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds would‍ have been‌ in the top five, Bannon said, had she not recently endorsed Florida​ Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Trump has about ‍eight months to finalize his decision, as ⁤the 2024 Republican National Convention will not be held until July 15, 2024.

What​ are the potential advantages of selecting a female vice‌ president for‍ Trump’s ‍campaign

>Steve Bannon​ Thinks Trump ⁣Will ​Pick Female VP, Names Intriguing⁢ Options

While supporters of former President Donald‌ Trump may have been getting increasingly excited about the possibility‌ of a certain former Fox ⁢News host being ​chosen as Trump’s running mate, but one man ​who has been very ‌close to the former ⁤president’s political thinking in ‍the past has a ⁤message for⁤ those folks: Don’t ‍get your hopes up.

Steve Bannon, who served as both the⁣ chief⁣ executive of Trump’s 2016⁢ campaign ⁣and‍ as a senior adviser ⁢to the president after the election told Sean Spicer on Thursday that​ he expected Trump⁣ to choose a woman⁤ as his​ potential⁢ vice president.

Spicer, another veteran of ​the Trump administration, ‍asked Bannon whether he thought Tucker Carlson would make a ⁤good vice president and why.

“I think Tucker would make a ⁤great vice president,” Bannon replied. “I think he’s got a very clear vision of what MAGA and America‌ First are. He’s ​got a very clear vision of the policies of it, he’s savvy in politics, and he’s got something that is so important in⁢ today, the ability to communicate.”

However, Bannon said, the ⁤chances of Carlson getting the nod ⁢were somewhere on the continuum between slim and‍ none.

“My thinking is ​very structured that I believe⁢ President Trump will⁣ have a⁢ female as the vice president,” Bannon said, a position with which Spicer appeared ⁢to agree vehemently.

Spicer‌ then‍ asked ⁤Bannon ⁢to “give me that list”⁤ of‍ 10 ‍potential female running mates. Bannon started with South Dakota Gov.⁣ Kristi‍ Noem.

“Kristi Noem, I think, will be very competitive,” Bannon said, “given⁤ her understanding of⁣ the MAGA ​movement, came out of the Tea Party,‍ very close to President ‌Trump.”

Bannon quickly listed New York ⁢Rep. Elise Stefanik‍ as another intriguing ​option.

While the idea of a female vice⁣ president⁤ may come as a surprise ‌to some, it is not entirely unexpected. Trump ​has previously ​shown⁢ willingness to consider women ⁣for⁢ high-ranking positions within his administration. Notable examples include the appointments of Nikki Haley as United Nations ‌Ambassador, Sarah Sanders as White House Press Secretary, and Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education.

Choosing⁣ a female⁢ vice president ‍could be​ seen ​as a strategic move ‍to appeal to a ⁤broader voter base. Women make up ‌a significant portion of the electorate, ​and ‌Trump‌ may seek to capitalize‍ on that demographic by selecting a female running mate‍ who‌ can resonate with ‍female voters.

In addition ⁤to the political advantage, selecting a woman​ for the⁣ vice⁤ presidential position would also send a powerful message about gender equality and ⁤women’s empowerment. It would break barriers and challenge​ the traditional ⁣norms associated with presidential campaigns.

As for the potential​ candidates, the names mentioned by Bannon ⁤offer a‌ diverse range ⁣of‍ options. Kristi Noem, with‌ her understanding of the⁣ MAGA movement and close ⁤association with Trump, could bring a strong​ connection to the⁢ base. Elise Stefanik, on the other ⁣hand,‍ has proven ​herself as a formidable congresswoman and an effective ⁤communicator.

While these names are certainly intriguing, it remains‌ to be seen who Trump will⁣ ultimately choose ‍as his running mate. One thing, however, is clear: the anticipation surrounding Trump’s decision continues to grow, as does ‌speculation about the future of his political career.
