When asked about Nikki Haley’s positive comments toward him following their contentious primary battles, Trump told News 12’s Tara Rosenblum, “well I think she’s going to be on our team because we have a lot of the same ideas, the same thoughts.”

Trump did not clarify if he was speaking specifically about the VP position or a different position within the administration.

Other names floated by Trump were Ben Carson, Sen. Marco Rubio, Sen. J.D. Vance and Rep. Elise Stefanik.

Trump says he’d like to make a decision during the Republican National Convention in mid-July.
