CBS News called this "BREAKING" news on Friday. It may be new that Donald Trump is considering Nikki Haley to be his running mate, but to us, it's been pretty obvious that Haley has been campaigning to be vice president. This is after Trump called her a "birdbrain" following the debates.
BREAKING: Trump asking allies about possibility of Nikki Haley for vice president https://t.co/UC0geA00P1
— CBS News (@CBSNews) December 22, 2023
"Former President Donald Trump has been asking allies and advisers for their thoughts about Nikki Haley as a potential vice presidential candidate, two sources familiar with the conversations tell CBS News," they write.
Team MAGA is not thrilled with the idea.
I'll take things that never happened for $200, Alex.

I will not vote for him if he chooses her.

Period.
I don't know how much truth there is but I speak for a lot of trump supporters when I say never in a 100 years would I vote for this ticket

"sources familiar with the conversations tell CBS News."

LOL.
Why not just ask Jeb Bush?

This is so not happening 🤣

Nobody wants this.

That would doom him.

Sounds like D.C. establishment propaganda. Zero chance Trump picks her.

That’d be an immediate vote for Vivek

If he picks Haley as his running mate, he loses my vote.

"Two sources familiar with the conversation" with well sourced journalism like this it is hard to understand why legacy media viewership is dwindling. If you're going to spread misinformation and propaganda you could at least try to make it convincing.

I didn't vote in 2016 or 2020, and if he picks Haley to be his running mate, then I won't be voting in 2024, either.

I would vote Biden if he did that, and I despise Biden.

Well, that’s one way to get himself removed from the ballots.

No chance.

Makes me happy that Trump is trolling legacy media
— SpikeFL🇺🇸 (@LFrundie) December 23, 2023
But she's a woman of color. Oh, wait, that was Joe Biden who promised to pick a black woman.
Trump made some bad hires when he was president, so this is entirely possible.
