Kari Lake, who lost her bid to become governor of Arizona in 2022, is also said to be on the list of possibilities.

However, she is now running to represent that state in the U.S. Senate.

Lake is among the candidates referred to as “loyal” who Trump is reportedly considering for the vice presidency.

Despite Melania’s endorsement, staff close to the former president and those around him express concerns about Tucker Carlson.

Some are worried Carlson could overshadow Donald Trump, suggesting that the talk show host may not be controllable, according to Axios.

A Trump campaign aide dismissed the Axios report, saying the former president is focused solely on the GOP primaries.

In addition, he also denied any speculation about the choice of the running mate.

«The Axios story is pure fiction,” the aide said. “Unless there is a formal announcement from President Trump or his campaign team, then it’s just speculation and not coming from us.»

The aide insisted the rumors didn’t come from the Trump campaign, according to News Euro.

«President Trump is solely focused on winning the Republican nomination and then defeating Crooked Joe Biden in the general election.»

The report also suggests several former Trump officials, including Stephen Miller, Steve Bannon and John McEntee, are being considered.

Jeffrey Clark, Ric Grenell, John Ratcliffe and Jared Kushner have also been mentioned for key roles in the White House and in Cabinet positions.

Bannon stated, «That list may never come true, but it’s a type of person that fully understands President Trump’s policies … that understands President Trump’s resolve and direction.»

«There’s no middle ground. It’s either us or them, but one side is going to win and one side is going to lose. No compromise,» he added.

In short, Melania Trump is actively advocating forTucker Carlson to be her husband Donald Trump’s running mate, according to News Euro.
