Kayleigh McEnany Thinks She Knows Who Trump Will Pick As His Running Mate

Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany has revealed her thoughts about who she believes her former boss, Donald Trump, will select as his running mate should he secure the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.

During a Thursday segment on “Outnumbered,” McEnany and her fellow co-hosts said they believe Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) is a top contender for the spot.

“What I find fascinating from what we just watched is that was him showing, ‘I have chops to be your VP,’” McEnany said after the show played some clips of Scott answering voters’ questions and shaking hands. “Because, in addition to winning over independents, winning over suburban moms, the VP pick must be someone who is the most effective voice for Donald Trump as he is embattled in these court battles. He just proved he can handle that.”

Co-host Emily Compagno agreed with that assessment.

“What I thought this illustrated so beautifully is that Donald Trump has surrounded himself not with facsimile robots but with independent thinkers that are committed to the ideals and values of conservatism and the Republican Party,” she began. “It just goes to show for me the brand versus party and the brand versus values that the GOP is constantly fighting against the Democrats about.

“And what I mean by that is, every time you put a surrogate for Biden up, they say the same, ‘Biden is great and everything is fine.’ It’s over-simplified, it’s over-generalized, it’s, honestly, it’s not thoughtful. They are facsimiles of each other because they have the brand down,” Compagno continued.

“And the GOP, where we struggle, is that brand identification, but we are committed to the ideals and values. So, we have Tim Scott, so thoughtful, so intellectual, so clear about where he stands on issues,” she added. “He’s not just saying, ‘What does Trump think? Ok, I’m going to say it.’ He’s saying, ‘This is what I think, and you can trust me because this is what we all need right now. And, yes, and the army of Christ is absolutely rising up and he’s tapping into that, too.”
