Top Republican Woman Being ‘Seriously Considered’ As Trump’s VP: Report

A post on the X platform on Wednesday, two days after former President Donald Trump’s historic win in Iowa, suggested he is leaning towards a leading Republican woman to be his running mate.

The Calvin Coolidge Project noted on its X account that the leading GOP presidential contender is “seriously considering” House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) as his choice.

Meanwhile, CBS News reported that Stefanik will be campaigning with Trump ahead of next week’s New Hampshire primaries, in which he currently leads by most polls, though GOP competitor Nikki Haley, his former UN ambassador, appears to be closing the gap in some surveys.

“This is the first time Stefanik – who is also the House GOP chairwoman – will join Trump as he tries to win the New Hampshire primary,” the outlet reported. “Stefanik was among the first members of Congress to endorse Trump in the presidential primary season in November 2022, when he announced his third bid for the White House. She’s viewed as a loyal ally to Trump, according to sources.”

After Trump’s Iowa win, Stefanik called on Haley, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and the remaining GOP field to drop out and unite behind him.

“I am calling on every other candidate — all of whom have no chance to win — to drop out, so we can unify and immediately rally behind President Trump so that we can focus 100% of our resources on defeating Joe Biden to Save America,” she wrote in a statement.
