<p>Former President Donald Trump named two people during an interview over the weekend when asked about who he is considering to be his vice presidential running mate.</p>
<p>Trump mentioned Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem when asked during a Sunday interview with Maria Bartiromo about who he was considering.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, I have a lot of good people. We have a lot of really good people,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;I have a lot of good ideas, but I haven&#8217;t — and there&#8217;s no reason to do that quickly.&#8221;</p>
<p>He said that he would not make the decision for &#8220;a while,&#8221; adding that the top thing that he wants in his vice president is someone who would be a good president.</p>
<p>&#8220;I speak to everybody,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I called Tim Scott &#8230; and I said, &#8216;you&#8217;re a much better candidate for me than you are for yourself.&#8217; When I watched Tim, he was fine, he was good, but he was very low-key, et cetera, et cetera.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I watched him in the last week defending me and sticking up for me and fighting for me,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I said, man, I said, &#8216;you&#8217;re a much better person for me than you are for yourself&#8217;, because, for himself, he was low-key. For me, he&#8217;s been a real tiger. He&#8217;s been incredible. And others have too.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump said that it &#8220;could be&#8221; Scott as he championed having received Scott&#8217;s endorsement before saying that getting an endorsement was a requirement for being selected.</p>
<p>&#8220;Kristi Noem has been incredible fighting for me,&#8221; Trump added. &#8220;She said, I&#8217;d never run against him because I can&#8217;t beat him. That was a very nice thing to say.&#8221;</p>
