Donald Trump, 77, is leaning toward picking a woman as his running mate in 2024 – but says he doesn't think it will make much of a 'difference' who he asks to run with him as vice president. The ex-President said he is considering South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, 51, as a running mate. 'I like not to think too much about that. You always do a little bit – but I really don't think it's time. I want to win,' Trump told NBC News' new Meet the Press host Kristen Welker.

Stop with the teasers. I hate that. Dont tell me you are going to drop a blockbuster in a week. It doesn't build up anticipation, it builds resentment. If you have something to say, just say it.

He should pick someone he can trust. His best bet for VP would be a family member.

Gender and Race should have absolutely no place when selecting a running mate to any elective office. Full stop. President Trump is demonstrating some seriously flawed thinking in this matter. Enough with the diversity crap, President Trump. Stop trying to reach across to the communist death democrat women. They and the rest of the commie democrats are our deadly enemy.

Yes, #9, the usual suspects are whipping into a frenzy over something a DM reporter concludes. Pretty sure I read that Trump said it was too early to think about a VP, and that a lot of people are under consideration. I realize I’m getting older, but I still have pretty good reading comprehension skills.

As he goes about campaigning I suspect he is thinking about his selections for all positions but winning is the key so whatever he says now is only words. Since Trump only has 4 years, the VP selection is important for the his legacy.

Drive-byers who don’t bother to read the article really come off as ding-dongs with their comments sometimes. Nowhere in this article does Trump either “hint” or “publicly call out” Noem as his VP. When specifically asked if he'd consider a female running mate, he said: 'I like the concept, yes . . . but, we're going to pick the best person.” The End. Read the articles, folks.

Former President Donald Trump is expected to participate in a Fox News Channel town hall during CNN’s Iowa debate that will feature other 2024 Republican presidential candidates. CNN announced on Dec. 7 that it would be hosting two Republican presidential debates, the one on Jan. 10 at Drake University in Iowa at 9 p.m. and the other on Jan. 21 in New Hampshire. Neither debates are in partnership with the Republican National Committee (RNC). While some of the former president’s challengers will debate each other on CNN, Trump will appear on a Fox News Channel town hall moderated by its own Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum
One of Nostradamus’ terrifying predictions

It was a literal groundbreaking prophecy. As if Nostradamus’ foretellings weren’t eerily accurate enough, the iconic astrologer was apparently right on the money with yet another apocalyptic prophecy just hours into 2024 — the New Year’s Day earthquake. Also known as the Prophet Of Doom, the 16th-century French philosopher is best known for his foreboding forecasts, which he chronicled in his 1555 text “Les Propheties.” These 943 verses are somewhat too vague to be sure, but Nostradamus has been credited with predicting everything from the Rise Of Adolf Hitler to COVID-19 like a 450-year-old Century “Simpsons” cartoon.

Palm Beach, Florida — Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that assuming he wins the GOP nomination for president again he will work to expand the universe of battleground states and aggressively compete against whoever Democrats nominate in states like New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Minnesota, and New Mexico. Trump said he thinks he can compete in a number of states that Republicans have not won in many years in presidential elections. He said he plans to do rallies in these states, and work to try to win them—but maybe not as hard as the traditional battleground states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Arizona, and Georgia.

Twenty-five states are boosting their minimum wages in 2024, with California leading the way with a bump to $16 for all employees. But fast-food workers in California enjoy a special carve out — effective April 1, 2024, employees at most fast-food chains with more than 60 locations will make $20 an hour.

President Joe Biden is heading into election year showing “alarming weakness” among “stalwarts” of the Democrat base — black, Hispanic, and young voters, according to a new poll. The USA Today/Suffolk University poll showed that one in five black voters would support a third-party candidate in 2024. In addition, Biden has fallen behind former President Donald Trump, the likely Republican nominee, with Hispanic and young voters, 39-34 percent and 37-33 percent, respectively. Both groups backed Biden in 2020. (Photos) Trump has the support of 12 percent of black voters, the same percentage he had in 2020, according to the poll.

With Joe Biden facing an impeachment inquiry and questions about his age and cognitive ability amid the worse polling for an incumbent president running for reelection in decades, Kamala Harris should be positioned to step in on the campaign trail to replace Biden at the top of the ticket. Yet Harris, who ignobly dropped out of the 2020 Democrat presidential primary before the first vote was cast due to her abysmal polling–including in her home state of California (only 7%) , is still incredibly unpopular four years later.

A 10-day waiting period for all gun purchases in Washington state went into effect January 1, 2024. FOX 13 reported the 10-day waiting period was part of 2023’s House Bill 1143.The new law also “requires people to go through training before they can buy a gun,” Apple Valley News Now noted. State Sen. Patty Kuderer (D) supported the 10-day waiting period and the training requirement, saying, “The sad fact today is that over half of suicides are committed with a firearm. There are very few do-overs when a gun is used and that’s why Mr. President, this cooling off period that’s in the bill is so critically important.”
