Don Trump Jr. ‘Would Love’ Tucker Carlson to Be President Trump’s VP

He expressed strong support for Tucker Carlson to be former President Donald Trump’s running mate—and so potentially the US Vice President.

Former President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., said Thursday he “would love to see” Tucker Carlson be the former president’s running mate in the 2024 presidential election—though he had some positive things to say about one or two other potential VP picks.

While Mr. Trump Jr. noted it’s not his choice to make—and the former president still needs to formally secure the Republican nomination for it to be his choice—the president’s son told Newsmax on Jan. 18 that a Trump-Carlson 2024 ticket “would certainly be a contender.”
