Steve Bannon gave intriguing indications about Donald Trump’s potential running partner for the 2024 race on Monday. Who may that be? Time will only tell…
Steve Bannon made a suggestion on the “War Room” podcast that former President Trump’s 2024 campaign may benefit from an unconventional partnership with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a fellow firebrand and future Democratic presidential contender.
“By the way, I just want to make an aside before I bring Derek Harvey in. When I did Q-and-A and I did about an hour of Q-and-A, they had a little technical problem. But I did Q-and-A, which I think people were here. I want to make sure people understand this,” Bannon said.

“Somebody asked about Robert F. Kennedy and the great speech at Hillsdale, his opening speech and what did I think about his prospects. And I said, “Look, I’m a Kari Lake person, but if Kari Lake becomes governor, as she should if this court case, or if not, she runs for the Senate. If she’s not available to be Trump’s VP that Bobby Kennedy would be, I think, be an excellent choice for President Trump to consider. There was a standing ovation and this was a very hardcore MAGA war room posse crowd,” he added.
“I think that that is a signal to the political elites in this country that something very different is going on. And I thought it was quite extraordinary. Robert Kennedy Jr. has huge support for the American populist movement. Look for the GOP elites to start their attacks on Bobby any day now,” Bannon continued.

The Trump team dropped intriguing hints about a potential 2020 vice presidential candidate last week. Everything suggests that this choice will be a success!
The 45th president is likely to choose a vice presidential candidate who is “loyal,” “charismatic,” and “ideologically aligned,” according to Trump sources who talked to the Daily Caller.
“No candidates have publicly announced their intent to be Trump’s VP, but the former president has indicated that ‘a lot of people’ are ‘auditioning’ behind the scenes. Trump insiders told the Caller that although there haven’t been any formal discussions to narrow down the pool, there are a set of characteristics that will likely be considered,” the Daily Caller reported.
“We do know one thing about Trump, is that he puts a lot of weight on how well you present yourself. That really matters to him, so I suspect that will matter for his VP choice,” According to a Republican adviser close to Trump, the candidate should also be “TV ready.”
“Loyalty. That’s the necessary characteristic of anyone who wants to be VP. President Trump and the movement was dragged down by disloyalty in the White House,” a Trump-related person stated.
Insiders claim he has a specific someone in mind for him and that he has a particular sort of person in mind. Will it be them? Time will only tell!
Unnamed Trump aide was quoted in a recent Politico article as saying that the 45th president is likely to pick a running mate. “From three general lanes of candidates: women, conservatives of color, or a trusted adviser.”
“Once you get past those two issues — loyalty and Trump going more with his gut — Trump has a lot of leeway in who he would pick,” Trump’s primary pollster in 2016 and 2020, Tony Fabrizio, stated.
“He’s not necessarily looking to balance the ticket geographically, but what he can do is pick to balance gender, race, ethnicity — a lot of different lanes there. It could be everything from a Tim Scott in South Carolina to an Asian American in California or somebody Hispanic in Texas. There are so many choices and paths. And there’s lots of time to go,” he added.
Four female Republicans are being given serious consideration for the top slots on the shortlist as President Trump gears up for his reelection campaign. Along with Sarah Huckabee Sanders of Arkansas, other potential members of Trump’s staff include the governors of South Dakota and New York, Elise Stefanik and Kari Lake, a former journalist.
According to The Washington Examiner:
When Sarah Sanders gave a stirring rebuttal to Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech on February 7th, her profile shot sky high. Sanders’ performance garnered praise from across the political spectrum and was hailed as “exceptionally strong” by Donald Trump backers. This solidified her position as one of America’s youngest governors and the longest-serving White House press secretary.
Noem set a precedent in 2018 when she was elected as South Dakota’s first female governor. She gained national reputation as a prominent Republican leader among those waging what are sometimes referred to as “culture wars” during her more than 10 years of service in the House of Representatives.
Republican moderate Elise Stefanik won election in 2015. She has since turned to support Trump’s conservative agenda after standing up for the President throughout his impeachment trial and promoting his future campaign for president in 2024 before it had even been made public. She frequently takes pride in how close they are and often promotes it.
Former television anchor Lake, who unsuccessfully ran for governor of Arizona, won the ex-President’s favor when she backed up his allegations of electoral fraud. She may be rewarded for her loyalty even if many of her coworkers think she’s a strange pick if the president permits them to team up in 2024.
Despite not appearing in the Washington Examiner’s list of candidates for Liz Cheney’s House seat, Georgia’s GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has recently made headlines.
