“Let me add more to your cabinet, who will be in your administration. If you are a candidate, which I think you would expect to be a candidate, but who will be in your administration? Would he be a vice presidential candidate?'' McCollum wondered.
“Well, I can't really tell you. I mean, I know who it's going to be,” President Trump teased.
Another Fox host, Bret Baier, responded to the president's request for audience members to give “hints” by jokingly saying that Trump “will do another show one day.”(Related: 'Soulless' – Republicans slam Arthur Engoron for not delaying Trump's trial after Melania Trump's mother's death)
McCollum continued to press Trump on whether he would consider those who have been his “adversaries,” joking that Trump was “already starting to like Christie more.” .
“So what about the guys you've played against? Could you mend fences with any of them?” McCallum questioned.
“Oh, of course I would. I'm already starting to like Christie more,” President Trump said.
McCollum then told Trump to “make Christie vice president,” with the former president saying the move “would be an upset.”
President Trump said, “I don't think so. It's an upset. Christie as vice president.”
Republican former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie withdrew from the 2024 primary on Wednesday, just days before races in two key states.
The former president currently holds a 52-point lead in Republican seats with 65% of the vote, followed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis with 13%. according to Morning Consult poll.
