What does it take to be former President Donald Trumpās running mate? South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) believes she has what it takes to fill the role.
She spoke about such qualities in an interview with Fox News host Lawrence Jones.
āIām all-in to do what I can to help the team. He needs somebody that actually is not part of the swamp, I think. He needs a business owner,ā Noem told Jones. āHe needs somebody whoās been a commander-in-chief, somebody who makes decisions when things get tough.ā
āThose are his qualifications, and he needs to know he can have somebody around him that trusts him and he trusts and will fight,ā she said.
Noem is on the shortlist in consideration to be Trumpās Vice President.
Others on the list are Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida, and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, a Democrat who turned independent.
Trump seems satisfied with those on the list.
āHonestly, all of those people are good. Theyāre all good, theyāre all solid,ā Trump said.
But Noem has made it clear, she is up to the challenge.
āHeās got a lot of jobs to do when youāre President of the United States. He needs to have people on his team that fight for him every single day,ā Noem said.
