With the Republican party’s nomination virtually in hand, frontrunner Donald Trump is thinking about who might be his second-in-command after winning Tuesday's primary in Indiana.
Trump suggested in television interviews Wednesday morning that he would likely pick someone with more experience governing or legislating, though he did not name any potential picks.
"It will probably be a person with political experience," Trump told ABC's George Stephanopoulos by phone on “Good Morning America.” "I would like to have somebody that could truly be good with respect to dealing with the Senate, dealing with Congress, getting legislation passed."
Trump also confirmed his vice president would be a Republican, after Stephanopoulos asked.
On MSNBC's “Morning Joe” earlier that day, Trump suggested by phone that a more political vice president would complement his own history.
"I have the business, let's call them, talents," he said, adding that a possible vice president would be "somebody that’s been friends with the senators and congressmen and all so we don’t have to go the executive order route as much as Obama did."
But Trump said he was also considering a military leader when asked by host Joe Scarborough.
“It's something I thought of, and there's one person I think is very good,” he said, though he did not provide more details.
Trump's rival for the nomination Ted Cruz dropped out Tuesday night after being routed in Indiana, though he himself had announced Carly Fiorina would be his vice president. Trump declined to speak much about Cruz, though he said on MSNBC that an endorsement from the former senator would be "nice."
