It was reported late last night that there’s a new candidate on former President Trump’s shortlist for Vice President.

We’ve reported on the list before, which included Senators Marco Rubio, Tim Scott and JD Vance and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum.

Now another Senator has made it on the list and his name is Tom Cotton:

NEWSMAX – Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., has emerged as a top-five pick on the shortlist of Donald Trump’s vice presidential candidates, The New York Times reported Friday.

Cotton, 47, joins four Republicans being strongly considered: Gov. Doug Burgum of North Dakota and Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida, Tim Scott of South Carolina, and J.D. Vance of Ohio. Former secretary of Housing and Urban Development Dr. Ben Carson and Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York are on the expanded short list of Republicans under consideration, the Times reported.

Cotton’s emergence comes as Trump is giving more weight to experience and the ability to run a disciplined campaign, according to the Times.

Cotton served in the U.S. Army and had tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is a two-term senator.

Trump is likely to announce his running mate at the Republican National Convention in July in Milwaukee, Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Newsmax on Friday.

Tom Cotton certainly has the discipline to handle what the media will throw at him and he won’t outshine the future president in any way. Also he says a lot of good stuff and won’t embarrass Trump.

I still think Rubio has the most to offer in terms of the the voters he could help bring to Trump’s base, but Cotton sounds like another great choice.
