“So, look, we have some very good people—the same people you know,” Trump said. “They’re good people. We have some people that would like me to run with certain others. Maybe I can’t do that because you have to go with what your gut tells you. Winning is very important. Look, if we don’t win this, I think this country is finished. I actually do.”
Donor-class establishment types are aggressively lobbying Trump to get him to pick former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, a current Trump rival for the GOP nomination. Their argument is that she would help him win women and moderate voters, but Trump does not seem to be buying that argument as evidenced by his belief that whomever he would select as a running mate would make no difference in the outcome of the general election.
