President-elect Donald Trump seriously considered Maria Bartiromo as a vice-presidential candidate in 2024, impressed by her longstanding support and friendly interviews.
Trump argued that Bartiromo was effective with Wall Street donors and possessed television skills, but his team raised concerns about proper vetting processes.
Despite initial interest, key advisor Susie Wiles ultimately ended discussions about Bartiromo, emphasizing the importance of standard vetting procedures before making decisions.
While Trump had enthusiasm for Bartiromo as a candidate, the selection process concluded with Sen. JD Vance being chosen as his running mate.
