"VP Speculation Heats Up: Trump's Contenders Audition in Hotly Contested GOP Primary"

The GOP is abuzz with speculation over potential vice presidential candidates for the 2024 election, with former President Trump teasing that he already knows his pick. Several former presidential candidates, including North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, and Sen. Tim Scott, have endorsed Trump and appeared alongside him, while others like Rep. Elise Stefanik and J.D. Vance are also vying for the position. The contenders face the challenge of promoting themselves without being too obvious, as Trump dislikes overt self-promotion. The stakes are high, as Trump's choice is likely to be seen as his successor-in-waiting, and the appearances also serve as an opportunity to connect with key primary state voters.
