Former President Donald Trump has narrowed down his short list of potential running mates.
Trump called former GOP presidential opponent Vivek Ramaswamy and informed him that he was no longer in the running, but he did say he would consider the entrepreneur for a Cabinet post, the New York Post reported.
Ramaswamy, who initially ran against Trump in the primaries but quickly endorsed him after dropping out following the Jan. 15 Iowa caucuses, has emerged as a prominent surrogate for the 45th president on the campaign trail.
Bloomberg first reported Ramaswamy’s removal from the vice presidential candidate list, noting him as a candidate for Homeland Security secretary, among other roles.
