South Carolina Senator Tim Scott says he expects Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to select his vice presidential running mate in 60 days.
The pro-life lawmaker and former presidential candidate is often named as a possible s3election for Trump to become the next Vice President.
“We had no conversations about the VP pick, to be honest with you, to be clear. But we had a lot of conversations about the failures of Joe Biden and the success of Donald Trump,” the South Carolina Republican said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” yesterday.
Scott said he hopes Mr. Trump will pick someone “who helps the country unite and heal,” and he said he expects the decision to be made in the next 60 days.
“l certainly expect to have a decision from President Trump in the next 60 days or so, but he did not bring it up. I certainly didn’t bring it up,” he said.
“I’m excited that in this nation a poor kid from South Carolina can rise to the level of being a United States senator,” he said. “It just tells me that all things are possible for kids growing up in poverty today. Listen to this show and know that all things are possible for your future.”

Trump has reminded pro-life voters at recent rallies that there are important consequences on abortion for not voting for him for president over Joe Biden.
Trump says pro-life Americans need to vote for him because Joe Biden will push abortions up to birth if he is elected for another four year term.
Biden has repeatedly said he would sign measures to put Roe v. Wade back in place, overturn every pro-life law nationwide and appoint radically pro-abortion judges to the Supreme Court to overturn the Dobbs decision. In addition he’s already push abortion funding, turning VA clinics into abortion clinics and fought in court to force pro-life states to kill babies in abortions.
On the other hand, Trump crafted the most pro-life record of any president since Roe v. Wade.
But, as Trump reminds voters, he can’t stop Biden’s abortion agenda if he’s not elected.
Trump said at one point during a recent speech that “getting elected is also important … a lot of bad things will happen beyond abortion if you don’t win.”
Trump also told supporters that abortion is a risky issue for Republican candidates, and “you have to get elected” in order to get anything done about protecting more babies from abortions.
The Biden administration has employed a whole-of-government approach to promoting abortion, using every lever of power at its disposal to make abortions more available and more common, with no thought of the innocent unborn children who will die or the mothers who could be harmed.
“This administration has done more to bring harm to mothers and their unborn babies through abortion than any other administration,” said Carol Tobias of National Right to Life.
