Melania Trump backs a Trump-Carlson presidential ticket: report

As the primary election moves closer and Trump remains the overwhelming frontrunner, sources have revealed to Axios who could potentially be on the Trump ticket come 2024. One source close to Trump told the outlet that former First Lady Melania Trump has expressed support for a ticket with Tucker Carlson as vice president.

The source said she believes Carlson, the widely popular former Fox News host who now hosts his own show on X, would make "a powerful onstage extension of her husband," the outlet reported.

In November, Trump was asked whether he would consider Carlson as a running mate, to which he said he would.

"I like Tucker a lot. I guess I would. I think I'd say I would because he's got great common sense. You know when they say that 'you guys are conservative' or 'I'm conservative.' It's not that we're conservative. We have common sense. We want to have safe borders. We want to have a wall because walls work."
