Tier 1

Chris Christie

·         Prominent early Trump endorser, very interested in being VP.

·         We have a ton of research on him.
Bob Corker

·         Hasn’t endorsed Trump but has praised him publicly and recently. Solid foreign policy, legislative and executive (as mayor) credentials.

·         We are doing dailies, compiling top hits on him.
Jeff Sessions

·         Prominent early Trump endorser, lots of VP buzz, solid national security, legislative, and judiciary credentials.

·         We are doing dailies, compiling top hits on him.

Tier 2

Mary Fallin

·         Woman, former Congresswoman, 2 term Lt Gov and 2nd term Gov.

·         Lots of VP buzz but it’s mostly self-generated. Trump did say she’d be a smart choice.

·         We are doing dailies, compiling top hits on her.
Tom Cotton

·         Iraq/Afghanistan veteran, prominent Iran deal critic, popular Senator, young.

·         Very little VP buzz recently.

·         We are doing dailies, have compiled top hits on him.
Marsha Blackburn

·
Jim Jordan
