While rumors circulated that former president Donald Trump will announce his vice president selection before tonight's presidential debate, his lips have been sealed so far.

Trump told reporters on Saturday he has already decided his running mate. He said the individual will likely be at the debate against President Joe Biden on Thursday, June 27 in Atlanta.

Plenty of names have been thrown around including Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, and Florida's own Sen. Marco Rubio. Vance, Burgum, Rubio, and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott are all expected to be in attendance.
