NBC News: “With the clock ticking last week to the Republican National Convention, Donald Trump met privately to discuss his running mate search with two of his closest advisers: his sons.”
“The conversation quickly turned tense when the former president indicated that he was leaning toward Doug Burgum, until recently the largely unknown governor of North Dakota — but someone whose low-maintenance, no-drama personality would never threaten to outshine Trump.”
“That’s when Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump chimed in.”
Said a GOP operative: “Don Jr. and Eric went bat—- crazy: ‘Why would you do something so stupid? He offers us nothing. They were basically all like ‘JD, JD, JD.”
