- Melania Trump told Axios that she prefers Tucker Carlson as the best Vice President candidate for Donald Trump.
- The odds on Tucker Carlson to be Trump’s VP are long (+3500) while other candidates sit with much shorter odds.
- Odds of this nature can change rapidly, as value holds on Bovada while BetOnline has the potential payout much lower (+1200).
NEW YORK – On Thursday, Former First Lady Melania Trump made headlines for her suggestion as to who should run alongside her husband as the Vice President.
With Mike Pence and Donald Trump’s relationship clearly noted, many have looked toward Kristi Noem or Vivek Ramaswamy as the leaders of the VP ticket.
But Melania has claimed that former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson would be the best sidekick to a Trump 2024 campaign.
At Bovada, betting on Tucker Carlson to be the vice president for Trump in 2024 has +3500 odds (or 35 times your money). With Noem (+400), Ramaswamy (+800) and other names like Nikki Haley (+900) having much shorter odds, there seems to be a lot of value here given Melania’s message.
The value proves to be extreme as even at BetOnline, Tucker Carlson’s odds to become the Republican Vice President sit at +1200 – seventh on the list.
As odds can change rapidly, getting in a bet of this nature before the media and bettors change the presidential election betting odds is critical.
Per Axios:
“But here’s an interesting twist: Melania Trump is an advocate for picking Tucker Carlson, the booted Fox News star. She thinks Carlson would make a powerful onstage extension of her husband, a source close to Trump told us. The former first lady has made few campaign appearances this time around — but a Trump-Carlson ticket might encourage her to hit the trail.”
REPORT: Melania Trump is pushing for Tucker Carlson to be Donald Trump’s VP pick for the 2024 election according to Axios.
