Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin is offering her enthusiastic endorsement of Republican presidential contender Donald Trump, saying she supports the New York billionaire “100 percent.”
Fallin also said Wednesday she’s honored to be mentioned as a possible vice presidential candidate and would be happy to consider such an offer.
Fallin said her priority is to elect a conservative, pro-business Republican who is strong on national defense, and that she believes Trump is that candidate.
The two-term governor has not previously endorsed any of the GOP candidates for president. U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas won Oklahoma’s March presidential primary with 34 percent of the vote over Trump, who was second.
Fallin said she hasn’t been contacted by Trump or anyone with his campaign about running as vice president.
These are dark days. That so many opportunists and craven political cowards have risen so highly in the ranks at our state capitol is an indictment – it is our shame as conservatives.
Now, on the other hand she is probably thinking it might be nice to get out before the public fully starts to absorb the implications of the fact that state government is becoming an incompetent, ineffective third world apparatus under her watch.
