The decision will come after months of speculation about who his running mate will be. There will be a roll call vote on the presidential ticket, which includes the vice president, on Monday at the RNC. According to Col. Douglas Macgregor, an anonymous source said J.D. Vance is set to become Trump’s running mate. “Anonymous source reveals Trump will announce JD Vance as his VP pick at 4:30pm EST. What are your thoughts on JD Vance?” MacGregor wrote.

But he told Fox News Channel host Bret Baier in a call that he planned to make his pick Monday, the anchor said on air. The roll call vote to nominate that person is expected to take place Monday, according to a person with direct knowledge of the schedule who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The person cautioned that Trump could always change his mind. Trump is believed to have narrowed his list to three candidates: Ohio Sen. JD Vance, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. All come with different benefits and vulnerabilities. Vance is perhaps most ideologically aligned with the former president and would energize his base. At age 39, he would add a millennial contrast to the older men at the top of their parties’ tickets. But he has served in the Senate for less than two years. Burgum would bring business acumen and a steady hand, though Trump has noted his signing of a highly restrictive abortion law could be a drawback. Rubio is seen in the party as a respected voice on policy, and his background — as the son of Cuban immigrants and a Spanish speaker — could help Trump appeal to Latino voters. He could also help draw more moderate and establishment-minded voters and donors turned off by Trump’s coarse rhetoric. But Rubio’s candidacy is complicated by the fact that he lives in Florida, like Trump, and would likely need to move.

While addressing the nation after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, Joe Biden nearly made his most embarrassing blunder to date. Biden came dangerously close to saying “Make America Great Again.” “So tonight, I’m asking every American to recommit. To make America so,” Biden said before catching himself.

The 81-year-old also came dangerously close to using his opponent Trump’s signature slogan – ‘Make America Great Again’. Biden also referred to the ‘ballot box’ as the ‘battle box.’ “In America, we resolve our differences at the battle box,” Biden said. “That’s how we do it. At the battle box. Not with bullets,” he added.

The U.S. Constitution bans the electors who formally select the president and vice president from voting for both from their home state – and both Trump and Rubio call Florida home. While Rubio could likely have overcome that hurdle by moving out of state, some advisers were wary media coverage of such a move would be a distraction for the campaign. Among the top remaining contenders for the vice presidential nomination are Ohio U.S. Senator J.D. Vance and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, several sources have told Reuters in recent days. Still, some close to Trump had not ruled a dark horse contender as of midday Monday.

Donald Trump said on Truth Social it’s imperative independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. receive Secret Service protection. “In light of what is going on in the world today, I believe it is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. receive Secret Service protection — immediately. Given the history of the Kennedy Family, this is the obvious right thing to do!” Trump said. RFK Jr. said last year his request for Secret Service protection had been denied. “It is a hopeful sign for our country when a political opponent calls for one’s protection. Maybe our country can unite after all,” RFK Jr. said. It is a hopeful sign for our country when a political opponent calls for one's protection.

The Secret Service is authorized to protect major presidential and vice presidential candidates and their spouses within 120 days of a general presidential election. The Homeland Security secretary, in consultation with an advisory committee of House and Senate leadership, determines which candidates are in that “major” category. Among the factors the DHS secretary can consider, according to the Secret Service, is “whether the candidate is an independent or third-party candidate for President polling at 20% or more of the Real Clear Politics National Average for 30 consecutive days.” WATCH: It’s been more than 24 hours since Trump was mere inches from being assassinated and RFK Jr. has still not been given Secret Service Protection.

Kennedy Jr. campaign’s pleas for Secret Service protection for the independent presidential candidate are getting a boost in the wake of the shooting at former President Donald Trump’s rally. “We have a pending formal request already lodged with DHS last week,” Kennedy security consultant Gavin de Becker told POLITICO in a text message. De Becker’s private security firm has been handling the campaign’s private security, costing the campaign about $3 million to date in addition to $2.6 million in outstanding debts, according to the latest federal financial disclosures. The campaign has asked the Department of Homeland Security for protection services several times but has been denied so far. “DHS has received the request for protection and will review it with due consideration,” a DHS spokesperson said Sunday. “The review process relies on a thorough Secret Service threat assessment and a recommendation from a bipartisan Congressional Advisory Committee. Ultimately, based on that assessment and the recommendation of the advisory committee, the Secretary makes a determination.”

Donald Trump calls for Secret Service protection for Independent Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., especially after this weekend's assassination attempt, which almost took the former president's life.
