Instead of choosing a potential vice president from a battleground state or running with a past-competitor, Bauer said Trump should go with someone who balances him. Someone like Fallin, Bauer suggested.

“I think you’re going to see something different. I think what he will do is he won’t go with the norm that you pick a battleground state, and you pick somebody from that state or a rival candidate,” Bauer said. “I think he’s going to say, ‘Who can help me get the job done?’ And I think he needs some balance, and I like Mary Fallin for that reason.”
