According to various reports, GOP presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump is leaning towards Indiana governor Mike Pence as his vice presidential running mate.

Pence has been palling around with Trump as of late and is said to be the favorite among the Trump kids who have an ever growing influence within the campaign.

Among the other possible picks on the Trump shortlist include former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie who was originally thought to be the early on favorite for the gig.

Either way Trump is expected to announce his decision during an 11 AM ET presser Friday from New York City.
