Ben Carson, who is reportedly on the committee to choose presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s future running mate, said Thursday that Democrats may be among those considered for the role. But Trump walked those comments back to Fox News on Friday, saying, “I would rule him or her out [based on being a Democrat]. We want to have a great ticket.” The reality-TV star went on to say that Democrats have created too many problems in American politics: “The real unemployment rate is probably 20 percent,” he said. “I’m going to pick a great Republican and we’re going to have a tremendous victory.”
