DORAL (CBSMiami/AP) — GOP Presidential Candidate Donald Trump may have mocked Marco Rubio, calling him "Little Marco" during the senator's campaign. However, that's not stopping Trump from considering Rubio as his running mate, should he win the nomination.
During an interview with USA Today, Trump said he likes Rubio and has thought of having him run as vice president.
Trump also mentioned candidate John Kasich and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker as possible picks.
Walker got wind of Trump's words and said any talk of him being Trump's running mate is shocking and breathtaking.
Walker endorsed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and campaigned with him in the days leading up to his primary win in Wisconsin last week.
Walker was asked Monday about comments Trump made in a new interview praising him.
Trump criticized Walker and his policies while campaigning in Wisconsin.
Walker said he "can't even fathom" being Trump's vice president.
But Walker isn't ruling out possibly being Cruz's running mate, saying "that's so far off."
He said under a contested convention, the delegates and not the nominee may pick who the vice presidential candidate is.
But Walker added, "I'm just happy being governor."
