Former President Trump and his team say campaigning is his debate prep, making multiple appearances over the weekend including an evangelical Christian conference in Washington D.C. and Temple University in Philadelphia. Trump also says he’s decided on his vice president pick. NBC’s Dasha Burns reports for Sunday TODAY.

But in that short time, he has already separated himself as the most consistently MAGA-aligned of the three GOP senators on former President Donald Trump's shortlist for a running mate. Vance, an Ohio Republican, has distinguished himself as a harsh critic of American engagement in foreign conflicts and as a populist on most domestic issues.

A year ago, Vance was one of 11 senators to vote against the annual bill authorizing and prioritizing the military's operations. He said he did so because the measure 'commits the United States to years of additional military aid for the war in Ukraine.' Rubio and Scott voted with the majority of Republicans and the overwhelming majority of the Senate to pass the policy bill for the Defense Department.
