Washington – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says that it’s too soon for him to talk about potential vice presidents, but says he’s getting closer to that time.

“We’re going to set up a committee in the not-too-distant future,” Trump told reporters Tuesday at Trump Tower as he celebrated his five-state sweep.

Trump has been asked about rival Ted Cruz’s move to vetting candidates. He says Cruz is “wasting his time.”

Trump was coy when asked whether he would put Chris Christie, who is in attendance, on his short list.

“I think he’s fantastic,” he said of the New Jersey governor.
