Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., refused to get involved in discussion about being former President Donald Trump's potential running mate in the general election.

Blackburn is among those to be mentioned as a possible vice-presidential choice for Trump, the clear front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

"All of my energy is going to make certain that @realDonaldTrump wins and his candidates win," Blackburn posted Saturday night on X. "That's how we will get our country back."

Blackburn also commented on Sunday after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended his presidential campaign. That leaves former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley as Trump's only remaining opponent for the GOP nomination.

"Good on @RonDeSantis for allowing us to unify. Your turn, @NikkiHaley," Blackburn posted Sunday on X. "The @GOP must unite around @realDonaldTrump to defeat Joe Biden."

Blackburn endorsed Trump for president in April.

"Under President Trump, our economy was booming, gas prices were low, and inflation was under control. Our border was secure, our adversaries feared us, & our military was strong," Blackburn posted April 17 on X.

"I am proud to endorse Donald Trump for President and can't wait until he's back in the White House."
