There was a clash of opinions during a Bill Maher panel Friday night over whether former President Trump would pick his former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley as his vice president.

Following his major victory at the Iowa caucuses, Trump is now widely seen as the presumptive Republican nominee, which is already fueling conversations on who his running mate would be. After months of hedging on the subject, Haley told voters in New Hampshire this week "I don’t want to be anybody’s vice president" while Trump said at a rally Friday night she "probably" won't be on the ticket.

During the "Overtime" segment of his HBO show, Maher asked his panel who is on Trump's running mate short list, first naming Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., who has gotten VP buzz in recent weeks.

"She used to be a normal and then became a Trump crazy," Maher said.

Despite the ongoing tension between Trump and Haley, MSNBC host Ari Melber responded by saying Trump would pick the former South Carolina governor, sparking an immediate "no" from Maher.

"I think he's teamed up with people who've said way worse things- [Ohio Senator] JD Vance wrote a whole book and launch his career attacking Trump," Melber said.

"He doesn't care about any of that," Maher responded.
