Former President Donald J. Trump announced on social media Monday that Ohio Senator J.D. Vance is his vice-presidential running mate.
“After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “J.D. honorably served our Country in the Marine Corps, graduated from Ohio State University in two years, Summa Cum Laude, and is a Yale Law School Graduate, where he was Editor of The Yale Law Journal, and President of the Yale Law Veterans Association. J.D.’s book, ‘Hillbilly Elegy,’ became a Major Best Seller and Movie, as it championed the hardworking men and women of our Country. J.D. has had a very successful business career in Technology and Finance, and now, during the Campaign, will be strongly focused on the people he fought so brilliantly for, the American Workers and Farmers in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Minnesota, and far beyond….”
“….As Vice President, J.D. will continue to fight for our Constitution, stand with our Troops, and will do everything he can to help me MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Congratulations to Senator J.D. Vance, his wife, Usha, who also graduated from Yale Law School, and their three beautiful children. MAGA2024!”
For months, Donald Trump, Jr. has stood behind Vance as the best choice for his father’s presidential ticket claiming he was a true believer in the Trump agenda.
Vance was not always with Trump’s populist agenda. He has even criticized Trump in the past.
Vance was critical of Trump in 2016, and six years later, Trump was critical of Vance even after endorsing him during his Senate 2022 campaign.
In the Senate, Vance has been an outspoken supporter of Trump and his votes often align with the former president’s positions. He opposed an Ukraine bill earlier this year, adopting Trump’s criticism of providing more aid.
