Former President Donald Trump announced Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his running mate on Monday.
The much-anticipated moment occurred just as Trump was being formally nominated as the Republican presidential nominee at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Trump announced on Truth Social:
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. 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….

I did not want a US senator, any senator.
That said, let’s get behind Vance. I hope he is not a squish like so many senators.
MAGA!
Is this good? Guess I’ll read and learn.
MAGA squared!
Better than virtually all of the other ones supposedly considered. I’m good with it.
Excellent call. Counters age, privileged background claims. He will completely disarticulate Kamala Harris in a debate. I like it very much!
The only thing we could lose is the senate seat. Think DeWine’s selection.
Trump could have learned from Pence, Sessions to avoid US senators.
I just pray he’s the right choice; God knows, we don’t. On the bright side, it’s not Nikki!
J. D. Vance is nothing like either Pence or Sessions.
Vance is a globalist and graduate of the WEF young guns program. Not a fan of the choice and hope he turns out to be good
There’s something upcoming to enjoy. Vance demolishing KAM-ala.
It’s Trump’s pick so I support JD 100%.
Thought Vance would be the pick.
Now, let’s win!!!!
Now comes the left-wing news stories about all the things he did when he was in grammar school, high school, and college. Look for bimbos coming forward too. That's been the RAT playbook for years now. That's all they have.
Oh man, Sessions and his incompetence caused so much nonsense. I honestly completely memory holed his ‘service’ in Trump’s admin
Mike Pence was never a U.S. Senator. He was the governor of Indiana.
Good selection
J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio. 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.
No parasite finger prints like most in D.C. he earns his money the old fashion way earns it.
