Former President Donald Trump selected Sen. JD Vance as his running mate. Trump announced the news on his Truth Social network at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. Vance, 39, first gained national attention with his 2016 memoir “Hillbilly Elegy. He was elected to the Senate in 2022 and has been an ardent supporter of Trump’s policy agenda, particularly in trade, foreign policy, and immigration. However, this will be his first venture into national politics. Vance has often faced criticism for his posts that targeted President Biden. His selection for vice president is hoped to energize Trump’s loyal base given his frequent appearances in conservative media circles.

Despite his controversial remarks about Trump in his early political career, Vance eventually changed his opinion, praising Trump’s presidential tenure. His relationship with Trump has been instrumental in his political ascent, earning him the former president’s endorsement during his 2022 Senate campaign. As a senator, Vance has shown willingness to work on bipartisan issues significant to his state. His strong rapport with Trump added to his appeal as a running mate. The future of his political career is closely tied to Trump’s political base and the spread of his policies.
