YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDonald Trump tapped JD Vance as his running mate, elevating to the Republican presidential ticket a venture capitalist-turned-senator whose embrace of populist politics garnered national attention and made him a rising star in the party.
“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 said, making the announcement Monday on his Truth Social platform as the Republican National Convention began in Milwaukee.
The announcement comes days after a failed assassination attempt upended what had already been a chaotic presidential contest. Trump was wounded in his right ear after shots rang out at a campaign rally Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. One attendee was fatally shot, and two others are in critical condition. The shooter was killed by the US Secret Service.
The gunfire at the rally, shadowed by a global uptick in political violence, was a grave reminder of the importance of the vice president, who would assume the Oval Office if the president were killed or unable to fulfill the duties of the job.
