WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Donald Trump has picked Senator JD Vance of Ohio, a once-fierce critic turned loyal ally, as his Republican running mate. Trump unveiled his pick on his Truth Social social media network on Monday as supporters gathered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for the Republican National Convention (RNC), an extravaganza turbocharged by the attempted assassination of the former president two days earlier. “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 wrote. A venture capitalist, Vance, 39, graduated from Yale Law School and served in the US military during the Iraq War before being elected to represent Ohio in the Senate. He will represent a younger generation in the November 5 presidential election, which features Trump, 78, and President Joe Biden, 81, who is running on the Democratic Party ticket with Vice President Kamala Harris, 59.
