Former President Donald Trump has picked Sen. J.D. Vance — an author and former venture capitalist who has been dismissive of climate change concerns but outspoken on rail safety — to be his vice presidential running mate.

Trump, the Republican nominee in November’s presidential race, announced his pick Monday on the first day of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

Vance beat out other running-mate finalists, including North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Sens. Tim Scott of South Carolina and Marco Rubio of Florida. Trump announced his decision on social media as delegates were casting their nomination votes.
 

“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,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, the platform he owns, referring to mainly swing states in the election.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Well a bit of positive news about JD:

Vance last year introduced the “Drive American Act,” S. 2962, which would repeal the federal tax credit for electric vehicles and instead offer tax credits for U.S.-made vehicles powered only by gasoline or diesel.
