James David Vance, 39, now Donald Trump’s running mate, showed a political metamorphosis (or change) from a sharp critic to a staunch defender of the former Republican president. A successful soldier and author, elected from Ohio, he quickly established himself in Congress by championing themes dear to Trump: the fight against immigration and economic security. His shift to Trumpism contrasts with his past harsh criticism of the billionaire, once calling him “stupid” and “disgusting,” going so far as to compare him to “America’s Hitler.”
From “Everything But Trump” to MAGA
An outspoken Christian, he does not hesitate to publicly criticize the Biden administration, opposing legal attacks against Trump as a threat to American democracy. Vance made a significant political change, at first he was a prominent member of the “Don’t Trump” movement during the 2016 election. Later, he received the endorsement of the former president in the 2022 Ohio Republican primaries. Vance is a business developer and high-profile author best “Hillbilly Elegy.” His experience in Silicon Valley and his success as a writer made his people rich.
He does not believe in the results of the 2020 election
JD Vance marked the Republican circles with his doubts about the actions of the former Vice President Mike Pence during the certification of the results of the presidential election 2020. his conviction is even against the highest opinion within his party, especially on the legitimacy of the election results.
As a testament to his loyalty, Vance publicly supported him during his trial on payments to porn star, Stormy Daniel, while becoming a vocal advocate on media platforms such as Fox News and in interviews with Donald Trump Jr. In Congress, he opposes increased foreign aid, especially in the context of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, in line with major divisive attitudes within the Republican Party.
“Anti-abortion campaigner”
JD Vance has often expressed his Christian faith as a moral and political compass. He has often invoked his religion to guide his positions on various social and political issues. In his speeches and interviews, Vance has emphasized the importance of his faith in his personal life and in his political decision-making.
At the announcement of his running mate Donald Trump, his opponent Joe Biden reacted strongly: “He and Trump want to increase taxes for the middle class while favoring tax cuts for the rich” by calling the council in Ohio of the extremist who “rejects the results of the 2020 elections, supports a nationwide ban on abortion,” he added on his X account (formerly Twitter).
