JD Vance, Donald Trump’s running mate, made his national political debut on Wednesday with a primetime speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC). The freshman senator from Ohio officially accepted Donald Trump’s offer and the Republican Party’s nomination to run for vice president and urged voters to "choose a new path. The people who govern this country have failed and failed again," he said. Trump and Vance will face the Democratic ticket of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in the November 5 election.
Vance contrasts Biden and Trump
Vance’s autobiographical speech was the first time many Americans heard from him. "I grew up in Middletown, Ohio, a small town where people spoke their minds, built with their hands and loved their God, their family, their community and their country with their whole hearts," Vance told Republicans gathered at the party convention. "But it was also a place that had been cast aside and forgotten by America’s ruling class in Washington," he said. "Career politicians" like President Joe Biden, Vance said, were responsible for trade policies and foreign wars that hurt communities like his. Vance cited Biden’s support of NAFTA, China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, and the Iraq war as examples of poor judgment on the president’s part. "For half a century he’s been a champion of every single policy initiative to make America weaker and poorer," he said. Trump reversed those negative trends in four years and could do more in four more years, Vance said, sparking chants of "four more years."
