Trump VP pick: Former president announces Vance as his running mate

Former President Donald Trump has picked Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate, placing a young, ideological ally alongside him on the Republican 2024 ticket.
Trump announced Vance would be his running mate on Monday, writing on Truth Social that the Ohio Republican is "the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States." abc7ne.ws/3S91FEa

I know JD probably so flattered by being selected; however Trump is very strategic. JD has the right name at the right time. People are extremely expendable to some people.

"The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, it's very brightly colored, it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." ~ Bill Hicks ~

Seems like a good guy but can someone explain why he wouldn't pick Tim Scott or Vivek or Tulsi or Rubio, a minority or woman to help win over some of those Undecided Voters. What new voters does this guy bring in? What is the strategic move behind this? Seems like Vance would bring in White working class voters who mostly support Trump anyway, why would he not pick a minority to help secure more minority votes which is something he's always struggled with.

[@C.P101]

Total Jack-ass move; almost negates the fact Trump had an attempt on his life the other day - U.S. is in the 4th turning anyway; mistrust in government institutions and our currency is rising. Why even bother with this crap these days?

There is no need to go BACK, only to PROCEED. Conventions are celebrations of life and liberty.

I am overwhelmingly glad, that Donald was so lucky, is a fighter and will be our next president. I fly only on one wing: MAGA. I vote for the felon, admire his tortured family and esteem his new VP. I love this country and came (1997) to see America grow in wisdom, strength and prosperity for all the people who respect our laws and wish to live and thrive here. With gods help, we will, with Donald even faster than I ever could in my former homeland, Austria. Thank you America. I know only one who may unite all of USA.
