There are a lot of people, myself included that despised Trump in 2015. His performance as president changed a lot of intelligent minds! Where is YOUR head at???

Let’s put Trump back in the W H with JV Vance for good economy, safety and a better nation!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[bsaver]

I hope he's not another backstabber like Pence

[luciferthefallenangel]

If only people did their research about him. He wants to cancel social security, tax more the middle class.

[kkrenken]

I’m surprised. I know almost nothing about him.

"He's a clone of trump on the issues." Well that's exactly why you picked Kamala.

Vance:" I'm so sorry I said all that bad stuff about you, Donald. I'm so sorry! Thank you for picking me....Sniff

I sort of expected The Honorable Mr. Vance to be the next Vice President. He'll be good for the country. 🇺🇸

This locks up the entire rust belt for Trump. The democratic party is finished...forever.

[karissaanne]

He's better and smarter than Cackling Kamala

[GRNE]

Are you telling me that we are getting a VP who actually admits he was wrong about the bad things he said about Trump on national television?! I can't wait til November!

[deltanu]

If is is running for VP he should be forced to resign from his Senate seat.

[StreetDocs]

Look at India being represented all up in Washington. Kamala, Vivek, Vance’s wife.

[angussssssssss]

Can’t wait for the Vance/Harris Debate 😂

[rapslove]

I hope the Democratic Party knows they will never win another office after what they've done

[DominikanYT]

An accomplished young educated man, That's a great pick!

[libralove]

Wonder how long he can keep a fly on his head.

[kathycper]

Kamala was against biden too. But when he wanted her for vice president everything changed.
