TBH, I was expecting Vivek or Tulsi, but he knows them better. Let's trust his choice.

"Peter Thiel dished about two Kremlin invites to private Putin meetings" "Vance isn’t just a friend of Silicon Valley’s worst billionaires; he is their creation. Peter Thiel, the billionaire tech investor turned digital defense contractor, enabled his entire political career."

I'm a Trump supporter but I'm on the fence about his VP pick, it would be a tough choice to make but there must be some strategic reasoning behind it as well I just hope he's an asset and will be serious about the job.

"Trump" the way to move forward is to "Add Vance"

Bold pick. Not a woman, not chocolate and a clearly bleached male. Very brave.

[Ellesar]

Ahh, but Sen. Vance's are as you Americans say, 'persons of colour', so obviously if that matters then that's also a covered base.

Wow, a pick based on the character not dei.

Vance is the perfect choice for trump. No morals, no principles, no ethics, no decency, no convictions, a willing liar. Perfect. For trump.
