Hard to disagree with what he's saying. Glad to see a young person finally be selected

Is this what it’s like to have a VP not laughing the whole time?

[alexmacias]

Not a Trump supporter at all here, but I have to say that this speech was much better than I thought it might be. Glad he avoided incendiary remarks or flat out lies. He seems very well spoken.

As a former democratic. He's got my vote 👍

This is in my opinion one of the best acceptance speeches, or of any speeches during a presidential campaign / election I have heard in my lifetime.

JD Vance is incredible, brilliant, compassionate, but tough! Impressive and America deserves a vice president as great as him! And, together, Trump-Vance perfect mix will make America great again! God bless America.

Loved his stories. Down to earth person. He is not a politician but a blue-collar person.
That is what we need to run our country. God bless America 🇺🇸 🙏

Straight up, Republican Trump guy who wants to say worst pick ever. Anyone who has ever listened to Ramaswamy speaking in public and then listen to this guy 🙄

[mattbnr]

Didn’t he flame trump a few years ago? Call him terrible or something? Now he’s vice president?

I love how Vance kept his speech so raw and real !, ! Not fake hiding skeletons of his pass ! A real man of honor devotion and grace! Not ashamed of Mothers pass, not resentful understands his mothers addiction nor hides what is really going on in this country !
