Vice President-elect JD Vance made a statement on Monday suggesting that had Donald Trump lost the 2024 election, he could have faced potential legal consequences. Vance's remarks followed special counsel Jack Smith's decision to drop the election subversion and classified documents cases against Trump.
Vance expressed his belief that the aforementioned prosecutions were driven by political motives. He emphasized the importance of preventing similar situations from occurring in the future to safeguard the integrity of the country's democratic processes.
