Former president Donald Trump spent more than one and a half hours delivering a rambling, ranting stump speech at a rally meant to support Ohio Senate candidate JD Vance, but spent far more time rehashing old grievances and boasting of purported accomplishments than telling Ohioans why they should vote for the man he endorsed eight days ago.
Mr Vance, a former venture capitalist and author who once described Mr Trump as “cultural heroin” and said the ex-reality TV host was leading “the white working class to a very dark place”, spoke several hours before the former president arrived at the Delaware, Ohio venue.
