Former President Donald Trump has chosen Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his vice-presidential candidate. The announcement, made Monday on Trump's Truth Social account, marks the culmination of months of speculation surrounding the GOP ticket.
"J.D. Vance is the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States," Trump wrote, praising the 39-year-old first-term senator as a staunch ideological ally, ABC News reported. Vance, who was elected to the Senate in 2022, has quickly emerged as a prominent supporter of Trump's agenda.
