Donald Trump and J.D. Vance
Donald Trump and J.D. Vance
The Project 2025 Ticket
Donald Trump has officially picked J.D. Vance as his running mate.
Here’s the deal: Trump picked J.D. Vance as his running mate because Vance will do what Mike Pence wouldn’t on January 6: bend over backwards to enable Trump and his extreme MAGA agenda, even if it means breaking the law and no matter the harm to the American people.
As Trump’s running mate, Vance will make it his mission to enact Trump’s Project 2025 agenda at the expense of American families. He thinks Project 2025 is full of “good ideas,” and together with Trump, will ban abortion nationwide, cut taxes for their rich friends, and much more.
Here’s everything you need to know about Trump’s VP pick J.D. Vance:

J.D. Vance denies the results of the 2020 election
- Vance admitted he would not have immediately certified the 2020 election results, echoed Trump’s baseless election denial lies, and has repeatedly downplayed the violent January 6 insurrection. Even Mike Pence, Trump’s last VP, accepted the results of the 2020 presidential election.

J.D. Vance wants to rip away health care from millions

At the end of the day, J.D. Vance’s agenda is far-right extremism
