J.D. Vance RERUN

On the first day of the 2024 Republican National Convention, Donald Trump announced Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his Vice Presidential pick. The announcement came in the wake of much speculation about who Trump would pick and clearly demonstrates his desire to pick an intellectual successor to the MAGA agenda.

But aside from a Trump bootlicker and a shrewd, power-hungry political novice, who is J.D. Vance and what does he offer to the Trump-Vance ticket?

In order to better understand the moment in American politics that led to the rise of J.D. Vance, we're replaying an old episode that was recorded in the lead-up to the 2022 Ohio Senate Race. In it we discuss his bio, his 2022 political platform, and the close race he ran against Democrat Tim Ryan.
