Trump picks J.D. Vance as his running mate

Republican Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance, a US senator from Ohio and author of the bestselling memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” as his running mate, elevating a politician who once criticized the former president in acid terms but has since become one of his most stalwart defenders, AzVision.az reports citing Reuters. 

The news, the subject of intense speculation in recent weeks, emerged at the start of the four-day Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to nominate the party's presidential ticket. Soon after, Vance appeared at the event to the applause of party delegates but did not give any remarks.

“After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social media website.
