So he is a sellout

[@Dstinct]

Perfect fit for Trump. More than willing to sell out his convictions and morals for any power he can get. When he initially came into politics, he was a never-trumper, and there are plenty of clips of him stating this. Once he was elected and saw how the tide was turning, like a lot of Republicans he latched his wagon onto Trump. The whiplash seeing his early interviews cut against his newer Fox ones is jarring.

[@nordan00]

Not a smart move in my opinion.

[@JohnMcmillin-br8tk]

Why? Came from nothing..became a marine,served in Afghanistan..graduated from Ohio state in 2 years..graduated Yale law school..wrote a best seller..successful businessman..became a senator..and is a great debater..married a woman of color. What makes him such a weak choice? Just curious.

[@lanceash]

Oh, it's a very smart move. He's just what the MAGA crowd want. He believes in exactly what they believe: Jesus, Guns, and the elimination all social programs. By the way, this is the second time I've posted this reply. UA-cam is deleting my comments.

Ok, my point was so clear, If a person wants to convince others he always tells the truth, then he shouldn’t forget what he said just couple years ago. Ok let the American voters decide what they believe in. God bless America.

[@Dogtroll]

Honestly, this really is a shocking pick for Trump. I just assumed that he would choose the honorable Mayor Hairy Balls as his running mate, it just seems like that would be a much better fit for his campaign.
Edit: Harry Baals not Hairy Balls sorry.

Completely predictable choice of another Kremlin-favorite mouthpiece. Vladivostok Vance is a disgrace to my state and country.

Populism and opportunism are two sides of the same coin.

[@rickmartin9420]

Well, this wouldn't have been the pick for putting the "fascist" rhetoric from the left to rest.

[@nuqwestr]

Fascism is submitting your individual rights to the STATE, as defined by Mussolini. Both Vance and Trump are proponents of classical-Liberalism and individual freedom, the opposite of Fascism.

ambition is really something, makes people change their minds

[@peabase]

He's a populist. That's practically a synonym for opportunist.

[@ruslanbinyaminov8814]

The first lady in the beginning lied when she said that he changed his mind on Trump when he choose by him - he did that about 5 years ago. Third tier journalism!

[@stupidburp]

I don't think that is what she said. She said that he shifted to gain support during his Congressional run some time ago.

Good choice with a humble background

[@peabase]

His opportunism is a less desirable trait.

Wasted Opportunity.

[@allisonladd7365]

Why hasn't he been doing interviews, speaking to us for 3 1/2 years?

[@Brimwald]

For those who are trying to understand this pick, Trump appears to have AZ, NV, GA, and NC in the bag based on polling, so he needs at least one rust belt state: PA, MI, WI, or MN to win with Vance from Ohio. Also, Vance on paper is the embodiment of Trump's referenced "forgotten man" born in poverty, divorced parents, mother struggled with drugs, joined the Marines after 9/11 and from there became very successful as a business man, writer, and Senator at only 39 years old.

[@nuqwestr]

Yes, especially PA, and why they invited head of the Teamsters Union to speak. Populist move, especially in Western PA.
