J.D. Vance

Vice President of the United States

Before Donald Trump made him vice president, J.D. Vance called him “America’s Hitler,” “cultural heroin,” and “reprehensible,” and said he was a “Never Trump guy.” Then he deleted the posts, took the endorsement, and became Trump’s most fluent defender. The case against him is his own: what he said, and what he now does with the office.
