Donald Trump’s vice-presidential pick, JD Vance has vowed to fight for working-class Americans that he argued had been “cast aside and forgotten” by the Democrats.
The Ohio senator disclosed this in a primetime speech while introducing himself to millions of Americans.
He argued in his address at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, that Trump was the “last best hope” for Americans.
Trump and his running mate will challenge the Democratic White House ticket, currently Biden and his Vice-President, Kamala Harris, in November’s election.
In the speech, he charted his journey from a difficult childhood in small-town Ohio to the US Marines, Yale Law School, and finally the US Senate.
“From Iraq to Afghanistan, from the financial crisis to the Great Recession, from open borders to stagnating wages, the people who govern this country have failed and failed again.
“Donald Trump represents America’s last best hope to restore what – if lost – may never be found again,” he said.
