The big event at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday was the final speech of the night from Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance and he did not disappoint.
Vance highlighted his family, his upbringing and the challenges he has faced. He highlighted the disastrous policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the fact that Biden has been a terrible leader for decades.
He talked about the amazing economy under Trump and vowed to make American workers a priority in the next Trump administration.
From FOX News:
Ohio Sen. JD Vance, the Republican Party’s nominee for vice president, took to the stage of the Republican National Convention and laid out his argument to send Former President Donald Trump back to the White House, giving the audience a look back at his upbringing while hitting themes of economic populism aimed at the working class.
“Together, we will protect the wages of American workers,” Vance said, arguing that another Trump administration would stop letting the Chinese Communist Party build “their middle class on the backs” of American citizens.
Vance promised not to import foreign labor, not to “cater” to Wall Street, and not to buy foreign energy.
Vance also touched on Trump’s “America First” agenda, promising to make allies pay their fair share for world peace instead of betraying “the generosity of the American taxpayer.”On foreign policy, Vance promised that the administration would send service members to war “only when we must.”
