Despite digressions involving cats and a hiccup on abortion policy, Donald Trump has grown close to JD Vance, talking with him almost every day and cheering on his frequent TV appearances.

Hillary Clinton has criticized Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance for suggesting that families could ease the financial burden of child care by tapping grandparents for more help, saying that the Ohio senator is “just not in touch with what goes on in the lives and the working careers of the vast majority of Americans.

Vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is preparing to debate Ohio Sen. JD Vance on CBS News in less than two weeks. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is standing in for Vance during Walz's preparations,

Since I started writing about J.D. Vance in 2022, I’ve repeatedly noticed his use of a certain rhetorical technique that I’ve come to think of as his trademark. He’ll claim vehemently to agree with one of Donald Trump’s various provocative or absurd claims—that the 2020 presidential election was stolen,

Despite his staff learning that the cat-eating story wasn’t true on the day of his first post, Vance doubled down and kept going.

"I'm still recovering a little bit from the experience of trying to inhabit the mind of Mike Pence," Buttigieg recently joked.

Democrat Tim Walz and Republican JD Vance will face off next month in the only scheduled U.S. vice presidential debate, a chance for each man to reinforce his running mate's message to voters just weeks before the Nov.

The Trump-Vance ticket’s unbridled racist attacks on Haitian immigrants in Ohio – as a proxy for attacking immigrants and people of color everywhere – continue unabated deep into the second week of serving as a centerpiece of a campaign that was searching for a way to gain traction against Kamala Harris.

Tim Walz enlisted the help of Pete Buttigieg as he prepares for the vice-presidential debate on Oct. 1. The Transportation Secretary is reportedly serving as JD Vance ’s stand-in during policy sessions and mock debates on the campaign trail.

Even though J.D. Vance hasn't always been on the same page as Donald Trump when he talks about policy plans, the campaign is happy to let him loose.
