 Picking him as his vice presidential nominee to share the ticket with him, what does that tell us about Donald Trump's thinking in terms of the direction he wants the campaign to go from here till November? J.D. Vance is a true believer. He's a mega diehard. He used to be an opponent of Donald Trump. I've also dug up some quotes from his past. He says, I find him reprehensible. I'm a never Trump guy. I never liked him. My God, what an idiot. This is all things that J.D. Vance has said about Donald Trump in the past.
