The Biden campaign released a statement in reaction to former President Donald Trump’s declaration of Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his vice presidential candidate.
In an official statement, Biden campaign chairwoman Jen O’Malley Dillon stated that Trump selected Vance as “his running mate” because he “will do what” former Vice President Mike Pence “wouldn’t on January 6th.”
“Donald Trump picked J.D. Vance as his running mate because Vance will do what Mike Pence wouldn’t on January 6: bend over backwards to enable Trump and his extreme MAGA agenda, even if it means breaking the law and no matter the harm to the American people.”
“As Trump’s running mate, Vance will make it his mission to enact Trump’s Project 2025 agenda at the expense of American families,” the statement continues. “This is someone who supports banning abortion nationwide while criticizing exceptions for rape and incest survivors; railed against the Affordable Care Act, including its protections for millions with preexisting conditions; and has admitted he wouldn’t have certified the free and fair election in 2020.”
