FORMER US president Donald Trump praised his choice for vice president, JD Vance, during a jubilant speech in Florida on Wednesday (6).
During the speech, he was particularly keen to highlight Vance’s fighting spirit.
“Our next vice president is quite the fighter,” Trump told his supporters. “Whenever I ask him to face our critics on television, he jumps at the chance. He’ll go straight onto CNN or MSNBC and take them head-on.”
Trump made sure to mention Vance’s wife Usha, describing her as “absolutely remarkable and beautiful”.
Usha, who comes from an Indian background and works as a lawyer in San Francisco, has been a steady supporter of her husband throughout the campaign.
At just 40 years old, Vance is set to become America’s youngest-ever vice president.
Speaking at the rally, he thanked Trump and promised to help rebuild the American economy.
He said, “We’ve just seen the biggest political comeback ever in this country. With president Trump leading the way, we’ll create the strongest economic recovery America has ever had.”
He’s stirred up quite a bit of controversy lately, particularly with his remarks about immigration and women’s rights.
