Donald Trump ’s selection Monday of Senator J.D Vance to be his running mate elevates a figure with long-standing financial connections that are sure to play a role in the rest of the 2024 campaign.
Sen. J.D. Vance speaks to reporters in the spin room following the CNN Presidential Debate on June 27. The 39-year-old Vance worked for years as a venture capitalist and has spent more of his career in the business arena than in the political one.It was in this early phase of his career where Vance forged connections that then shaped his political career.
It was also during this era that Vance, in 2016, published a memoir called "Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis" that became a New York Times bestseller and rocketed him to national prominence.Vance described himself in the book as nobody special who shops at a Washington DC area Walmart and has "a nice job, a happy marriage, a comfortable home, and two lively dogs.
Vance and Sacks helped orchestrate a recent Silicon Valley fundraiser for Trump. The event was at Sacks’ home and marked Trump’s first visit to San Francisco in years. The foray into the deep blue areaAn evolution from Trump critic to insider Vance has often — like Trump — focused on what he calls Big Tech censorship of conservative voices and made that a theme of his time in Washington.
