Donald Trump has picked Senator JD Vance as his running mate, in a move that could help the former president win votes across the crucial swing states of the US’s industrial Midwest.

Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, less than a decade ago, rose to prominence as a Trump critic. But over the last few years, Vance, 39, has emerged as a Trump loyalist, becoming one of his most vocal defenders in the Senate and a frequent surrogate on television as he called for the party to embrace Trump’s populist agenda. Vance could expand Trump’s appeal in the swing states. Indeed, he hails from the Rust Belt, which includes portions of the critical swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. He’s also a Marine veteran, and would be the second youngest vice president — tied with Richard Nixon — if Trump wins in November. Source: FT
