Win or lose, JD Vance will be the new and improved Donald Trump in 30 days
With just 28 days until Election Day, I can’t predict who will win. But after last week’s vice-presidential debate, I predict Sen. JD Vance of Ohio will be the frontrunner for the 2028 GOP nomination.
Even if Democrats win the White House in November, Vance will instantly become the most sought-after headliner for GOP fundraisers ahead of the 2026 midterms. On Capitol Hill, the junior senator from Ohio will be a power player in the fight to pick a successor to Sen. Mitch McCon...

Vance twists Trump’s history on ObamaCare, claims he ‘saved’ the law
Vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) falsely claimed during Tuesday's debate that former President Trump “saved” the Affordable Care Act, the latest attempt by Vance and Trump to rewrite the GOP presidential nominee’s record.
Trump "actually implemented some of these regulations when he was president of the United States," Vance said during the vice presidential debate against Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D).

Who was the JD Vance voters saw at the debate?
Well that was ... unexpected. The first question is, was JD Vance kidnaped or did he voluntarily agree to swap places with his body double? The inoffensive, agreeable, occasionally empathetic GOP VP hopeful that showed up for the debate is not the JD Vance that ran for the Senate, turned up for podcasts or goes out and campaigns for Donald Trump.
