The Perfect Frankenstein's Monster
Trump's pick for VP, J.D. Vance, has deep connections to the ultra conservative Heritage Foundation, Project 2025 and rightwing tech billionaires.
J.D. Vance was the self-described "never Trump guy," who once called the former president "America's Hitler." Now he is Trump's running mate, a MAGA culture warrior, and now has the strong backing of anti-government tech bros and crypto billionaires like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk. Governor Tim Walz accurately described J.D. Vance as “the perfect Frankenstein monster created by the Heritage Foundation.”
