Republican presidential candidate Trump welcomed the dismissal of the pending classified documents case against him
has selected JD Vance, a republican senator from Ohio, as his running mate, elevating a politician who once criticised the former president but has since become one of his most stalwart defenders.
The selection of James David Vance, author of the bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy, could increase the odds of Trump supporters turning out for the November 5th election as the Ohio native is deeply popular with the republican candidate’s base. Meanwhile, Mr Trump welcomed the dismissal of the pending classified documents case against him on Monday, as federal investigations into the security breaches behind the botched attempt to assassinate him at a rally in Pennsylvania at the weekend continued.
The announcement added another detail to an extraordinary 36 hours in the life of the republican nominee. He welcomed the decision through his usual channel of Truth Social, where he repeated his wish to help “in uniting our nation after the horrific events” in which one spectator lost his life during the shooting in Butler.
