Jan. 20, 2025, may indicate the first day of the most significant four centuries of our life. That’s the day that President Trump did take the oath of office, place his hands on a Bible, and put an end to the catastrophe Joe Biden caused domestically and abroad. The time will come when the fight to keep America will really begin.
Â
President Trump certainly has the man of his choice at this time, but as our 47th leader, he will encounter even greater difficulties than he did as our 45th. The press, the heavy position, the Democrats, and, yes, even some establishment Republicans will fight harder and dirtier than they ever have before to prevent Trump from implementing his America First agenda.
Â
Trump needs a true warrior and a true friend to serve as his running girlfriend because the stakes are high and there are many effective adversaries in his path. He needs someone who will have his back, particularly when the going gets tough, who’s bright, powerful, and a genuine believer on plan.  ,
Â
There’s just one person who fits the bill: Sen. J. D. Vance.  ,
Â
The Ohio Republican has consistently established himself as one of Trump’s most powerful friends. He’s a mercilessly powerful message, especially on hostile systems, and would do strongly against Kamala Harris in a conversation. He has fought back against globalists who want the sons and daughters of America to combat wars in other countries. He’s in unison with Trump on taxes, trade, and monetary policy. And he wo n’t surrender, as far too many Republicans have, on border security, illegal immigration, and protecting American workers.
I’ve watched Vance tightly since he was elected. He has n’t let Washington make a change, and he has remained true to what he believes, even when that meant challenging the establishment of his own party. To put it differently, he has a neck — a unique virtue in Washington.  ,
Â
It’s not hard to discover why. Powerful men are made of tough times, and Vance has undoubtedly faced hard times. He had a tough upbringing in Ohio amid the effects of oligarchs economic and trade laws that Americans across the Midwest know all too well: shuttered companies, broken households, lack of opportunity, and a drug illness. After graduating from high school, he enlisted in the Marine Corps and served his country respectfully, including in Iraq. After graduating from Ohio State and Yale Law, he became a best writer and started generating jobs in the private sector.  ,
Â
His political rise was n’t easy either. When he announced his intention to run for the Senate, he faced significant odds and a field of well-known and well-funded main rivals. But Vance stood up, connected deeply with the citizens, earned Trump’s support, and won big. Due in large part to Vance’s skill on the campaign trail and impressive discussion shows, he overcame the critics and an abundance of money from rich communist donors to defeat Democrat darling and former presidential candidate Tim Ryan in the general vote.
Â
Vance is battle- tested, brilliant, and has proven he has what it takes. In the most crucial swing states, he would be a powerful voice for Trump’s agenda. If, God forbid, something were to happen to Donald Trump, he is the , only , vice- presidential contender who would continue Trump’s legacy rather than returning the GOP to the dark days of old.  ,
Â
Trump should n’t surround himself with standard politicians and placeholders who will work against his agenda because the fight ahead of us, the fight for our country’s future, is too crucial. Trump must surround himself with real allies, real fighters, and real friends.
Â
If Trump taps J. D. Vance, he will send a clear message to the nation that he’s playing to win.
