“I think we need people in Washington who are fighters," the author and venture capitalist said in launching a GOP campaign for the open U.S. Senate seat.
J.D. Vance, a venture capitalist and author of the bestselling “Hillbilly Elegy,” said Thursday he’s running for Ohio’s open Senate seat, joining an already crowded field of Republicans. “I think we need people in Washington who are fighters — and not just fighters, but smart fighters,” Vance said in Middletown, Ohio. “There are a lot of fighters in Washington, D.C. They just fight for the wrong things.” Wow. Just overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to my friends at Middletown Tube and the whole town for giving me such a welcome. Help us out if you can. https://t.co/ZNPUHVwDXc— J.D. Vance (@JDVance1) July 2, 2021More Related News
