"If he asks me, of course I would think seriously about it," the Ohio senator told Fox News.
Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) on Thursday addressed rumors that he is on former President Donald Trump’s vice presidential shortlist nearly six months out of November’s election.
In an interview with Fox News, Vance said he has never discussed the prospect with Trump, the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee in the 2024 presidential race, but appeared open to accepting the position if it were offered to him.
“My simple answer is I wanna help him however I can,” Vance told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham. “If he asks me, of course I would think seriously about it. It would be a great honor. I also am happy to support the agenda in the United States Senate.”
Overall, Vance added, his main priority at the moment is continuing to serve Ohioans.
“Whether it’s supporting Trump’s agenda in the Senate or serving in some other role, we have got to bring good manufacturing jobs, good prosperity to the people of Ohio and the American heartland,” Vance said.
