Political News and Conservative Analysis About Congress, the President, and the Federal Government
Rupert Murdoch, the billionaire owner of several right-of-center news outlets, was not happy with the choice, nor were establishment Republicans such as Sen. Lindsey Graham . Republican political operatives decried Vance as too extreme and an electoral liability that made the race much more competitive than it had been prior. And to this day, Republican politicians refuse to offer their support for Vance as the second name atop their party’s ticket.
For all the hysteria surrounding Trump’s selection of Vance as his running mate, the freshman senator from Ohio is still the right man for the job, and ejecting him from the ticket would be political suicide. To replace him at this moment would be an admission that the decisive and assertive decision-making that the people crave in their political leadership cannot be found in the Trump-led ticket.
In the weeks since he became the Republican Party’s nominee for vice president, Vance has weathered a storm of criticism that primarily centers on a sarcastic comment he made in 2022 about “childless cat ladies” controlling the Democratic Party. The broader point that the senator was making had nothing to do with childless women who have cats but rather how government and corporations have made it more difficult to have and raise families, and people who do not want children are less likely to want to enact policies that help those who do.
