Vance once warned that Trump could become 'America's Hitler' but has since become the ex-president's staunch ally.
Former President Donald Trump might want to avoid picking Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio as a running mate due to the potential for Vance to 'outshine' him as vice president, according to ex-Trump aide Alyssa Farah Griffin.Vance, who wrote the memoir Hillbilly Elegy before entering politics, has repeatedly been floated as Trump's potential VP pick, alongside names like North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.
Bookmakers have recently made the North Dakota governor a betting favorite.'Honestly, my money's starting to lean towards Burgum,' said Griffin. 'He's in many ways like Mike Pence with a higher net worth. He's somebody who's not going to come crossways with Trump, he's somebody who's steady ... And I think that the former president genuinely likes him.
