Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance is set to appear alongside former President Donald Trump at a campaign event in Butler, Pennsylvania, this Saturday. A campaign official confirmed Vance's participation, where he is expected to deliver remarks.
Vance, who was chosen as Trump's running mate shortly after a recent assassination attempt in July, has been vocal about his support for Trump's leadership. During his first campaign appearance in Milwaukee, Vance praised Trump for calling for national unity and calm in the face of adversity.
Following a second assassination attempt last month, Vance shifted the focus away from Trump, stating that the responsibility to tone down rhetoric lies with Democrats. He emphasized that despite some controversial statements from individuals on their side, it is their candidate who has been targeted.
Speaking at an event in Sparta, Michigan, Vance highlighted the asymmetry in the situation, pointing out that if a similar incident had occurred involving Vice President Kamala Harris, he would have reflected on how to improve their approach.
The upcoming event in Pennsylvania is expected to draw significant attention as Vance and Trump continue to rally support for their campaign. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
