Trump says ā€˜youā€™re voting for the president ā€¦ youā€™re voting for meā€™ when asked about vice-presidential pick

Donald Trump has said that vice presidential picks have ā€œvirtually no impactā€ on elections when asked about JD Vanceā€™s fitness for office, in an apparent attempt to downplay his running mateā€™s role on the Republican ticket.

Trump made the comments during a combative interview at the annual convention of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) in Chicago. Asked by the Fox News journalist Harris Faulkner whether Vance would be ready to take over ā€œon day one, if he has to beā€, Trump avoided answering directly and instead downplayed the significance of the Vanceā€™s role.

    Thereā€™s a non-zero chance that old, fat, hateful, felonious rapist dies in the next four years. Thereā€™s no way he could become president any other way. Itā€™s not like the weird couch fucker had dignity before this.

        He already has the worldā€™s best 24/7 security and people are still getting shots off at him. That grave is toast.
