The MAGA Senator, who is vying to be Trump's running mate in the 2024 election, was called out after sucking up to the ex-President's son in a post on X.

Ohio Republican Senator J.D. Vance was dragged online after calling Donald Trump Jr. "one of the best people" in a fawning social media post.

Vance shared the link to an Axios article in which Trump Jr. is described as "MAGA's new kingmaker," detailing the elder Trump scion's efforts to "become a behind-the-scenes power broker in GOP politics — a guy whose endorsements are coveted as much as anyone except the former president's [former President Donald Trump]."


He wrote:

"Don is one of the best people I’ve met in politics. He genuinely believes in America First and works his ass off to make it a reality."

You can see his post below.

It was exactly the sort of comment one would expect from Vance, who is currently vying to be Trump's vice presidential pick—and people were quick to mock him for it.




Vance previously secured Trump's endorsement during his Senate campaign and is considered one of Trump's strongest allies in Congress, openly supporting Trump's claim of absolute immunity, which is currently being reviewed by the Supreme Court. A decision on the matter is expected later this month.

Trump has reportedly been considering Vance as a potential vice-presidential candidate, with plans to announce his running mate early in the summer before the Republican convention.

This week, Vance revealed during a Fox News interview that former President Donald Trump's campaign is asking potential vice presidential picks whether they've committed any "crime"—which is ironic because Trump himself would be disqualified on those parameters.

Last month, Trump became the first former president to be convicted of felony crimes. A New York jury last month found him guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels to illegally influence the 2016 election. His sentencing is set for July 11.

Polyakov, 24, arrived at the northeastern shore of North Sentinel Island at 10 a.m. on March 29, according to police reports. He used binoculars to survey the land but saw no one. He then climbed ashore, leaving behind a Diet Coke and a coconut, took sand samples, and recorded a video, the authorities said.
