Former President Donald Trump has selected Ohio Senator JD Vance as his running mate for the 2024 presidential elections, a choice met with skepticism due to Vance's historically low polling ratings for a vice presidential candidate and controversial remarks about women. Polls indicate Vance has a net negative favorability rating of -6 points, the worst since 1980, raising concerns among Republican voters about his viability. Trump's decision is seen as a desperate attempt to regain support among white male voters, a demographic that has shifted away from him since 2016. Despite ongoing criticism and speculation about replacing Vance, Trump's campaign maintains that he is satisfied with his choice. Vance's background includes military service and a successful memoir, but his recent comments and lack of political experience are causing divisions among GOP supporters. With voting beginning as early as September, the likelihood of a change in the ticket seems slim at this stage.
