Consistently criticized by his opponents for comments he made about Donald Trump in 2016, JD Vance on April 15 received the stamp of approval they all sought—an endorsement from the former president for the Ohio GOP U.S. Senate primary.

Trump made the announcement on Friday saying that the Hillbilly Elegy author and venture capitalist has the best chance of defeating Democratic Congressman Tim Ryan in the general election. Ryan is the clear frontrunner in the Democratic primary.
