Trump endorses J.D. Vance — who once called him an 'idiot,' 'noxious,' and 'reprehensible' — for Senate in Ohio
ahead of the 2016 election. He called him an “idiot.” He called him “noxious.” He called him “reprehensible.” He wrote a piece forcomparing Trumpism to opioid addiction. “Trump is cultural heroin,” he wrote. “He makes some feel better for a bit. But he cannot fix what ails them, and one day they’ll realize it.” CNN reported earlier on Friday that Vance alsoas the reason Trump was able to garner so much support ahead of the 2016 election.
Vance has done yeoman’s work trying to walk back his comments now that he’s running for office as a Republican in Ohio. “All of us say stupid things,” he explained during a debate last month, “and I happen to say stupid things very publicly.” He also touted Trump as the “greatest president of my lifetime.”
It looks like that work has paid off. “Like some others, J.D. Vance may have said some not so great things about me in the past, but he gets it now, and I have seen that in spades,” Trump wrote in endorsing him on Friday.
