Many questioned Donald Trump’s selection of J.D. Vance as his running mate.
He turned out to be a fantastic pick.
And Vance spread one message on Election Day that had Democrats seeing red.
J.D. Vance on the political divide in the United States
“Woke” radicals became the thought leaders of the Democrat Party after Donald Trump’s victory in 2016.
In true cult-like fashion, leftists began cutting off family members for their support of Trump.
A pall of silence fell over Trump supporters on college campuses or liberal work environments where the stakes of being “MAGA” were high.
The massive political raft was caused by Democrats being able to process Hillary Clinton’s loss, and they turned to the far left for answers.
Vice President-elect J.D. Vance wants to bridge the gap.
He grew more popular as more people learned about him.
On Election Day Vance repeated a line that endeared him to voters, calling for friendships to remain intact no matter what.
Vance told reporters, “You know, my most important message is we ought to argue, disagree about, Persuade each other about politics — That’s part of the natural process. But we can’t discard friends and we can’t discard family members.”
Vance wants an end to political hatred
Politics has replaced Christianity as the Democrats’ religion.
And once the “personal is political,” disagreements become heretical.
Vance said it was time for Americans to put aside political disagreements and come together as Americans.
“I think that if we all just recognize this basic principle that we ought to love people, we ought to be friends with people, we ought to be family members with people regardless of their politics. That would do a lot to heal the division,” Vance continued.
Vance knew from personal experience that political divides lead to broken friends as people he trusted leaked private text messages in order to embarrass him.
He continued, “I know myself, I’ve had a lot of friends — not a lot — I’ve had a few friends who have cast their friendship aside because I decided that I wanted Donald J. Trump to be the winner in the last election, in this election. I think that’s a tragedy, and I’m not going to follow that example.”
Vance said that personal friendships and relationships are more important than any differences over policy.
“I’d say to everybody, whether you’re voting for Donald Trump or voting for Kamala Harris, remember friends and family, that stuff is what really, really matters. We ought to be kind to one another, we ought to treat each other with respect,” Vance added.
He concluded, “And fundamentally, what we’re trying to do, President Trump and I, is just build the kind of country where our fellow Americans can achieve their dreams. But that’s all of our fellow Americans, regardless of who they vote for.”
