Trump's nomination of Vice President Vence, 'response to non-conformity in presidential election', evaluated as extremist, Korean media promoted 'dirt spoon'
When U.S. presidential candidate Trump nominated Senator Vance as vice president, the U.S. media evaluated him as a “leader in conservatism” and “extremist,” starting with “preparing to respond to objections to the presidential election results,” while the Korean media promoted him as a “dirt spoon.”In response to Senator Vance's remarks about ‘election fraud,’ the NYT reported on the 15th that “he promised not to accept the results of this year’s election.”
Ohio Republican J.D. nominated for vice president. In an interview with CNN's Dana Bash on May 12, Senator Vance was asked whether he would accept the results of the November election, saying, "If we have a fair election, I will accept the results." "Just like the Democrats did in 2020, just like the Democrats did in the past, and just like the Republicans did in 2020, we have to be willing to pursue those issues and try to prosecute your case if we think those issues are a problem." In fact, they declared that they would not accept the election results.
At the time, ABC host Stephanopoulos said, ‘JD Vance did that in 2016. He's now a Republican senator from Ohio who supports Donald Trump, and he joins us this morning. Even in 2016, you wrote that Trump was unfit for office. To the question ‘Why did he turn himself over?’
“Well, actually, George, he’s done a great job,” said Rep. Vance. But he proved me wrong. "He's also proven a lot of other people wrong, which is why I think he's doing so well in the polls these days."
He continued, "Reporter George, we have to remember that Joe Biden promised to get back to normal, and yet the world is burning. There's war in the Red Sea, there's war in Eastern Europe, there's war on our southern border, there's terrible drugs." There is a crisis brewing, of course, and there are many young Americans who cannot afford to buy a home because interest rates are so high.
Compared to the performance of President Donald Trump's four years in office, the United States has actually maintained secure borders, middle-class wages have risen, and the American dream has become more attainable and more attainable for more people. It's hard not to conclude that I was wrong and a lot of people were wrong about Donald Trump in 2015. He rescued George and did a good job. And I think that's why we should give him another chance," he told ABC.
AP said, “Vance made a name for himself with the 2016 bestseller ‘Hillbilly Elegy,’ which was published when Trump first ran for president. The book earned Vance a reputation as someone who could help explain the New York maverick businessman's appeal in the American middle, especially among the working-class, rural white voters who helped elect Trump to the presidency.
‘Hillbilly Elegy’ also introduced Vance to the Trump family. Donald Trump Jr. loved the book and knew Vance when he began his political career. “The two hit it off and remained friends, and he was first elected to public office in 2022.”
Rep. Vance is a representative conservative chosen by the American media.
Kevin Roberts, president of the conservative Heritage Foundation, told the Associated Press that Rep. Vance "is a leading voice in the conservative movement on major issues that are writ large in American culture, such as a shift away from interventionist foreign policy and a free market economy." .
AP said, “American Democrats call Vance an extremist, noting that he took provocative positions but later modified them,” adding, “Rep. Vance expressed support for a nationwide 15-week abortion ban when he was running for Senate, but then he was rejected by Ohio voters. “He changed his position when they overwhelmingly supported the 2023 abortion rights amendment,” he said.
The AP continued, “Vance is a Republican who did not ‘definitely support Trump’ in 2016 and called Trump “dangerous and unfit for office.” His wife is lawyer Usha Chilukuri Vance, an Indian-American and mother of three. “He also criticized Trump’s racist remarks, saying he could become ‘America’s Hitler.’”
But when Vance meets Trump in 2021, Vance completely changes his opinion, citing Trump's accomplishments as president.
Both Rep. Vance and his wife made a sharp turn away from the ‘criticism of Trump’ that Vance had harshly criticized in the past.
As soon as he was first elected to the Senate in 2022, Rep. Vance became an ardent supporter of Trump on Capitol Hill, constantly defending Trump's policies and actions.
The Korean media promoted Trump’s election campaign by reporting intensively with ‘a spoonful of mud’.
