Trump made the announcement at the start of the Republican National Convention, two days after he survived an assassination attempt.
Donald Trump has selected US Senator J.D. Vance to serve as his vice presidential running mate as the Republican Party prepared to officially nominate Trump as its 2024 presidential candidate. "As Vice President, JD will continue to fight for our Constitution, stand with our Troops, and will do everything he can to help me MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

After the assassination attempt, Trump said he is revising his acceptance speech to emphasise national unity, rather than highlight his differences with Biden. "This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together.
