"Former President Donald Trump has picked Sen. J.D. Vance — an author and former venture capitalist who has been dismissive of climate change concerns but outspoken on rail safety — to be his vice presidential running mate.
Trump, the Republican nominee in November’s presidential race, announced his pick Monday on the first day of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Vance beat out other running-mate finalists, including North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Sens. Tim Scott of South Carolina and Marco Rubio of Florida. Trump announced his decision on social media as delegates were casting their nomination votes."
