Kamala Harris: Trump Picked JD Vance as Running Mate to ‘Rubber Stamp’ His ‘Extreme Agenda’

Just days after the failed assassination attempt against President Donald Trump, VP Kamala Harris is already pushing divisive rhetoric about the Republican presidential ticket.

In a newly released video, Harris claims that Trump selected Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his running mate to “rubber stamp” the 45th president’s alleged “extreme agenda.”

This comes ahead of Vance’s acceptance speech on Wednesday at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

As THAIMBC News reported, Trump, now formally the Republican nominee for president, announced Vance as his pick for VP on Monday.

“Trump looked for someone he knew would be a rubber stamp for his extreme agenda,” Harris said in the video.

“Make no mistake: JD Vance will be loyal only to Trump, not to our country,” she continued.

Harris and Vance spoke by phone after the senator’s nomination in a brief and respectful conversation, Fox News reported.

They reportedly spoke after Harris left a congratulatory voicemail.

Harris also criticized Vance for saying in an interview with ABC News earlier this year that he would not have certified the 2020 election until states submitted pro-Trump electors if he were vice president at the time.

During the interview, Vance confirmed he believes election fraud swayed the 2020 election.

“Unlike Mike Pence, Vance said he would have carried out Trump’s plan to overturn the 2020 election,” Harris said.

The vice president further pointed to comments Vance made during his 2022 Senate campaign.

Vance said he supported a national abortion ban at 15 weeks, with some exceptions such as protecting the life of the mother.

Harris also cited in her video Vance’s vote last month against a Democrat-led bill to protect access to in vitro fertilization or IVF.

The bill was blocked by Republicans in the Senate.

“He supports a national abortion ban and voted against protecting IVF,” Harris said of Vance.

Harris also referenced Project 2025, a controversial initiative organized by conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation.

The plan was authored by a number of conservatives, including some former Trump administration officials.

Project 2025 offers right-wing policy recommendations for Trump should he win the presidency.

The plan includes replacing civil service employees with Trump loyalists, abolishing the Department of Education, criminalizing pornography, eliminating DEI programs, cutting funding for Medicaid and Medicare, rejecting abortion as healthcare, and infusing the government with Christian values.

Trump has no involvement in the initiative, however.

Critics have painted Project 2025 as an authoritarian and Christian nationalist plan that would undermine civil liberties.

Trump responded to reports about the initiative by saying he knows nothing about it, adding that parts of the plan are “absolutely ridiculous and abysmal.”

“And if elected, [Vance] will help implement the extreme Project 2025 plan for a second Trump term, which would target critical programs like Head Start and Medicare,” Harris claims.

“But we are not going to let that happen.”
