I still don't understand what exactly Vance brings to the table. He is not going to get one single additional vote. Leaving aside DEI just on pure merits Tulsi and Vivek would have been far better options.
Guess in the end Peter Thiel money or influence made the difference. I would say it's the latter, with many Banks cutting ties with Trump organization after J6, this would help them.

Trump Jr was heavily pushing Vance, despite repeated comments from big influencers on X. This push came after a silicon valley fundraiser organished by Vance.

Major influencers and high profile persons on X who where pushing for Vivek where Gen Michael Flynn, Candence, Catturd, Hodge Twins, a few dozen more 1 millions plus followers accounts and a few billionaires and practically every poll.

For Tulsi we had Steve Bannon and few more of the above.

The paid Trump influencers started heavily pushing for JD Vance and Burgham, with some going on tell that Burgham was the best in the primary debate, which is a blatant lie.

JD vance cannot win in 2028. His senate seat itself was funded by Peter Thiel. He was a Atheist, praised Obama, Never Trumper he did 180 in all of these.

I agree that VP is not going to have much effect on votes. I like Tulsi and Vivek a lot too. The main thing I was looking for is someone who would keep the MAGA agenda going if something happened to Trump. You can judge the effectiveness of a candidate by the way the media attacks them and the knives are out for JD Vance, of they would have been attacking Tulsi or Vivek too. As long as it wasn't Burgum, maybe not Rubio either.

The wife and I just watched "Hillbilly Elegy" again, think we watched it last year. What a great story, we both talked about how blessed we both were with our parents and upbringing. Sadly, there are thousands, millions of families that deal with this, or similar abuse and only a few break the chains and become normal. V.D. Vance is one of those and to become Vice President, WOW what a Huge blessing...We are excited for him and his family.

There seem to be a hundred videos out there about the Trump shooting. One I saw had one guy stating that those who yelled to the cops about the shooter on the roof saved Trump. The one cop that climbed up on the building to confront the shooter, then the shooter turned his gun on the cop and he fell back, well right after that the shooter had to hurry up turn around and take his shot(s), he was no longer positioned not to miss. This is the video guy's opinion and if it happened like this it is now my opinion too, God was fully in control at that point...

Vivek absolutely brought the house down with a fiery speech at the RNC. Comments on X are nothing but buyers remorse for JD Vance.

Now the media narrative is for Vivek to take the senate seat that Vance will vacate. There by making Vivek hands tied in the senate.

This guy needs to be in the cabinet, he is still fighting and pushing Trump to gut the agencies.

Eric Trump was saying that he hopes Vivek is his running mate in 2036, I mean whats exactly have Trump kids achieved to earn them a spot. I do not like political dynasties. It will be no different from Bush, Cheney, Kennedy's etc.
