JD Vance Tells Fox News ‘Of Course’ Trump Would Appoint A Democrat To Cabinet
Former President Donald Trump’s running mate Senator JD Vance (R-OH) told Fox & Friends that they would seek to appoint a Democrat to their cabinet if they win the upcoming presidential election.
Vance was responding to a question from the show’s hosts as he was asked to comment on Vice President Kamala Harris’s Thursday interview on CNN with journalist Dana Bash in which she said that if she were to win the White House she would appoint a Republican to her cabinet to create a “diversity of opinion.”
Asked by host Steve Doocy if the Trump administration would offer a Democrat a role, Vance said “of course” they would, describing MAGA as a “common sense big tent movement.”
He replied:
Oh, of course we would. We have got a lot of Democratic support. We just got RFK. Jr., of course, and Tulsi Gabbard who endorsed the president in just the last couple of days. If you look at the Trump movement in 2024, it is actually the common sense big tent movement in American politics. We don’t agree on everything, of course. Not everybody who votes for Donald Trump will agree with every policy issue, but we agree on the basics. We agree that American energy prices should be lower. We agree we should make more of our own stuff in the United States of America. We agree that we should close down the border and stop the flow of illegal drugs and trafficking into our country. It is just the basic, common-sense stuff.
And it’s telling, Kamala Harris wants to say she’s the big tent candidate and she wants to say she stands for a totally different platform than what she ran on three years ago. But she’s governed as a radical and will govern further as a radical and Donald Trump has the record of lower prices, higher wages and peace across the world. The contrast is extraordinary. We just have to remind the American people that the proof is in the pudding. Donald Trump did a good job. Kamala Harris did a bad one.
