Donald Trump named Ohio Senator JD Vance as his vice-presidential nominee in July. Vance will debate Democratic vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz on Tuesday evening in New York.

Vance, a Yale-educated venture capitalist and author of the bestselling memoir-turned-film Hillbilly Elegy, won a seat in the US Senate in the 2022 midterm elections with the former president's endorsement.

But before that, Vance was a major Trump critic.
