(The Guardian) 'The people who govern this country have failed and failed again', Vance tells Republicans
Turning again to the trials of his Ohio hometown, JD Vance argued that repeated administrations had failed it – until Donald Trump came along.
“My friends, things did not work out well for a lot of kids I grew up with. Every now and then, I will get a call from a relative back home, who asks, did you know so and so? And I’ll remember a face from years ago, and then I’ll hear they died of an overdose,” Vance said.
“As always, America’s ruling class wrote the checks, communities like mine paid the price. For decades that divide between the few with their power and comfort in Washington and the rest of us only widened. From Iraq to Afghanistan, from the financial crisis to the Great Recession, from open borders to stagnating wages, the people who govern this country have failed and failed again.”
And then: That is, of course, until a guy named Donald J Trump came along. President Trump represents America’s last best hope to restore what, if lost, may never be found again.
