J.D. Vance emerges as Trump's heir ahead of midterm elections

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General11 September 2026 at 10:15

Donald Trump declared "I'm already getting a little tired of politics" during the second night of the Republican National Convention, contrasting with his previous threats that he could become the last president of the United States. The confession was made at a moment of party consolidation.

The Republican National Convention served to consolidate Vice President J.D. Vance as Trump's political heir ahead of the midterm elections the country will hold in November.

Vance is being positioned as Trump's political successor within the Republican Party, representing the continuity of his leadership and political vision for the future of the party.
