Vice presidential candidate JD Vance told Joe Rogan that he felt compelled to guard his family immediately after the first assassination attempt on former President Trump.
Vance appeared as a guest on an episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” released Thursday where he recalled his initial reaction to the assassination attempt against Trump during a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
He revealed that ahead of the rally, Trump had toyed with the idea of having him come and announcing him as the pick there.
“He basically said, ‘Well, I think I’m probably going to pick you, but I don’t know, and I’m not ready to make a decision.’ And then he looks at one of his staff members who’s in the room, he’s like, ‘Actually, wouldn’t it really set the world ablaze if we just made the decision today, and so why don’t you come up with me and we’ll just do the announcement in Butler, Pennsylvania?'” the Ohio senator said.
