A hilarious candid clip has surfaced of former President Donald Trump and his newly minted running-mate of Senator J.D. Vance backstage at the Republican National Convention.
The short clip, which was posted to social media by Donald Trump Jr., shows the former president, Vance and members of the Trump family just before they headed onto the convention floor on Tuesday. “How’s he playing on X?” Trump asked while motioning towards Vance. “How’s he trending on Truth? Much more important,” Trump joked. “He’s doing good on Truth right?”
Trump named Vance as his long-awaited vice-presidential nominee just hours before the Republican convention was set to begin on Monday. “After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.

Trump spoke highly of Vance’s successful work in technology and finance, as well as his highly regarded memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” which details his struggles growing up in a declining American Midwest. It has long been believed that a potential Trump victory in 2024 will have to go through the Rust Belt, much like 2016.
“As Vice President, J.D. will continue to fight for our Constitution, stand with our Troops, and will do everything he can to help me MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Congratulations to Senator J.D. Vance, his wife, Usha, who also graduated from Yale Law School, and their three beautiful children. MAGA2024!”
The two were both seen in public for the first time during the opening night of the convention on Monday.
Monday night also marked the first time former President Trump was seen in public since he narrowly survived an assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania this past Saturday. A visibly emotional Trump made his entrance to a live rendition of Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless The USA,” which serves as the former president’s entrance music at rallies.
The former president once again made an appearance during the second night of the convention on Tuesday night. He is expected to give his highly anticipated address on Thursday evening.
