Vice President JD Vance expressed his unequivocal confidence in President Donald Trump’s good health, while noting he’s nevertheless been well prepared to take over the top job if “a terrible tragedy” should occur.
In an interview published this week, USA Today asked Vance, “Why should Americans trust you to lead the country?”
