Mr. Vance is my constituent in Southwest Ohio, and we both grew up in Butler County at the same time.

So I have thoughts…

Following the horrific assassination attempt of former president Trump, there was a collective call for unity in our politics.

But Mr. Vance is not a unity selection.

Mr. Vance gained fame and wealth by disrespecting Southwest Ohio, and he made national headlines when he compared Donald Trump to Hitler during the 2016 election.

Mr. Vance believes we should cut Social Security and Medicare and not the trillions we spend on billionaires.

Mr. Vance is all in on the culture wars, including picking on gay kids and telling women and girls what healthcare they can and can’t get.

Mr. Vance is part of the pro-Putin wing of the far right that no longer supports the U.S. as a defender of democracy and freedom around the world.

But it’s the role he plays in framing people and fanning the flames of political division that make him uniquely unfit for this moment of national unity and shared purpose.
