'His Mamaw raised him' - Republicans inspired by Vance speech

Republicans have reacted positively to the speech delivered by Donald Trump's running mate JD Vance.

In a primetime speech, the Ohio senator vowed to fight for working-class Americans that he argued had been “cast aside and forgotten” by the Democrats.

In the speech, Mr Vance charted his journey from a difficult childhood in small-town Ohio to the US Marines, Yale Law School, and finally the US Senate.

Mr Vance, 39, is hoping to become one of the youngest vice-presidents in US history.
