United States Vice President James David Vance spoke at a Republican convention in Dallas, where two months before the congressional elections he sharply attacked the Democratic Party. He called it the "party of hatred" and built his rhetoric on themes promoted by President Donald Trump. Spiegel.de ↗

According to several reports, Vance's speech was marked by an effort to build on Trump's political legacy. The vice president presented himself as his possible successor while also building his position ahead of the 2028 presidential election. However, according to assessments, his appearance did not bring a significantly new political program. El Pais ↗

In his speech, Vance focused mainly on criticizing the Democrats and their candidates. Another topic was the mobilization of Republican voters ahead of the November congressional elections. Like Trump, Vance used sharp language and emphasized the conflict between the two parties. Die Zeit ↗

During the convention, Trump urged his supporters to come out and vote for Republicans in November. He had those present repeat a pledge that they would take part in the elections on November 3. He warned voters who might stay home that, in his words, they would "go to hell." Telex ↗

The Republican convention thus demonstrated the party's effort to rebuild support ahead of the elections, while also presenting Vance as one of the key figures in its future direction. His role in the campaign could be significant, especially in connection with presidential ambitions after Trump's term.
