Donald Trump's allies are already second-guessing his decision to name Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate.

The 39-year-old first-term senator is the least experienced major-party running mate in nearly a century, and the Trump critic-turned-Trump lieutenant adds little to the ticket – especially after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and threw his support behind his own running mate, Kamala Harris, wrote MSNBC columnist Steve Benen.

"[Vance] has no accomplishments to speak of," Benen wrote. "He has a record of extremism on key issues. He comes from a state the GOP ticket was certain to win anyway. He actually hated Trump in the recent past."

"As the public was reminded at Vance’s first solo rally since joining Trump’s team," Benen added, "the guy doesn’t exactly radiate charm and charisma, either."

I added the boldface, because it made me laugh!
