The Onion's Exclusive Interview With JD Vance

Thanks to his swift rise from first-term Ohio senator to next-in-line for the presidency, JD Vance is thought by many to represent the vanguard of the Republican Party. The Onion sat down with the vice president to discuss his views on faith, the Trump administration’s goals, and his future ambitions.

The Onion: Mr. Vice President, thank you for joining us. How would you say your personal beliefs have evolved over the years?
Vance: They haven’t. I’ve just gotten better at ignoring them.

In that case, how do you navigate disagreements with the president?
By agreeing.

Turning to faith—you’re a practicing Catholic and your wife, Usha, is Hindu. How do you navigate an interfaith relationship?
Communication is key. For example, I’ll tell a crowd of 10,000 people I hope she finds Christ, and she’ll tell me if I ever do that again she’s publicly converting to Islam.
