Vance lists four things he has in common with Nixon: ‘Sounds like JD Vance’

Vice President JD Vance expressed admiration for former President Richard Nixon, describing him as a fascinating historical character. Vance identified shared parallels between their experiences, including being young officials, writing bestselling books, and facing media hostility. While visiting the Richard Nixon presidential library to promote his book, Communion, Vance asserted that the Watergate scandal would only be a 12-hour news story today. He further claimed that both Nixon and Trump were targeted by deep state forces.
