Former United States (US) President, Donald Trump, announced Senator JD Vance ass his running mate for the US Presidential Election 2024 on Monday 15 July, 2024.
Trump’s running mate choice is coming just some hours after he survived an assassination attempt on Saturday 13 July, 2024 at his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The former US President was helped out of the area with a wounded ear, but no major injury.
Omokri said, “Senator Vance is a man who viciously attacked President Trump in the past. He said he was “a never Trump guy”. He called Donald Trump an “idiot”. He urged Americans not to vote for Donald Trump and called Mr. Trump “America’s Hitler””.
He urged “everyone to learn politics from Trump and Vance. There are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Only permanent interests.”
According to Reno Omokri: “Former President Trump has just chosen Ohio Senator James David Vance as his running mate. Please fact-check me: Senator Vance is a man who viciously attacked President Trump in the past. He said he was “a never Trump guy”. He called Donald Trump an “idiot”. He urged Americans not to vote for Donald Trump and called Mr. Trump “America’s Hitler”.
But today, he has been nominated as the vice Presidential candidate under Trump, and has publicly accepted the nomination.
I urge everyone to learn politics from Trump and Vance. There are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Only permanent interests.
In my own case, my permanent interest is Nigeria. Between the All Progressives Congress Presidential candidate and his Peoples Democratic Party counterpart, there is little or no difference.
They both promised to remove fuel subsidy, ensure the Naira was floated, provide student loans, and push for devolution of powers. Look at their manifestos and please tell me what the major difference is. They are similar documents.
I will support President Tinubu’s policies that were also in the Peoples Democratic Party manifesto. I will do so proudly and patriotically.
Even Peter Obi was put on the 2019 PDP ticket by the grace of God using my efforts. And he cannot deny it because I am a meticulous record keeper and kept paper records. Peter Obi does not even believe in the official Labour Party manifesto. He is more politically attuned to us in the PDP.
So, develop some emotional maturity and learn how to tackle politics, or you will FOREVER be marginalised if you play politics with your emotions.
During the elections, politicians and their strategists will attack each other. It is all part of the way politics is played. After elections, we move from battleground to common ground.
The only politician and movement I cannot forgive are those who threatened to kill my daughter, physically came to my house thinking they could intimidate me, made false allegations against me, used Arise TV as a propaganda machine to fight me, and stalked then approached me on the streets while warning me to leave Peter Obi alone.
There are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. But with death threats to my child, and with their leader keeping quiet when it was brought to his attention, there is permanent enmity.
Peter Obi will NEVER be President of Nigeria, and we will fight to ensure that even if he returns to the PDP, he will NEVRT get on our ticket. But beyond that, we are moving on with one Nigeria!”
HC: I think Politics and Business are the same. “No permanent friend or enemy. Only permanent interests'”. But I knew Reno Omokri would drag this down to Peter Obi and the Labour Party (LP). *Lol*
