Vance touts manufacturing jobs, backs Maine Republicans in Brewer visit

wmur.com

Vice President JD Vance visited Compotech, a defense technology company in Brewer, Maine, on Monday to tout U.S. manufacturing job growth and endorse several Republican candidates. Vance praised gubernatorial candidate Bobby Charles, congressional candidate Paul LePage, and Senator Susan Collins during the stop. He cited 29,000 new manufacturing jobs created in the last year and took media questions on fraud, tariffs, and the fatal shooting of an ICE officer in Biddeford. The visit was Vance's second to Maine in three months. He criticized Democratic Governor Janet Mills over fraud, who responded by calling him a "neutered lapdog" for Donald Trump. Vance also attacked State Auditor Matt Dunlap, who dismissed the trip as a bailout for LePage's campaign.
