On Tuesday, Logan Glass, Alabama’s youngest delegate to the Republican National Convention taking place this week in Milwaukee, was handed the microphone by CBS News. He took the opportunity to promote the GOP nominee for President in 2024 — and give a shoutout to his mom and family back home in Alabama.
Glass, at age 22, is a graduate of the University of North Alabama, founder of the St. Clair County Young Republicans, former Vice Chair of the St. Clair County Republican Party, and an active campaign surrogate for President Donald Trump — as is well evidenced in the video below. Watch:
Glass was interviewed from the convention floor by Ed O’Keefe, senior White House political correspondent for CBS News.
The young Alabamian was initially surprised by President Donald Trump’s pick for Vice President, but is happy with the selection.
“I was taken by surprise,” Glass. “Personally, I thought it would be Doug Burgum, Marco Rubio, or Tim Scott. JD Vance was certainly a surprise to me, but a welcome one. I think JD Vance is going to help President Trump make America great again.”
Glass then sent his highest regards back home to the Yellowhammer State.
“And by the way, I want to give a shoutout to my mom, my uncle Phil, and all the folks back home watching. We’ve got a country to save in November, and we’re going to make America great again with the Trump-Vance ticket.”
