While President Donald Trump and the Israeli Prime Minster Bibi Netanyahu spoke with the press on Tuesday afternoon in the Oval Office, Vice President JD Vance sat on one of the side benches while reporters shouted questions about Gaza, Israel and the Central East.
It was a change of pace for the vice president after having spent the phones and Monday the telephones, and insisted on his former Republican colleagues to some of the more controversial nominees from the Trump to his cabinet supports.
Trump's enemies already stated about the uncertain future of the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. As secretary of health and human services and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard as director of National Intelligence.
But Vance went to work to move them through the process.
He prepared the scene on January 29 and warned Republicans on social media that the rejecting of Kennedy and Gabbard would have political consequences.
'In their own way, both Tulsi Gabbard and RFK represent Jr. Parts of the new coalition in our party, “he wrote on X.” To say that they are undesirable in the cabinet to insult those new voters. “
Behind the scenes, the vice president was much more diplomatic.
The appointment of Tulsi Gabbard as Spy Boss has been controversial because she met Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad and had controversial views on the invasion of Russia in Ukraine

Vance had only spent two years in the Senate before he was elected vice president, but he had already built up strong relationships with his Republican colleagues.
The Vice President was particularly aimed at two senators, Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana in the Senate Financing Committee and Senator Todd Young of Indiana in the Senate Ininimation Committee.
Vance patiently listened to all their worries and spoke through every year, while Kennedy and Gabbard answered all their questions.
In a city of people who like to hear themselves talking, Republicans told DailyMail.com, Vance is unique for his ability to listen.
Gabbard and Kennedy, former Democrats, were Mavericks in their party about some of the biggest problems that the country is confronted with, and their former colleagues united against them for joining the Maga movement.

The vice -president claimed that Trump deserved respect for whom he wanted in his cabinet.
'You don't have to agree with everything Bobby Kennedy has ever said, you don't have to agree with everything that Tulsi Gabbard has ever said, you are meant to ask that they have the qualifications and the character for this work To do, “he explained in an interview with Fox Business -anchor Maria Bartiromo.
Vance's efforts worked.
Senator Todd Young announced only a few hours before the committee's voice that he would support Gabbard and he thanked VANCE specifically for his patience.
“He was respectful, he listened much more than he said, and he seemed to be honest to be effective in his end to get the kind of concessions that was necessary to get a yes,” he told Repectors on Capitol Hill .
Cassidy also thanked VANCE for his efforts, because he eventually agreed to vote for Kennedy.
“I want to thank VP JD specifically for his honest council,” he wrote on social media.
Both Gabbard and Kennedy are still confronted with a definitive confirmation voice in the Senate, but with Cassidy and Young on board, the mood is expected to be in their favor.

Republican senators are impressed by the success of Vance and he has already earned the reputation as an 'honest broker' and a 'trusted voice' in the congress, confirms sources to DailyMail.com.
Part of being an 'honest broker' was VANCE who convinced Trump early with the harsh truth that there was no way to former Rep. Matt Gaetz to get the confirmation process for Attorney General, after conversations with GOP senators.
Few thought that Minister of Defense Pete Hegseeth would reach the debilitating process, but Vance proved that they were wrong.
The vice president intervened to save the nomination on the last hour to break a draw, even after the former leader of the Senate Mitch McConnell indicated his disapproval and voted no.
Vance arrived in the Chamber to cast his vote and looked up at members of Hegseeth's family who were in the gallery and held in their breath while waiting for the verdict in the extension.
“What do you think of this Pete Hegseeth -man?” He joked, brought his way to bring his tie-breaking mood.
Vance describes his role as Vice President of Trump in football terms.
“I see my work as a player around,” he said in his interview with Bartiromo and described his role in the administration as well as “attack and defense.”
The vice president will leave for Europe next week to attend an artificial intelligence conference in Paris and the safety conference of Munich in Germany.

During the press conference with Netanyahu, Trump Vance saw sitting in the front row and gave him a scream.
'JD, please, vice -president, get up. He did well, “Trump said when JD came up with a bitter grin.
“He worked very hard on all things,” Trump added.
Vance's skills with his colleagues will be tested again on the test, because Trump has given him the leadership about negotiating a deal with Tiktok to keep it online.
Republicans supported the ban overwhelming, signed by former President Biden last year.
Trump and Vance have campaigned to keep Tiktok alive, and it will be up to the vice president to negotiate a solution.
For Vance it is all part of the work for which he has registered.
“It is the coolest job I have ever had, and it is an honor to serve,” he said on Fox laughing. “I learn a lot.”
