WASHINGTON, DC: Vice President JD Vance praised President Donald Trump’s ability to “compartmentalize things” during a recent interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News.

When Hannity asked Vance what he had learned from the president, the vice president highlighted Trump’s rapid problem-solving skills, contrasting them with his own tendency to dwell on issues.

According to a 66-second Fox News clip shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user Eric Daugherty from Sean Hannity's interview, JD Vance praised Donald Trump’s exceptional instincts for reading people and his skill at compartmentalizing multiple crises to maintain focus.

Hannity asked, "What have you learned from President Trump? I mean, he is a force of nature. I’ve known him 30 years. What have you learned from him?"

Vance replied, "You know, a few things. Number one, the president is amazing at compartmentalizing things."

He added, “When something is going on, there's always a crisis. The very best day in the West Wing, there's at least one crisis somewhere in the world that somebody's putting on your desk.”

Vance continued, giving an example, "The president has an incredible ability to sort of say — 'focus on that for 15 minutes, and then go and focus on something totally different for 15 minutes.'"

The vice president admitted, "That’s not naturally how I am. If something bad is going on, I tend to want to think about that thing and solve that problem before I go on to something else."

He then reassured, "The president is incredible at that compartmentalization. I think it’s one of the reasons why he can handle ten different problems at once is because he’s able to troubleshoot and then move on to the next thing, troubleshoot and move on to the next thing.”

Vance concluded, "The second thing that I’ve learned from the president, Sean, and I’ve tried to absorb it as much as I can, and I think some of this is just who he is and his natural instincts is: he has better instincts about human beings than anybody that I have ever me." 

Pam Bondi highlights Trump’s tireless work ethic



JD Vance’s praise of Donald Trump echoes a sentiment shared by many, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, who recently highlighted the POTUS' tireless work ethic. Bondi revealed that even those closest to Trump often remain in the dark when they ask about his late-night routines.

On September 15, Bondi shared her insights into Trump’s unusual sleeping habits during 'The Katie Miller Show' at the 23:42 timestamp.

She described Trump as “the kindest, warmest, toughest, smartest human being I know” before discussing his late-night routines.

“None of us can keep up with him, we always joke. I don’t know how he does it. I mean, none of us know when he sleeps. He’s working all the time and it’s just constant for him,” Bondi said. “There aren’t enough hours in the day for any of us.”

Bondi’s observations align with Trump’s frequent late-night posts on his Truth Social account, where he often types in all-caps and sometimes appears erratic.
