Because Trump is a narcissist and needs to pick someone who doesn't overshadow himself in any way and will be subservient to his every whim.
There's not many options after those criteria.
It's funny because JD Vance is overshadowing Trump. I see more talk about JD Vance than I do about Trump.
Trump needs the hate and attention, his supporters like him because he is counter-culture. Trump is their guy in the fight. If that stops then Trump becomes just an old rich white guy. This is why Trump plays the victim card every speech and talks about all the attacks he's constantly suffering.
Well...
