J.D. Vance’s weird, anti-woke punchline fell flat at his own sleepy speaking event on Monday.
Vance held a rally at his former high school in Middletown, Ohio, where hundreds gathered to hear the missives of Donald Trump’s newly-minted vice presidential candidate. But, even as a hometown hero, the Ohio senator suffered some brutally awkward moments.
“It is the weirdest thing to me: Democrats say that it is racist to believe—well, they say it’s racist to do anything,” said Vance. “I had a diet Mountain Dew yesterday, and one today. I’m sure they’re probably gonna call that racist, too.” Around the room there were some scattered laughs.
I wonder if all the other options actually had backbones? I know the one supreme deciding factor for Trump’s pick: “will you do as I say and deny the results of the election and anything else I ask you to do that isn’t above board?”
I think there might be more pences out there than we think so Vance might have been one of a few on a short list that filled that criteria. Plus I’m sure Trump liked the look of him.
Reporting was saying that Trump didn’t like Vance and Trump’s sons had to convince him.
Interesting. The only reason I’d have to not believe that is that it involves Trump listening to his children lol
😂
There’s also the factor that Trump’s cultists wanted to hang his last VP, and Trump was okay with that.
