I don’t get this pic at all. The Dems are going to be all over this with Vance’s own words.



And he didn't say those things while running against Trump.

Candidates say lots of shite trying to win campaigns. Vance wasn't running against Trump.

Great for Dems

Scary for Vance


Y'all should run HARD with all that!

Your instincts seem impeccable of late.

After reading this a dozen times now I have to ask: what are y’all expecting the VP to “bring to the ticket?”

Well, Youngkin (not a fan) might have brought Virginia, which would be a big get.

First real mistake Trump has made this election cycle. I get Pence vibes of this guy. It’s a total waste of a pick. He needed to pick someone to set up the next election after he leaves office and Vance will never win a Presidential election. I love Trump but this is a horrible choice.

I can't wait for the actors and actresses from "Hillbilly Elegy" to make a dramatic black and white video denouncing JD Vance

then you should be disappointed by the Pence 2 pick.
yeah, pretty pissed actually. More disappointed in Trump than anything.

Personally, I think Trump is using this kid to try and secure the anti Trump vote; however, it just leaves him wide open to handing back power to the government if the next bullet really connects. Vance will do as he is told.

I wanted Gen Flynn or DeSantis

Vance is 1000 times smarter and cooler than Pence

What was he doing in 2016 saying he’s vote for Hillary? And saying Trump is Hitler?

I don’t remember Ben Carson saying that

Trumps picks/appointments leave a lot to be desired. Remember the USSC justice picks or his former VP pick or Jeff sessions? I could go on and on

A lot of crying pussies in this thread. Trump just survived an assassination attempt less than 48 hours ago and you're bemoaning a running mate choice that doesn't move the needle no matter who he picked.

Silly concern? To want them to have a plan to attack the attacks before they even happen? Seems like the smart play to me but you seem to be an expert so I’ll defer to you.

Who would you have preferred?

All of you bashing this choice need to name a better pick

Had to happen at some point, but I'm now older than the VP. frick, I'm getting old


I'm 41 and it hit me a little too

And people keep saying "well VP doesn't really do anything", well then all the more reason to pick somebody that helps you strategically. I don't see that here

Not the worst pick, not the best imo. They know more than I do, but I do know that there will be Vance videos calling Trump "literally Hitler" on loop in swing states.

Nobody is melting.

Is it okay to think there were better choices?

to the right of Trump

Is he? Honest question because what I've seen of him, he reminds me a lot of Trump in that he's a "conservative of convenience" type.

What attack?

Vance and Trump have already addressed the issue. And done so well. What exactly are you concerned about?

This is true.

I just know we'll hear him call Trump Hitler in Dem ads every day from now until November.

"Don't take it from us, let his running mate tell you" will be a line.

They are going to spend so much money trying to convince people his running mate isnt a grifter.

Oh well.
