Trump says ‘you’re voting for the president … you’re voting for me’ when asked about vice-presidential pick
Donald Trump has said that vice presidential picks have “virtually no impact” on elections when asked about JD Vance’s fitness for office, in an apparent attempt to downplay his running mate’s role on the Republican ticket.
Trump made the comments during a combative interview at the annual convention of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) in Chicago. Asked by the Fox News journalist Harris Faulkner whether Vance would be ready to take over “on day one, if he has to be”, Trump avoided answering directly and instead downplayed the significance of the Vance’s role.
Two words: McCain/Palin
Hmm. Sarah Palin is only 60. Dan Quayle is older, at 77.
But it is possible that JD, at 39, might be their illegitimate love child.
Pretty sure Vance is the fly from the last VP debate.
As the prophecy foretold
Don’t underestimate Vance’s maniacal potential. He’s definitely more of a Cheney than a Quayle.
“You say tomatoe, I say tomatoe”
EDIT: Damnit. I got the 32yo joke wrong. It was Potatoe… 🫠
I have a hard time believing Trump would be the pushover Bush was. Though he is easily manipulated, so maybe.
He’ll support any policies that will yield him money or fame. The entirety of his person is for sale.
But he would also lose his mind if everyone was saying that JD Vance and Stephen Miller were really running the show like everyone did with Cheney and Rove.
JD is doing his best to upstage that act.
Really too bad the theater went to the dreamloungers. He’s too distracted to remember his lines.
Ugh. Up until he chose Palin, I would’ve been fine with McCain winning. I was for Obama, not against McCain, and then he went and f***ed it all up.
🎶 bomb bomb bomb Iran! 🎶 is when I decided I would not be fine with him being president
