Donald Trump is dangerous; JD Vance is much worse

Trump’s running mate is intelligent, articulate and, as a Yale-trained lawyer, he doesn’t just shoot his mouth off. He knows exactly what he’s saying, and why. In short, you can take everything Vance says both literally and seriously.

And last Saturday, he said something that everyone needs to listen to, whether you are a Republican or a Democrat.

In an interview with Lulu Garcia-Navarro of the New York Times, Vance once again refused to admit that Trump lost the presidency in 2020. Instead, the Ohio senator raised concerns about how the Hunter Biden laptop story had been handled in the runup to the that election. When asked if he would have certified the results of the 2020 election, he said no.

“Is it OK that big technology companies censored the Hunter Biden laptop story which independent analysis said cost Donald Trump millions of votes?…I’ve said that I would have voted against certification because of the concern that I just raised.”

Stop for a second and process what Vance is telling us. This no longer has anything to do with voter fraud, even imaginary voter fraud. He is saying that he would refuse to certify a presidential election if he believes the press treated his preferred candidate unfairly.
