JD Vance Energizes Rallygoers During Western Trail Swing to Glendale, Arizona – RedState

This week, the media and commentators on the Left seemed determined to take a figurative buzzsaw to any perceived fault or misstep by Trump vice presidential candidate and  Ohio Republican Senator JD Vance. One progressive Dem governor, who’s said to be on the Kamala Harris shortlist for vice president, even started the ball rolling on the “weird” cavalcade by dropping the label during interviews with legacy outlets like MSNBC and Politico, among others.

Vance, though, had places to go and people to see, while fulfilling his obligations as former President Donald Trump’s running mate; he headed out on a western swing of the campaign trail.

During one of his stops in Nevada on Tuesday evening, he closed his remarks by asking the crowd “a simple question” about the presumed Democrat nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris:

On Wednesday, he headed to Arizona, to speak to a rally at Arizona Christian University, a small, Christian college in the western suburbs of Phoenix, in Glendale.

In a lighthearted callback to a supporter-favorite, Donald Trump line, Vance mentioned the media set up at the back of the venue. He said they were the fake news, but that, “[s]ome of them are okay.”

He spoke about the sudden, bizarre, fake Southern accent that Harris sported during the Atlanta event on Tuesday:

Vance talked about ripped-from-the-headlines news, like the Biden-Harris Justice Department (DOJ) “cut[ting] a deal” Wednesday with 9/11 terrorists, which my colleague Streiff wrote on (See: Biden’s Pentagon Approve Plea Deal for 9/11 Conspirators but Won’t Tell the Terms of the Agreement).

He then spoke about Harris’ reaction to the results of Sunday’s Venezuela presidential election, describing it as “coddling dictators.” 

Vance reminded rallygoers about Harris’ time as California’s top prosecutor, and echoing TV ads playing across the Copper State, called her “dangerous” and a “San Francisco liberal.”

He said the media’s “gaslighting us about Harris’ radical record”:

“The same media that told us for three-and-a-half years,[that] Joe Biden, who couldn’t finish a sentence, was Albert Einstein; now, they tell us Kamala Harris is Abraham Lincoln,” Vance said.

“But anyone who is too blind to see Biden’s incompetence or, more likely, too dishonest to admit it, is not fit to serve as president of the United States.”

 Kari Lake, who on Tuesday became the GOP’s Arizona U.S. Senate nominee with her primary victory over Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb,  spoke earlier in the program, but Vance invited her to the stage to say a few words. She began by stating, “This momma bear is ready to get America back” after Trump-Vance returns to the White House in the November elections.

Then, when talking about the lobbyists in the Swamp, as she told a story about Sen. Vance warning her about them during a visit to his Capitol Hill office, the Republican senatorial nominee assured Arizonans, “I don’t want to make any lobbyist friends. I have enough friends in Arizona!”
