J.D. Vance has joined the chorus of conservatives who have begun claiming that President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race constitutes a so-called “coup” in the Democratic Party.
In an interview filmed on Saturday with Fox News’s Jesse Watters, a clip of which aired on Fox & Friends Monday morning, Watters asked former President Donald Trump and his newly minted running mate, Vance, the new question plaguing Republicans: “Is it a coup against Joe Biden?” Both of them fumbled their answers.
“Uh, sort of,” Trump said unsure, looking over to Vance for explanation.
I wonder if tRump chose Vance because it kinda sounds like Pence. Easier to remember.
Or maybe he doesn’t want a VP candidate with a name that has more letters than he has.
I was joking just a few days ago that all those folks still flying “Trump - Pence” signs from 2020 or the really faded ones from 2016 just need to change the “PE” to “VA” and they’re good for another 4 years of sun bleaching.
Maybe he’ll call him pants at some point.
Didn’t he refer to him as JD Wentworth?
I don’t remember that one, but he did call him “J.P.”, then tried course correcting only to careen off road in the other direction with “J.D. Mandel” at a rally once
