Before Republicans introduce JD Vance to the nation, Vice President Kamala Harris has her own message about her GOP counterpart. In a campaign video, Harris called the U.S. Senator a “rubber stamp” for Donald Trump’s agenda.
“Make no mistake,” Harris says directly to the camera, “J.D. Vance will be loyal only to Trump, not to our country.”
Trump, the Republican nominee for President, announced Vance as his running mate as the Republican National Convention (RNC). The Ohio Republican will address the RNC Wednesday night, a day before Trump closes out the convention with his own address.
Harris and Vance will face one another later this year at a vice presidential debate. But Harris is already tossing rhetorical punches at the candidate looking to replace her as Vice President.
“Donald Trump has picked his new running mate: JD Vance,” she said in the video. “Trump looked for someone he knew would be a rubber stamp for his extreme agenda.”
The video was shot vertically, suggesting the campaign wants primarily to reach voters on digital platforms, where that format is more popular. She attacked his rhetoric over his two years in the Senate. She also attacked his support of the controversial Project 2025 agenda, a conservative think tank product from which Trump has tried to distance himself but which was crafted by groups closely tied to Trump and Vance.
“He supports a national abortion ban and voted against protecting IVF,” Harris said in her video. “And if elected, he will help implement the extreme Project 2025 plan for a second Trump term, which would target critical programs like Head Start and Medicare. But we are not going to let that happen.”
She also pounced on statements Vance made in February to ABC News. In an interview with “This Week,” he told anchor George Stephanopoulos that if he were Vice President after the 2020 election, he would have “told the states, like Pennsylvania, Georgia and so many others, that we needed to have multiple slates of electors and I think the U.S. Congress should have fought over it from there.”
That’s not what Mike Pence, Trump’s Vice President at the time, did. Pence, based on legal advice, said he had no role but to accept slates of electors already certified by the states.
“Unlike Mike Pence, Vance said he would have carried out Trump’s plan to overturn the 2020 election,” Harris said in her video.

Good Morn ‘Ting America,
Relax your Political Sphincters, because:
Just like her boss, Dook Biden, Dook Harris must be told what to “Say”.
Neither of these “Dook Puppets” are allowed to go on record with any of their own rambeling incoherant thoughts ….. EVER.
They both are totally that incompentant.

Vance is going to shred Ka Mana in the debate. The moderators will have to run cover for her and of course they will.

JD Vance has, and will continue, to sell his soul to the highest bidder. Of real concern is his fanboy admiration of Viktor Orban. Isolationism was never a winning strategy for the US, but illiberal nationalism as embraced by Vance is far more dangerous. And if you look at the economic policies, people in the lower economic rungs will be screwed, once again.

Stop with your nonsense Michael K. Nothing was given to Vance. He worked his way up. He probably used his GI Bill to put himself through college and law school. You see the opportunity is there for everyone except some just don’t want to work for it. Some want to click on that six figure salary icon at Amazon and magically it is delivered at their doorstep the next day. It’s not easy out there but don’t expect it to be handed to you.

Let’s say I put a Trump 2024 bumper sticker on my car. What do you think will happen to it in the parking lot?
Impeach Biden

Really Mr Moderator? Then again you are obviously part of the Demo coverup machine that got exposed two weeks ago.

Hopefully Biden wins and continues his plans for America.
(Not against America like 2025)
And in a few years he can resign and leave Kamala as an incumbent to run in 2028.
