JD Vance v. New York Times

“I am much more worried about what happened after 2020…”

Kamala Harris has yet to hold a press conference since booting Biden to the curb. But she has appeared for some friendly “interviews” with a few Leftmedia talkingheads, attempting to advance her deception 2.0 strategy. Even then she did not help herself much, giving answers that undermine her assertion that she is “not Joe Biden.”

As you recall, when asked on “The View” if she would “have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years,” Harris missed that softball slow pitch and replied, “There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of, and I’ve been a part of, of, of most of the decisions that have had impact.”

However, given her numbers have been softening, Harris agreed to a brief interview with Bret Baer on Fox News.

As for her sidekick Tim “Stolen Valor” Walz, he remains AWOL from media interviews now that his record of lies about a plethora of topics is public.

Meanwhile, JD Vance has been hitting them out of the park.

Most recently, he sat down for a grilling by the socialist Democrat Party standard bearer, The New York Times. It did not go quite as one of their leftist Constitution shredders, Lulu Garcia-Navarro, anticipated.

First up, Lulu asserted that illegal immigrants should not be deported because we need the labor. (You know, the Democrat Party has a long history of advocating for subservient labor.) She then bolstered her argument by noting the unemployment rate.

Vance responded: “The unemployment rate does not count labor force participation dropouts. This is one of the really deranged things that I think illegal immigration does to our society. … It gets us in a mindset of saying, ‘We can only build houses with illegal immigrants.’ We have seven million men, not even women, just men who have completely dropped out of the labor force. … We cannot have an entire American business community that is giving up on American workers and then importing millions of illegal laborers. That is what we have, thanks to Kamala Harris’s border policies. I think it’s one of the biggest drivers of inequality. It’s one of the biggest reasons why we have millions of people who’ve dropped out of the labor force. Why try to reengage an American citizen in a good job if you can just import somebody from Central America who’s gonna work under the table for poverty wages? It is a disgrace, and it has led to the evisceration of the American middle class.”

Oops.

Lulu tried a different question: “Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?” She added, “There is no proof, legal or otherwise, that Donald Trump did not lose the 2020 election.”

Vance replied: “Did big technology companies censor a story that independent studies have suggested would have cost President Trump millions of votes? That’s the question.”

He then circled back: “I’m worried about Americans who feel like they were problems in 2020. I’m not worried about the slogan people throw — ‘Well, every court case went this way.’ I’m talking about … a problem of censorship in this country that I do think affected things in 2020 and, more importantly, led to Kamala Harris’s governance, which has screwed this country up in a big way. … I am much more worried about what happened after 2020, which is a wide-open border, grocery prices that are unaffordable…”

Oops.

Vance managed the interview, repeatedly bringing the questions back to the Biden/Harris regime’s abysmal record of domestic and foreign policy failures versus Donald Trump’s record of domestic and foreign policy successes.
