JD Vance forgets you never admit to fake news
from Ballot with Patrick Gutfield - Where Politics Meets Pop Culture · host Political Humor Today's News / Caloroga Shark Media
Vance defended his tall tale on Sunday talk shows, saying, "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do." Oh, sure, JD. Because nothing says "I care about American suffering" like inventing wild stories that cause actual suffering to real Americans. Bravo!Jimmy Fallon said “Trump was like, ‘Everyone knows the first rule of fake news is not admitting to fake news. Yup, Vance admitted that he made the whole thing up, but besides being overtly racist and making Trump look like a total fool at the debate, no harm done, right?'”Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!
