J.D. Vance Can’t Even Say That Trump Lost the 2020 Election.

Not exactly surprising, but amusing and concerning nonetheless.

Well, the debate between the Vice Presidential candidates J.D. Vance and Tim Walz did not go exactly how I anticipated it would.

If we’re being honest, I’m not sure I expected it to be as substantive as it was, and for the conversation to be so productive all things considered. I also didn’t expect to see Walz struggle as much as he did at first. Although, it showed a bit of a refreshing human side to him, as you could certainly attribute it to nerves. You could see him getting more and more comfortable as the night went on, and he shined particularly when it came to the topics of abortion and of course…the 2020 election and January 6th.

One thing I found interesting was the fact that Vance wouldn’t even admit that Trump lost the election.

We all know why he wouldn’t admit it.

To be clear, I know there’s no doubt in the mind of J.D. Vance that the former Presidenr lost the 2020 election fair and square. It would be ridiculous to pretend otherwise. That said, we know if he had even hinted at acknowledging that fact, Trump legitimately may have kicked him off the ticket.
