Just about every time J.D. Vance — the most unpopular vice presidential nominee in American history — opens his mouth, he ignites a firestorm of criticism and likely shaves another point off the Republican presidential ticket’s polling numbers.
On Sunday, in an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Vance admitted that he and Donald Trump made up a baseless and racist story about Haitian immigrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.
“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually has to pay attention to the suffering of American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,” said Vance, a U.S. Senator representing Ohio.
Ironically, Vance’s attempt to point out imagined “suffering” has led to actual suffering by his own constituents.
If they both made it up, why aren’t there calls for both to resign?
And then write Harry Potter style books about himself!

Well they technically didn’t make it up. They are repeating the words from a Neo-Nazi group called Blood Tribe who were marching through Springfield with Swastika flags.
Could actually be worse than just making it up.
Instead of being a dumbass that’s a bit racist, he’s a mouthpiece for Nazi propaganda. That’s a whole lot worse than making it up.
I’ve seen this repeated a few times and I don’t think it really holds up. Drake Berentz (who gives his name as Nate Haggers because racists think that’s funny) did not really mention anything about eating pets. The guy is a piece of shit and maybe they helped spread the initial post but that piece of shit’s words at the council meeting are not the source. It really just seems to stem from the casually racist Karen on social media who is sad now that everything has blown up.
Although if Berentz (who is a carnie) is the one who made the fake 911 call back in late August about Haitians eating geese in the park, I am clearly wrong.
Because only one of them is actively serving as a US Senator for Ohio, the state in which the supposed migrant pet eating crisis is taking place. The other doesn’t have a job to resign from.
A conservative king can lie as he pleases it would seem, but apparently their VPs are expendable.
We already learned that in the aftermath of Jan 6th.
My question is why do these people continue lining up to serve said “king”?
Maybe that’s why they ended up with Vance as the pick? A relative newcomer who’d risk getting sacrificed to become a more hosehold name? I can certainly imagine others looking on at the at end of Pence’s tenure and choosing to avoid the position.
