JD Vance's defense of Trump's tone toward voters immediately blows up in his face

Vice President JD Vance tried defending President Donald Trump's tone by describing it as in line with the working class, and it backfired.The New York Times opinion columnist Ross Douthat asked Vance about the tone of Trump and the administration, saying that it "is not consistently a Christian tone. There is a tone of aggressive uncharity."Vance responded that "tonal arguments are ways of, frankly, policing working-class ways of communication and covering them in elite preferences."However, online commentators expressed offense at hearing Vance equate the Trump administration's tone with the way the working class speaks.Tim Miller, the host of The Bulwark podcast, summarized Vance's defense as "Working class people are all a— who don't care about their neighbor's feelings" in a post on X."It seems like he thinks that regular people are all sociopaths like him," Miller wrote. "Classic"MS NOW host and former Republican congressman Joe Scarborough said, "How insulting to suggest that hateful rhetoric that runs counter to the Gospel of Jesus Christ is just the way working class people talk—and that elites don’t get that.""What an absurd response," Reason reporter Billy Binion sounded off. "Donald Trump is not 'working class.' And this is very condescending toward people who actually *are* working class because it implies they're all mean and uncharitable by default. Is that all the respect JD Vance has for working people?"Journalist Jane Coaston, the host of What A Day, agreed, "I really think some people think that working class Americans are the worst human beings to ever live."Christian broadcaster Erick Erickson simply said, "Bad answer."

GOP members blame Iranian deal anger on JD Vance

President Donald Trump joked Vice President JD Vance would bear blame if the Iran peace deal fails, but Republicans are already privately criticizing the agreement while publicly remaining silent. Oil industry insiders and GOP lawmakers object to economic support for Iran and Trump's defense of Iran's ballistic missile rights, with one Republican calling it total surrender, reported Politico's Playbook. "Plenty of Republican lawmakers are also uncomfortable, in private at least," Playbook wrote. Vance's team welcomes the deal being framed as the "Vance Peace Deal," given the war's broad unpopularity, reports Dasha [Burns] on the Playbook Podcast. White House officials view ending the conflict as politically necessary, and Vance's willingness to front the agreement reflects this. A White House insider noted that GOP attacks inadvertently inoculate Vance from the war's unpopularity while positioning him to defend Trump from criticism. The dynamic paradoxically strengthens Vance's political standing as he defends the president against his own party's complaints.Watch the video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.

NO ONE predicted Joy Behar's shocking reaction to meeting JD Vance

In a stunning turn of events that no one predicted, Joy Behar may have told Vice President JD Vance he should run for president.Vance had a wide-ranging interview with the women of "The View" on Wednesday, where he was challenged on many of his political opinions.'Look, Joy Behar is way tougher than the Iranians — and she and I are best friends now.'After the interview, Behar indicated that she thought Vance had a "good vibe" "for a Republican" and admitted that he is "intelligent" enough to make an "interesting" presidential candidate. She made the comments on the "Behind the Table" podcast about the show. The show's executive producer, Brian Teta, asked Behar to discuss her private comments with Vance. Teta claimed Behar advised Vance off-camera to run for president, a claim Behar did not deny."I don't mind a Republican on the city level, because it needs a little discipline. But on the national level, I want somebody with a good heart, and those are more in the Democratic Party in my opinion," she clarified."They care about the poor. They help people," Behar claimed. "The Republican Party is much more about saving taxes for rich people. So I'm not a Republican."Teta revealed that Vance had said he was more nervous about appearing on "The View" than he had been about the vice presidential debate in 2024 against Gov. Tim Walz. Behar went on to praise Vance even more."I don't think that he's a bad guy. So if he runs against, say, a [California Democrat Gov.] Gavin Newsom, that would be an interesting debate to see those two, because they're both intelligent," she added.A video clip of the surprising interaction was posted to social media, where it garnered hundreds of thousands of views.Vance even pointed to their unlikely friendship when commenting on the Iran peace deal during a White House media briefing on Thursday.RELATED: 'Should be nowhere near Congress': Even 'The View' thinks Graham Platner is TERRIBLE "I have seen some progressive criticisms of me personally, saying, 'What experience does the vice president of the United States have with hostile, high-stakes negotiations?'" said Vance at the podium."And I would point those progressive critics to the fact that just two days ago, I spent over an hour on 'The View.' So I actually have a great experience in very hostile negotiations!" he added. "I mean, look, Joy Behar is way tougher than the Iranians — and she and I are best friends now, so we're gonna get to a good place."Video of his comments also received thousands of views.Like Blaze News?
