A Damning Non-Answer
Trump's MAGA movement and Project 2025 attacks on personal liberty and American democracy are unpopular with most voters—so they just lie.
During the VP Presidential Debate, J.D. Vance attempted to whitewash Trump's failed record and unpopular policies by lying about everything from abortion, healthcare, and immigration to climate change and tax cuts for billionaires. Vance's most outrageous lie was claiming that Trump saved Obamacare after repeatedly trying to overturn it. But the one thing Vance could not run from was Trump's Big Lie. After repeatedly refusing to admit that Trump lost the 2020 election, Tim Walz exposed Vance as an anti-democratic extremist by pointing out, "That is a damning non-answer."
They Went Crazy
Donald Trump and J.D. Vance have built a campaign based on racist lies, conspiracy theories and dangerous accusations that are completely detached from reality.
For years GOP leadership has empowered Trump to lie about everything. Now the Trump-Vance campaign has resorted to making up crazy stories to distract from their falling poll numbers and unpopular policies. In recent interviews, Vance said, "I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention," and Trump strangely claimed the support of a non-existing debate audience who didn't like him being fact-checked by moderators, saying "And the audience was absolutely – they went crazy.”
The Hillbilly Misogynist
Trump's pick for Vice President is an MAGA extremist who believes women should be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.
J.D. Vance is making all the wrong headlines for his unabashed sexist beliefs. In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Vance called Kamala Harris and other Democratic leaders, "childless cat ladies" who "want to make the rest of the country miserable." His dystopian vision for America is The Handmaid's Tale, where women only exist to make babies and serve the vanity of men.
The Perfect Frankenstein's Monster
Trump's pick for VP, J.D. Vance, has deep connections to the ultra conservative Heritage Foundation, Project 2025 and rightwing tech billionaires.
J.D. Vance was the self-described "never Trump guy," who once called the former president "America's Hitler." Now he is Trump's running mate, a MAGA culture warrior, and now has the strong backing of anti-government tech bros and crypto billionaires like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk. Governor Tim Walz accurately described J.D. Vance as “the perfect Frankenstein monster created by the Heritage Foundation.”
