THIS IS NOT A LEAK!

JD Vance told his son to “shut the hell up” about his Pokémon cards while he was on the phone with Trump.

Vance tells this story on himself, freely and without coercion. It’s basically the “Access Hollywood” tape, except Vance IS doing it for broadcast. 

He wants to seem like a frat boy dick for the audience. And he knows it’s not an audience of one.

Real smooth operator. This is Kristi Noem level cluelessness.

Same podcasr:

JD Vance guessed that the viral “weird” descriptor being used to describe him originated from Kamala Harris’ “24 year-old social media interns” trying to bully him and insists he is just “a normal guy.” pic.twitter.com/DBmxPAYSQl

Same cluelessness. Maybe just a little more self-pity. Now it’s the frat boy sneering at the “non-Greek” nerds who are jealous because frat boys are so kewl.

The outreach efforts of the GOP ticket are just so inspiring.
