Trump says ‘you’re voting for the president … you’re voting for me’ when asked about vice-presidential pick
Donald Trump has said that vice presidential picks have “virtually no impact” on elections when asked about JD Vance’s fitness for office, in an apparent attempt to downplay his running mate’s role on the Republican ticket.
Trump made the comments during a combative interview at the annual convention of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) in Chicago. Asked by the Fox News journalist Harris Faulkner whether Vance would be ready to take over “on day one, if he has to be”, Trump avoided answering directly and instead downplayed the significance of the Vance’s role.
At the end he said, “if you like me i win. If you don’t like me i don’t win.”
I was shocked that he actually appeared to be living in reality for a moment.
This statement really captures how he has officially become the sad clown. Clowns are such weird people. To have one be so sad, and also so old, is very unappealing.
