JD Vance Roasted For Line That Inadvertently Seemed To Insult Donald Trump
HuffPost
The vice president received a brutal reminder.
Vice President JD Vance faced ridicule on Sunday over what critics mockingly suggested was an inadvertent insult of Donald Trump.
Appearing on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” Vance was defending U.S. strikes on Iran as he told anchor Kristen Welker that he could “certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East.”
“I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents,” Vance said. “And now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America’s national security objectives.”
The comment raised eyebrows, especially given how Trump was president for four years during the quarter-century period Vance referred to, alongside George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
Vance also promised the current strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities wouldn’t turn into “some long, drawn-out thing,” saying: “We’ve got in, we’ve done the job of setting their nuclear program back.”
