Sen J.D. Vance (R-OH) could soon be a heartbeat away from the Oval Office, and that’s a terrifying prospect, according to Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), who called Vance “the baby of MAGA and QAnon” during an appearance on MSNBC.
Speaking with host Nicolle Wallace, Goldman noted that just minutes after failed former president Donald Trump was shot in Pennsylvania, Vance was on social media blaming President Joe Biden and Democrats for what the FBI is calling a failed assassination attempt.
“I mean, it’s so extreme, you know, it’s like if Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump got together and hatched something, and that’s J.D. Vance,” Goldman explained. “It’s insane — some of his views. His extremism on abortion — no exception for rape or incest. He has said he would not have certified the last election and will not guarantee that he will certify this election. He has overtly supported Vladimir Putin and Russia in his effort to take over the democratic country of Ukraine.”
The New York Democrat added that Vance is a “neophyte and a novice who has flip-flopped over the last several years after being a NeverTrumper and calling him the potential next American Hitler to now selling his soul so that he can rise the ranks, and Donald Trump loves that.”
J.D. Vance is indeed a member of the extreme right wing of the Republican Party. He has suggested that women should stay in abusive marriages for the sake of their children and made it clear that he thinks all abortions should be banned in the United States, even if a pregnancy was the result of rape or incest.
In other words, Vance is the perfect running mate for Donald Trump because both of them are direct threats to the American republic.
