JD Vance Battles CNN’s Jake Tapper

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) battled CNN host Jake Tapper on Sunday during a lengthy interview just days ahead of the presidential election.

The vice presidential nominee remain composed while Tapper repeatedly got heated throughout the interview on the network’s “State of the Union” show.

During one exchange, Tapper got heated while bringing up former Trump officials who are not backing Trump in the 2024 election, including one who now works on ABC News’ “The View.”

“Do you know one reason why Kamala Harris doesn’t have as many people criticizing her, is because she doesn’t fire people who fail,” Vance said. “That’s why we haven’t had a real audit of the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal is because Kamala Harris protects failures in government.”

“Donald Trump fires them,” he added. “And I would much rather have the president who fires people who screw up.”

WATCH:

Vance grilled Tapper on some of the hoaxes that CNN has promoted against Trump, including the Russia collusion hoax that it promoted for years.

“Ask yourself a basic question about network integrity,” Vance said. “You guys talked about the Russia hoax nonstop.”

Tapper responded: “The FBI was investigating it. The FBI was investigating it. So, we covered them.”

“And so you took the words of unnamed FBI agents and put them on your network as if they were the gospel truth,” Vance responded. “You did it again and again.”

“A viewer of your network would’ve believed that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin conspired in 2016,” he continued. “Now that was totally and preposterously false.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
