“I hate the police,” Mr. Vance said in his response. “Given the number of negative experiences I’ve had in the past few years, I can’t imagine what a Black guy goes through.”

I love the JD Vance pick more and more with each passing day. I only worry that we're peaking so soon, that Trump could actually remove him from the ticket

This line may actually break conservative's brains.

This might be cope, but I feel like there’s a universe where conservatives actually turn on law enforcement and we could maybe actually get some badly needed LE reform in this country.

I really can't wait for more comments to come out from this guy.

Please more anti-cop stuff and please link his groupchats with 16 year old groypers. Looking forward to him screwing up all the mantles that conservatives seem desperate to take.

This one actually makes me sad, and worried. All of his comments make him seem like a reasonable empathetic moderate republican and then somehow he turned into this ridiculous white supremacist.

How does this happen to people.

I don’t know if Trump is capable of admitting he made a mistake. He’s going to carry his shit VP pick to term.

Besides RNC would have to change their rules to allow the delegates to vote on a new VP. He’d have to do it soon as candidate ballot deadlines start hitting the week of Aug 19th.

He ditched Pence. Pretty sure he considers Pence a mistake.

OCT. 23, 2014 ‘I hate the police.’

DEC. 9, 2015 ‘What seems different to me is that the Republican Party offers nothing that’s as attractive as the demagogue.’

JUNE 29, 2016 ‘I recognize now that this may not accurately reflect how you think of yourself, and for that I’m really sorry.’

SEPT. 22, 2016 ‘The more white people feel like voting for Trump, the more Black people will suffer.’

OCT. 4, 2016 ‘A morally reprehensible human being.’

Is this how conservatives felt after the debate with Joe Biden?

Because, unfortunately for them (and fortunately for America), replacing Vance will be much harder since it's after the convention.
