Vance defends Trump when Trump drops the bunker buster bomb.

And at the time, a lot of people said, hey, Mr. Vice President, didn't you say you were going to be against this type of thing?

How does Vance navigate his clear and obvious disdain for foreign wars with President Trump, who at times exhibits the disdain and at times seems like he just really wants to get involved?

In September, of course, Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

What was Vance's relationship with Charlie Kirk?

And what did you see him doing in the aftermath of the killing?

It was interesting that the same guy who went to Europe early in the year and very passionately lectured the Europeans about free speech was, after Charlie Kirk's death, somebody who did not decry people losing their jobs for criticizing Charlie Kirk or making bad jokes at his expense.

What does he say?

In October, some messages from a Young Republicans group chat were leaked and there was lots of racism.

There was open anti-Semitism.

J.D.

Vance involved himself in that story.

How so?
