Jaddy Vance has been largely missing for the past two weeks, only making very small appearances,
not really tweeting like he used to, and we just found out why, because he came out through a leak
and attacked Donald Trump trying to distance himself from this unpopular, unconstitutional war.
And I don't know if this is going to work out for Jaddy Vance, but he's trying.
Now, we know that MAGA is not on board with this.
at all. In fact, in fact, we have some of the biggest stars in MAGA saying that this is a disaster.
Why are you mad at Trump right now?
I think this war is a disaster. Disaster. Utterly pointless. He,
the three pillars of the Trump campaign, both in 2016 and 2020, that set him apart from
every other Republican and every other Democrat. I mean, for the first time, this is the basket of
issues I wanted to vote on. Number one, the wall, deport illegals, the whole immigration program.
Number two, bring back manufacturing, the tariff stuff. I'm all in favor of that. Our working
class in America has been absolutely wiped out. I don't think we need a lot of schlock from China.
Why are we building them up? I mean, I think a lot of it has to do with labor unions,
but solve the problem of labor unions. Don't just outsource everything we make, either by bringing them
here to work cheap or by having it done over there. And the third pillar was no more pointless
wars. And I mean, I think I'm in a good position to say this. There was no one more enthusiastic
about both the Afghanistan and Iraq war when they began. It was, of course, right after 9-11,
and the country didn't just have another two million illegals dumped on it. We weren't going through
all of this transgender madness.
We weren't quite as in hoc to China.
So the country itself wasn't in nearly as much trouble.
Oh my gosh, the crime right now.
Think of the crime.
The Democratic policy is just released.
It's like a Facebook, it's like a Facebook comment come to life.
It's just so much insanity.
But as you can hear there, I mean, we're not going to let this woman talk forever.
But as you can hear there, she is upset.
Isn't Anne Coulter?
I mean, she was one of the few people actually was for Trump in 2016.
And this is a huge sign that there is a big disconnect in what's happening through our government and what MAGA actually wants.
I have one more example for you here before we did the JDVN story.
Here's Nick Fuentes saying that if you don't vote for a Democrat, you're being disloyal.
Oh, let's not.
I promised myself that I would never vote for a Democrat, but you made a great case.
Me and all my niggas voting Democrat in 26.
Anyone who doesn't is a pussy who isn't willing to do whatever it takes to win.
Also a huge sign of disloyalty. Is Faith Merle Arab or Indian?
That's so true. If you don't vote Democrat, you are disloyal and a pussy.
You are a disloyal pussy. I have seen what people do that will not vote Democrat and it disgusts me.
And it disgusts me. People don't vote Democrat. They do somersaults on Israel's dick.
vote Democrat or else
fuck you
and the reason why he's saying that
is because in the same reason that Ann Coulter
is saying what she's saying
and that's because they feel
like Donald Trump has gone against
everything that he ran
ran on. Now
you, an informed viewer, someone
who actually pays attention and knows
who Donald Trump is because you're not
fed slop through right-wing
algorithms or Fox News.
you actually understand that.
If you're paying even a little bit of attention, you'd be like, oh, yeah, no shit Donald Trump
didn't keep his promises.
You mean, like he's done his entire life?
The man wouldn't even pay contractors who help build his buildings.
So, yeah, I'm not really surprised that Donald Trump isn't a man of his word.
So regardless, I'm glad people are paying attention now.
I'm glad that they're doing what they can to push back on this illegal war.
and if Nick Fuentes wants to tell his young right-wing followers to vote Democratic,
I'm all for that too.
Now, that is what brings us to this moment.
It brings us to this moment where J.D. Vance has leaked to Politico that he's, quote,
a skeptical voice in the White House on Iran strikes.
I'm going to go through a little bit of this.
I'm going to tell you why it's happening.
Vice President J.D. Vance was skeptical of the U.S. striking Iran in the lead-up
to President Donald Trump's decision to launch the war.
war, two senior Trump officials told political, hmm, I wonder who those two senior Trump officials could be.
It says here, Vance is, quote, skeptical, is worried about success and just opposes the war on Iran.
A senior Trump official said via text message, the official was granted anonymity to speak about the vice president's views.
And then a second senior Trump official said his role is to provide the president and the administration all points of views of
of what could happen for many different angles, and he does that.
But once the decision has been made, he's fully on board.
Okay.
So, J.D. Vance, first off, this is so calculated.
This is so calculated.
The reason why J.D. Vance is doing this is because he thinks he's going to be running for
president in 2028.
He can see that if Marco Rubio also runs for president in 2028, this is going to be a dividing
line between the two of them because obviously Marco Rubio is completely tied to this war
and J.D. Vance wants to be the person who says no new wars. But J.D. Vance is naive,
if maybe that's probably the nicest thing I could say about him. Because, I mean, Kamala Harris
was vice president and she got tied for every single bad thing that happened in the Biden administration.
I mean, she had absolutely no power at all, and she was still attacked as though it was her launching the bombs into Gaza.
No, of course.
She could have, I don't understand why her team didn't do something similar to this with Gaza.
I truly don't know what her position on that, what was truly ethnic cleansing happening between Israel,
and Gaza, like what her position on that was? We've never really been able to know. Like,
does she really think that Israel was justified in the many atrocities it did? We don't know.
But I will say J.D. Vance, though naive, is at least trying to show that there's some distance
between him and Trump. I wish Kamala Harris would have created a shit ton of distance between
her and Biden. And perhaps we won't even be talking about these losers today.
But I suppose that's beyond besides the point.
But J.D. Vance is also, I think, creating a bigger problem for himself.
Because one thing, Donald Trump's not on YouTube, okay?
Donald Trump's not scrolling through YouTube watching me.
Donald Trump does pay attention to legacy media.
He really does want legacy media to make him look good.
And when people step out of line, Donald Trump has a problem with him.
that. Christy Noem wasn't fired because Renee Good was murdered. She wasn't fired because Alex
Pready was murdered. She wasn't fired because they accidentally deported American citizens
and detained American citizens with no due process. Any other president would have done that.
Any other DHS head when this would have happened would have resigned.
Christy Noem was fired because she stepped out of line, said that Donald Trump did something that he says he didn't do, whether or not he did it.
I don't know. I tend to believe that she probably is telling the truth that Donald Trump did approve the money for the ads, those fucking cringe ads that she put out.
But the second that Christy Noem said something that made Donald Trump look bad, she was gone.
Does this make Donald Trump look bad? I don't think it makes them look great.
Trump said that Vance is, quote, philosophically, a little different for me. I think he was maybe
less enthusiastic about going, but he was still quite enthusiastic. So there is Trump kind of saying,
like, what Vance is saying in this article isn't what Vance thinks. J.D. Vance's spokesperson said,
the vice president has been the focus of constant links left and right by people trying to
project their views onto him. And as a result, there have been countless inconsistent accounts
of the vice president's views published, which shows the mainstream media has no idea what they're talking
about the vice president, a proud member of the president's national security team,
keeps his counsel to the president private. Not a denial, by the way. Not a denial.
Okay. The White House said that they're trying to drive a wedge between the president and the
vice president. I don't know if they're trying to drive a wedge, but that's what's happening.
Now, this is, as I said, this is very calculated. This only happens if J.D. Vance says that he
wants a story out there that says that he does not, is not fully on board of this war. The reason why
doing that is because MAGA is the base doesn't want this. He knows it. Donald Trump is,
I don't know what he's doing. I don't know why he is doing something that is base vehement, vehemently
disagrees with. But he is. And so JD Vance, Toka Carlson, they all see an opening. And I don't
think J.D. Vance is going to be president. But I think this could potentially prevent him from really
getting able to try because Donald Trump is not going to forget about this at all.
