If you missed the CNN interview Dana Bash had with JD Vance Sunday morning, I‘m going to help you out by summarizing the worst parts before you watch the full interview.
It started with Dana questioning Vance about the Haitian immigrant rumor he started online.
He defended himself, claiming that he was just bringing a complaint from one of his constituents in Springfield, Ohio to light since the media ignores the problems surrounding immigration.
Dana didn’t ask him this question, but I would have asked him why he would take a story told by someone calling in, claiming to be a cconstituent (could’ve been anyone.), without even investigating to see if it’s true before spreading misinformation and hate online.
The worst part was when she asked him about the school closures because of bomb threats—in one case the threat specifically stated that it was targeting Haitian immigrants—and asked how he felt about causing that. Vance got angry and so offended that she would lie and make it seem like it was his false claim that caused the problems in Springfield (IT WAS!).
Finally, he said multiple times that the Haitian immigrants were “undocumented” and here “illegally” because of Kamala Harris. None of which is true!
Here’s the full interview, thanks to Forbes. Enjoy!
