JD Vance once begged voters to back Donald Trump to ‘avoid war’— now that claim is aging like milk
Since becoming Vice President of the United States, JD Vance has not really been the one to confront Donald Trump. Well, confrontation is a long shot, he has done nothing but agree with Trump’s actions, no matter how ridiculous they are. But, surprisingly, he has not always been like this. Before deciding to support Trump full-time, Vance was quite critical of his policies and other activities. That is a story for another time. For now, let’s discuss how Vance lied about Trump and his promises during his election campaign last year.
Donald Trump made several promises during his 2024 election campaign, and many people believed them because, of course, he was elected president of the United States, so it’s understandable. One of the main things he campaigned on was America First policies, including saying no to foreign wars. Not only Trump, but his Republican allies also supported it, including JD Vance. In the wake of the US’s attacks on Iran, one such video of Vance is circulating on social media, which clearly shows his double standards and those of people within the Trump administration.
JD Vance once asked people to vote for Trump to prevent war
As Donald Trump refuses to withdraw troops from Iran and continues to devastate its land and wreak havoc on its people, a video of JD Vance claiming that the Dorito dictator wouldn’t do exactly what he is doing now is going viral on social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter). The video is from September 28, 2024, showing JD Vance at a campaign event in Pennsylvania ahead of the presidential elections.
Here’s exactly what he said during the event: “If you’re worried about the world spinning out of control, if you’re worried about a military draft, if you’re worried about God forbid, a world war, the best way to prevent it is to vote for Donald Trump. I really believe that.” Well, look at us now, there’s peace everywhere.
Trump denies clash with Vance over Iran
Ever since Donald Trump launched attacks on Iran, JD Vance hasn’t been appearing in public and has quite naturally not said anything about the recent events. However, Donald Trump is letting everyone know what Vance’s position is on Iran. According to an article published by the Washington Post, Trump has revealed that he and Vance didn’t see eye to eye on his intentions in Iran.
Talking about the situation, Trump said that Vance was “philosophically a little bit different” from him when the US first attacked Iran. He also added that Vance maybe had been “less enthusiastic about going” into war, but stated that he felt that it was something that he “had to do” and didn’t have much choice in.
