Senator Vance has been a powerful addition to the Trump ticket. He plays no games.
And J.D. Vance just called Kamala Harris a moron in the best way possible in a Fox interview.
Senator J.D. Vance Blasts Kamala Harris’ Inflation Policies, Questions Her Viability as a Presidential Candidate
During a recent appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” Republican Senator J.D. Vance from Ohio delivered a scathing critique of Vice President Kamala Harris’ handling of economic policy and her prospects as the Democratic presidential nominee. Vance likened the idea of Harris controlling inflation to giving the late Jeffrey Epstein authority over human trafficking policy, a comparison intended to underscore his belief that Harris is extremely unqualified to manage the issue.
Vance’s comments come as Harris gains momentum in polls against former President Donald Trump, who remains the leading Republican candidate for 2024. Some within the GOP have expressed concerns about Trump’s campaign strategy, but Vance is confident that voters won’t perceive Harris as a “fresh start,” dismissing her policy proposals as merely a continuation of the current administration’s failed initiatives.
Vance was skeptical about the recent polling data favoring Harris, citing the inaccuracy of past polls leading up to the 2016 and 2020 elections. “Polls tend to radically overstate Democrats,” Vance said, noting that Harris’ surge in support might be short-lived. According to Vance, internal data from his party suggests that Harris’ initial boost in the polls has already plateaued.
The Ohio senator also claimed that Harris’ own campaign team is uneasy about her association with President Joe Biden’s administration, given the widespread discontent with Biden’s performance. “If you talk to insiders in the Kamala Harris campaign, they’re very worried,” Vance remarked, asserting that voters do not believe Harris—who has served as vice president for over three years—will suddenly find solutions to problems she has been unable to address thus far.
“Giving Kamala Harris control over inflation policy… is like giving Jeffrey Epstein control over human trafficking policy,” Vance continued. “The American people are much smarter than that. They don’t buy the idea that Kamala Harris represents a fresh start. It’s more of the same, doubling down on failed policies.”
Harris recently outlined her economic vision during a speech in North Carolina, proposing measures like a federal ban on “corporate price gouging” in grocery stores. However, these ideas have drawn significant criticism, with many arguing they are unrealistic. Despite this, Harris leads Trump in the latest ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll, garnering 51% support among likely voters compared to Trump’s 45%. Among registered voters, her lead narrows slightly to 49% versus Trump’s 45%.
Though, one extremely important factor to consider is that all the national polls had Donald Trump far behind both Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Both of those contests ended up being somewhat close, especially in 2020. In 2016, Donald Trump was severely underestimated by the polls. History would indicate the same is likely to happen again. For Harris, that would be bad news considering she is well behind where Clinton and Biden were at this point in their races against Donald Trump.
Despite her overall advantage, the poll reveals that voters remain hesitant to trust Harris on critical issues such as the economy, inflation, and immigration. Trump holds a nine-point lead over Harris regarding who voters believe is better suited to handle the economy and inflation, as well as a ten-point lead on immigration and border security.

Kamala Harris Takes Heat For Fairy Tale Economic Plans
Immediately after sharing her new plans for the American economy, Kamala Harris faced immense backlash from her own allies in the Democrat Party and in the mainstream media who normally do everything they can to give her flowery coverage.
One Obama official who worked in the Obama administration as a top economist even said that he hopes she was joking about these economic plans like giving out free downpaying assistance for first-time home buyers because they simply won’t work.
Even CNN couldn’t hide their blushing over how moronic some of her plans are, with one analyst saying that her plans are eerily similar to the ones that have brought food shortages to countries like Venezuela and the late Soviet Union.
🚨🚨🚨 MUST WATCH 🚨🚨🚨
CNN just DESTROYED Kamala Harris' economic agenda.
