Senator JD Vance (R-OH) has become a powerhouse on the campaign trail since GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump selected him as his running mate this past July.

Vance’s straightforward, no-nonsense style stands in stark contrast to Trump’s energetic and bold campaigning, but their differing approaches blend well, making them a dynamic duo for the Republican ticket.

As reported by Red State, Vance recently underscored his commitment to defending conservative values when he responded to President Joe Biden’s incendiary remarks aimed at Trump supporters.

On a call intended to rally Latino voters, Biden labeled Trump supporters as “garbage.”

Biden’s divisive comments cast a dark shadow over Democrat VP nominee Kamala Harris, who was delivering a “unity” speech in Washington, D.C., at that very moment.

With impeccable timing, Vance seized the moment and quickly took Biden to task.

Wasting no time, Vance posted a blistering message on social media, stating, “This is disgusting. Kamala Harris and her boss Joe Biden are attacking half of the country. There’s no excuse for this. I hope Americans reject it.”

His statement made it clear that the Republican ticket won’t tolerate any attempt to alienate or demonize half the country’s voters.

But Vance didn’t stop there. He then turned his sights on Politico for attempting to water down Biden’s comment. Politico, which has often leaned left in its reporting, received a sharp rebuke from Vance, who criticized them for “trying to play clean-up for Biden” while lacking journalistic integrity.

He accused Politico of echoing White House narratives, helping to downplay Biden’s divisive statements right before a major election. Vance’s unfiltered approach cut through media spin, pointing to a growing trend of certain outlets running interference for the White House.

Vance’s criticism of the media, especially when it’s perceived as bending the truth to protect Democratic candidates, echoes the frustration of many conservatives. They see these tactics as a repeat of the infamous “50+ former intelligence officials” story in October 2020, which attempted to dismiss the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.

Vance and his supporters are calling for Americans to stand up to biased media narratives by making their voices heard at the ballot box.

For Republicans, this election represents more than a choice between candidates; it’s an opportunity to send a message to the media that their one-sided tactics are no longer effective.
