“The reason that I changed my mind on Donald Trump is actually perfectly highlighted by what’s going on in Springfield,” Vance said. “Because the media and the Kamala Harris campaign, they’ve been calling the residents of Springfield racist, they’ve been lying about them. They’ve been saying that they make up these reports of migrants eating geese, and they completely ignore the public health disaster that is unfolding in Springfield at this very minute. You know who hasn’t ignored it? Donald Trump.”

ho-ly shit. I don't even know how to react anymore.

Vance, once again, nailed by the way back machine of the Internet archives. Rarely is anything ever really gone. Except for text messages between Secret Service agents on January 6.

Its called an opportunist. They are fairweather fans that blow wherever the breeze takes them and hold no views or convictions of their own. They are the spineless chaffe that makes up most of a fascism shake.

Nelson told CNN that during the 2016 Republican primary he agreed to delete the article at Vance’s request, so that Vance might have an easier time getting a job in Republican politics

And here I was hoping it was recent and he paid the guy to remove it and then doesn't report it becomes an illegal campaign contribution.

JD Vance has shown he is nothing but a liar. Can we cancel him and move on?

I appreciate that you’re signal boosting “weird” but I think this is full-on “shitty”.

Oh, the ol’ reach-around, eh?

We learn more about Vance everyday…

As much as it fills me with joy to see fascists like JD Vance get mauled by their own past words, I hate how much this will be propped up as an argument against him today.

I think we can all agree that people change their minds, whether it be from propaganda, malicious intent, or genuine education, so the only thing he has to do to escape this line of attack is just say "my opinions changed."

I'm sure that to a degree, he still believes what he originally wrote, but has simply repressed it in favor of being able to do less thinking about his political positions, and garner more public attention and power.
