Now that Biden has deferred to Kamala Harris, Trump is having to retool with his disadvantageous running mate already locked in. Tim Alberta, staff writer for the Atlantic, talks with Alex Wagner.

    The great thing about Vance as VP is that he’s destroying his career while hurting Trump’s campaign. Its a twofer
  • @marykirby7406
    Hope Kamala chooses another attorney with teeth to take Trump and his MAGAs apart, and set term limits for the Supreme Court.

    Don't say "Ohio is in the bag". I'm in Ohio and I'm voting blue 💙. Abortion rights were on the ballot and passed. Don't assume anything. He's not going to win, regardless.
  • @J3NN4F1R3
    Mountain dew = racist = "is good" ??? Um what dude 😂
  • @CGKP7450
    I'm voting for the woman who is ready on day one, not the man who says he'll be a dictator on day one.
  • @user-fg1we6hu3d
    I love the crowd behind him, they have absolutely no clue what they're listening at.

    Touch hot stove = pain = touch hot stove again = MAGA
  • @bluebonbon22
    The whole race is different now. Trump couldn't conceive that anyone already in power would give it up so he isn't prepared for what just happened.
  • @TCDShow
    JD … why would anyone vote for a guy who laughs at his own jokes? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
  • @stacythomas5072
    Vance quoted as saying women should stay in a marriage even if violent. And zero instances for abortion. Not a good look for anyone who thinks women should have autonomy.
  • @wadedavid4375
    I said earlier, that Vance would be an Albatross around Trumps neck, that he would Regret Choosing!!
  • @thesnakeman8006
    Biden dropping out and supporting kamala for president is his way of giving trump, team trump, AND the entire realm of trump world the BIGGEST middle finger ever,🖕,in my opinion. I mean,sure it was probably all for the best for biden to step down but clearly they were not prepared for this, now they have to deal with kamala. (Not complaining, just pointing something out)
  • @chrisfinch8637
    Good thing this change was done, just after the Republican National Convention.
  • @mac888spectral7
    The weirdest thing is your newfound fondness for a convict/predator, JD.
  • A fellow World citizen from Norway here; PLEASE stay united against trump and the truly nefarious Project 2025, good people. PLEASE keep up the good fight. For yourselves and your children, for your rights and freedom, for sanity, decency, progress, democracy. For the rest of the world as well, and for our planet. Channel your frustration, anxiety, anger, sadness, exasperation, and also the good emotions you hopefully have, into positive action. 💙✨️💙⚡️ VOTE!!! ⚡️💙✨️💙
  • @GregoryFiege
    JD Vance has no personality or charisma at all. And people thought that Al Gore and Mike Pence were bad on the stump...
  • @UAL320
    My next question is who’s going to do the JD Vance “Mountain Dew” parody on SNL this weekend???
