Schumer Spews Out Fantasy Scenario Of Trump Wanting To Ditch JD Vance…Graham Wipes It Away Instantly

Posted • July 28, 2024: There's a new narrative going around from the Left about the Republican presidential ticket--get this: They're weird! CNN's Jake Tapper pointed out on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday, when talking to Minnesota Democrat Governor Tim Walz, that the lawmaker appears to be the originator of this new tactic, when Dems had been--before the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump about two weeks ago--railing nonstop against the Republican nominee as "an existential threat to democracy" and the like. Walz explained that he continues to believe those fear-mongering statements, but was troubled by Trump talking during rallies about random things, like "shocking sharks" and the antagonist fictional character,"Hannibal Lector." Walz's the one, perhaps, we have to thank for this recent turn (sort of), which is popping up among other Kamala Harris surrogates and Democrats on the Sunday Show circuit.

One of them was Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who sat down with CBS' "Face The Nation," and spewed this garbage to Americans about Trump's running mate, Senator JD Vance (R-OH): Donald Trump picking JD Vance as his running mate "may be one of the best things he ever did for Democrats," Sen. Schumer says. "Every day, it comes out Vance has done something more extreme, more weird, more erratic…I'll bet President Trump is sitting there scratching his head and wondering, why did I pick this guy?” After praising the Biden-Harris "record" to high Heaven, the senator's voice takes on an ominous tone, as he "compares" it to "the Trump-Vance ticket" […] But it was Vance who the New York lawmaker showed up to smear, while concocting a fantasy about Donald Trump hoping against hope he can now find some excuse to ditch him immediately from the GOP ticket […] You can watch Schumer invent the scenario, if you can stomach it--something I don't recommend.

More enjoyable is watching this next clip of the GOP guest who followed him--Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). Graham appeared to relish the chance to wipe away the dishonest whisper campaign the progressives are waging against Vance since he was tapped by Trump. The host asked him if it's a political mistake for Vance to "keep talking about Americans who don't have children, when it comes to a national campaign." And let's just say, he wasn't having any of it, telling the fill-in host, CBS News' chief election and campaign correspondent, Robert Costa, how ridiculous the line of questioning was: Lindsey Graham, who notes that he does not have children, defends JD Vance's comments about Americans without children: "You should never say anything to hurt anybody's feelings, but when you look at all these interviews by JD, he was talking about how the Democrat Party has abandoned the traditional family."

(And while it's not part of the scope of this article, watch Graham trying his best to not crack up when the host asks him about Trump saying Christians won't have to vote again after this cycle. Costa's agast expression over Graham's amusement is satisfying.) Sen. Lindsey Graham responds to Donald Trump's recent rally comments that Americans "won't have to vote anymore" if he's elected again: "We will have democracy, God willing, for a very long time in this country. But what President Trump is trying to tell people — 'I did it once, I can do it again.'" That answer is just so excellent, you have to hope Graham will be used regularly across the country to stump for the positive, family-oriented message represented by the Trump (and now Vance) campaign. Something tells me the Left's new alleged concerns over Vance's weirdness have more to do with, well, moolah than cat-herding and marriage (…)
