Never in my life have I seen someone speak with such confidence and tells the truth!

[@realglz]

You should check out the guy he’s running with.

[@melodymatters]

Sooo....you were born like 6 hrs ago? And then super rapidly learned to post stuff on KZbin? That seems a bit unlikely.

RED !!! For Prosperity and PEACE around the world !!!! Trump / Vance 2024 !!! MAGA !!! America First !!! I Love USA !!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Just want thank you Forbes for releasing these videos unedited. Much appreciated.

Great speech JD!I love you and may God bless USA!

My sister in law , a democrat ideologue, voted for trump ..😂…

[@georgevan2606]

I always explain to people that: nobody should vote blindly. We, as citizens, cannot be loyal to a party, because they work for us, not the other way around. Do we fire bad employees to hire good employees, or do we keep bad employees?

No matter how long you've been friends with someone, love them regardless of who they vote for, that's real friendship.

[@Dan-sc7us]

That's what I always thought, but MAGA is a whole different animal! I mean, I don't know those people any more!

[@claytonj001]

It's not the vote it's how they make decisions that makes them very dangerous.

[@1besieged]

Yes , I apply this to my family and friends but would not date nor marry a democrap!

[@rosalindajavier816]

Me Too !!!

[@donttreadonmetal5073]

friendship requires similarity and commonality. If you and someone else are ideologically opposed, you can't be friends, spouses, etc. the underlying current will always be there. best to avoid situations like that.

[@jamesgoforth5644]

At first I couldn't believe that Trump didn't choose Vivek as his VP, but after getting to know Vance I totally get it now.

[@dirtydingo250]

He's like, not hokey at all. He's really genuine. Like I imagine if Desantis was to say that he said including the jokes, it would come out so bad. I think if Trump wins, it's because of Vance. I've never seen a VP candidate with so much hustle. I see him campaigning a lot, and honestly, I think the "regular" (not maga) Republicans LOVE Vance.

Most parents love their kids. They’d do anything for them. Call your parents even if they’re democrats and tell them it would mean everything to you if they vote for Trump

[@Dan-sc7us]

I've already disowned my MAGA son!

[@xRiddleMeThisYouTube]

My mom refused to back me up for getting suspended from school. My crime? I wore a hood up in the hallways. The principal said it was indicative of "gang affiliation". This was 2007. If someone tells her they can set her son straight, she'll listen to them over me every time. She's going to vote Kamala because she's convinced I went down the rabbit hole with Trump.

[@blandspaghettidinner8949]

​@@Dan-sc7usso basically you're hatred for Trump and your country are far stronger than the love for your child. Speaks volumes of the people voting for Kamala.

[@blandspaghettidinner8949]

​@@Dan-sc7usso basically your hatred for your country and your hatred for Trump outweigh the love for your son. Speaks volumes of the people voting for Kamala.

[@Liberaltearsonelectionnight24]

I can’t respect anyone who voted for policies that have cost ME personally $12000 more a year to maintain my families same standard of living. These people voted for policies that have now cost me $48000 in the last four years just in higher costs of living. I won’t forget that, I won’t forgive that.

[@carlhungus2521]

I'm with you, I even made a list of all the actors supporting Harris and I have been watching every movie that those actors' characters die in. Pink has been going nuts talking crap about trump but there is a great video of her swinging around on stage way up in the air ..I guess to distract the audience from her singing.Anyway, she zigged when she should have zagged and then totally bought the farm. I only bring this up because she probably hit her head when she fell and scrambled her eggs so bad that she is now acting the way she is.

[@JennySmith-x4n]

We can't stand another 4 years like the last 4 with the current administration. Vote Red!!

[@rosalindajavier816]

Very Well Said !!!!!

[@eetoved1758]

This. An old friend of mine (who watches the view too much) ghosted me around the time of the first attempt on Trump's life. And we don't talk politics. In fact I don't even post anything anymore. We had one conversation at her request many years ago, a conversation that mostly centered around the media treatment of the subject of politics. And I have to say that the current events have brought it to my mind a lot too. She chose to stop talking to me. 💔

[@peggydill4176]

Sorry to hear that you're friend is so closed minded

[@user-yv7kw1nr2q]

Ironic on the drug issues, but something really bad also is that the USDA allows outside companies to self regulate when labeling foods imported organic. These companies claim to certify foreign foods - coming from Mexico, China, and other countries but that is not the case all the time. There are private groups that have tested so called organics, only to find them heavily contaminated with pesticides. There needs to be accountability. I hope that's the type of problem that Robert Kennedy can address. The drugs have been an issue - the problem is not just the drug gangs, but the addict that buys them. The new administration needs to look at providing help for the addict, make it as reasonable as possible for them to get help. Lets not forget our veterans or homeless. They really need our help.

JD Vance is total class and sets the future standard for USA politics. It is so vital USA go RED and show that the social narrative perpetuated in so many European countries is leading to long term decline .The recent approach in the UK is so socialist and has killed aspirations of so many ….
