J.D. Vance: Ohio’s new servile, self-seeking sycophant of a U.S. Senator
Raw StoryAfter two years of relentless lies from Donald Trump about the 2020 Election — lies that precipitated a deadly assault on the U.S. Capitol to try to overturn a free and fair American election — Ohio’s newly elected U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance’s op-ed in The American Conservative, “Don’t Blame Trump,” gives Ohioans a taste of the shameless, self-debasing sycophancy Vance is willing to indulge as he prostrates himself before Trump in abject servitude. This was Vance’s first major political statement after winning election to the U.S. Senate last Tuesday: licking the boots of a wannabe authoritarian who set about trying to destroy the machinery of America’s elections systems by installing groveling toadies in positions of electoral authority in swing states, and failing miserably. If you ignore all of your faculties of intelligence, good judgment, and common sense, Vance’s argument that it’s actually the small-donor game that swung the 2022 elections, and not the reality TV show star attempting to destroy American democracy for his own myopic self-interest, might make sense.
