Vance Swings At Kamala: She’s ‘Done As Many Tough Interviews As Tim Walz Has Battlefield Deployments’

 Senator JD Vance (R-OH) took a swing at Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday — after he spent the morning taking questions from multiple adversarial media outlets — and managed to hit her newly-announced running mate Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) in the process.

Vance called Harris out over the fact that she had risen to the top of the Democratic Party’s 2024 ticket three weeks earlier — without getting a single primary vote of her own accord — and had yet to take a single interview or difficult question in an unscripted setting.

In the process, the Ohio senator — who is also the Republican vice presidential nominee on former President Donald Trump’s ticket — also jabbed at Harris’ recently-announced running mate, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN).

A 24-year veteran of the Army National Guard, Walz has been accused on a number of occasions of retiring to duck a combat tour and embellishing his service to make it appear as though he served in combat although he never did. Vance, a Marine Corps veteran who served in Iraq, referenced that controversy as well.

“I enjoyed sitting down with three of the major networks today to answer the tough questions any leader should answer,” Vance said in a post on X. “Kamala Harris has done as many tough interviews as Tim Walz has battlefield deployments.”

During his Sunday media tour, Vance took adversarial questions from CNN anchor Dana Bash regarding Walz and his time in the National Guard — and Vance made it clear several times that he was not criticizing Walz’s service but rather his willingness to mischaracterize it for political gain.

He went on to say that in choosing Walz to be her running mate, Harris had opened the door for criticisms of her judgment: “Why did Kamala Harris choose a person who has lied about their military service? I think that is a serious lapse in judgment, and I don’t want to hear from a campaign spokesperson, I want to hear Kamala Harris herself address what I just said.”
