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.”

Senator Cotton Highlights Kamala Harris’ Weak Foreign Policy: ‘Naïve,’ ‘Not Prepared To Be’ President

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) slammed Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris over the weekend for her position on the Islamic Republic of Iran, the world’s state sponsor of terrorism.

Cotton made the remarks during a Sunday interview on Fox News while talking about how her policy toward Israel since the October 7 massacre is “an example of how she’s unprepared to be the commander in chief.”

“She immediately took at face value Hamas’ claims about the number of people killed and what they were doing,” Cotton said, noting how she believed information released by the Hamas terrorists who control Gaza’s health ministry.

“Israel has to strike on occasion at places like hospitals and schools because Hamas uses them for command and control or to fire mortars and rockets,” Cotton said. “There are civilian casualties in Gaza, no doubt, but those are solely the responsibility of Hamas, not Israel. Kamala Harris, like Joe Biden, though, have put more pressure on Israel than they put on Hamas from the very beginning.”

Cotton also noted that Harris has sided with anti-Semites in the Democrat Party who boycotted Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last month when he addressed U.S. lawmakers.

“She refused to preside over the joint session, her only constitutional duty as president of the Senate, she refused to have a meeting in public with him, and she came out and again blamed Israel for the civilian casualties in Gaza, only emboldening Iran and Iranian-backed terrorists,” Cotton said. “And what did you have two days later? Hezbollah, another Iranian-backed terrorist group, shot in rockets to Israel and blew up children playing ball at a playground.

“Kamala Harris is naïve, and she’s not prepared to be the commander in chief,” he said.

Cotton also slammed Harris for falsely “implying that Israel is responsible for all the civilian suffering in Gaza, not Hamas, that Israel is the one being provocative when it’s waging a defensive war after the October 7 atrocity and that Israel is the one that should pull in its horns, as opposed to supporting Israel and standing strong against Iran and Iranian-backed terrorist throughout the region.”

Since October 7, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have put more pressure on Israel than they have on Hamas.
