00:00:06.260another beautiful day in america thanks so much for being with us we're live tonight for the
00:00:10.300great america show so as always let us know where you're tuned in from uh in the comment or the
00:00:15.700whatever you call it chat section uh let us know um if you're enjoying the show all that good stuff
00:00:21.500and let's get right into it heck of a day it was for vice president uh jd vance finding his way
00:00:28.960into the Devil's Den over on The View with those lovely, delightful, peachy, happy.
00:00:38.380What other adjective could we use to describe those great, great folks over there on The View?
00:00:46.060Boy, did J.D. Vance take them to task.
00:00:50.080And I think J.D. Vance today, and we're going to go into it in great depth,
00:00:53.180But I think J.D. Vance today showed just why he's positioned himself, and I've been weary of it, and I've said to keep our options open and figure out when the time comes.
00:01:04.780But I think J.D. Vance going into the devil's den today, showing what he's capable of and the unity he's capable of in this country shows just why I think he's positioned himself as of right now to be the best chance for the Republicans to move forward when Donald Trump eventually does leave office.
00:01:27.460So I want to start. We're going to take a live view of what J.D. was dealing with today with some of the folks over there at the.
00:01:44.820Whoops, that wasn't the video. That was what that's exactly what it sounded like today as J.D. had to go through the line of questioning.
00:01:54.220And I got to say, they weren't as bad. They weren't as nasty as I expected them to be.
00:01:58.220But nonetheless, they were who they usually are, just a little bit nicer than usual, I guess.
00:02:05.460But J.D. was asked a plethora of questions, and he didn't shy from any of them.
00:02:09.760Took every question at task, listened to them, and answered them very strategically.
00:02:14.920And he was asked an array of things from Jeffrey Epstein to his cat lady, single cat lady comments that he had made back in the campaign, asked about welcoming people into the party.0.60
00:02:29.140And Whoopi, of course, did her little race baiting, I guess, is the easy way to do it.
00:02:37.600So before we get into Whoopi and all of her missteps, one of the things that J.D. was asked about the list of Trump issues and what they're dealing with, the inflation, the issue, everything that's going on right now.
00:02:52.060And I thought whether we've done a good job or not, and that's how they're going to vote.
00:02:55.780OK, so President Trump has called affordability a hoax.
00:03:02.560He's pouring money into this ballroom of his and the reflecting pool.
00:03:06.600Oh, don't forget the arch to Trump pay. I call it. And a White House cage, a White House cage match.
00:03:13.640All these things. Why is he doing them when you you just everybody knows that Americans are struggling?
00:03:19.820What is he spending all this money for? Real quick, before we get to J.D.'s response, I don't mean to cut it off,
00:03:25.120but I think it's important that she's reading off a note card and nowhere does she note that everything she had just listed
00:03:33.200It was either paid for by Dana White and the UFC or by donations from private companies.
00:03:40.760The ballroom, which was originally taken place to be paid for until they turned it into a national security dome, which we don't know is being built underneath it for national security.
00:03:52.320But the brunt of the ballroom being paid for by Fortune 500 and large corporations as a donation to America.0.98
00:03:59.440But, of course, she was too dumb to know that.0.98
00:04:01.400Well, I got to defend the president on the hoax point.0.99
00:04:04.100What the president said is the idea that Republicans cause the affordability problem is a hoax.0.51
00:08:12.340And I thought it was nice that J.D. sat there and took them to a little bit of reality, took them down a path of what he and President Trump are doing.
00:08:29.040And you know what? He didn't sit there and defend the issues that the administration has had thus far.
00:08:36.480He said things are not as cheap as they should be. This is not where it should be.
00:08:41.520And I think that's really important as a leader, because time and time again, we have issues in this country.
00:08:49.980And I'd say at 90% of them, these politicians don't take accountability.
00:09:00.480I can't think of a time where I've heard a politician say, I'm sorry, you were right.
00:14:18.040So this, I think, is him building his case.
00:14:21.740But nonetheless, J.D. was asked about his comments of President Trump in the past and what brought him back to President Trump, what brought him to supporting President Trump.
00:14:35.460And I thought it was beautiful and articulate.
00:14:38.560First of all, it's been well covered that I was a critic of Donald Trump back in 2015 and 2016.
00:14:44.280Now, obviously, I'm sitting here as the Vice President of the United States in the Trump
00:26:51.660But not all these people being deported are actually criminals is what they want to tell us a criminal record0.98
00:26:56.840They had a sex a sex trash conviction have criminal records so the majority of people that ice is rounding up and taking0.81
00:27:03.640Taking out of their homes from their families. They're separating families. There's they're using children as bait0.98
00:27:10.240But let me majority are not criminals. Can I respond to that guys? Let me just say this. Okay
00:27:14.100So you talk about the children. Here's what I'd say. Do we know that during the last administration?
00:27:21.080We had tens of thousands of children who were sex trafficked by the cartels, who were brought into our country in profoundly dangerous and predatory conditions.
00:27:33.960Unless you enforce the border, you invite that kind of conduct.
00:27:37.660You think that our immigration policies are inhumane based on the reporting of one person with a political bias.
00:27:44.000What I'm telling you is that it's inhumane to allow cartels to sex traffic people across our border.
00:27:49.940And by the way, please hold on. I appreciate that. I'm going to get you back. We're coming. We're coming back with more with the vice president.
00:28:00.000So now that all of a sudden they're immigration experts. They're geniuses. Whoopi Goldberg, I also didn't know, was a professional on black history. And apparently it's the first I'm hearing it.
00:28:15.220Donald Trump is destroying black history.0.92
00:28:41.820So when you see, you know, things, the Emmett Till stuff coming down or them doing all kinds of removal of information of black heroes, how do you, how do you, how does that sit with you?
00:28:59.600Well, what do you, what exactly are you talking about, Whoopi?
00:29:02.380Because you just, I know Emmett Till was, I can tell you all the stuff.
00:29:06.140No, no, I want to know what she's, I want to respond to your actual report.
00:29:09.600So in a lot of the museums, there's so many, I just, you know, where they're taking down
00:29:20.120the actual history that happened in this country.
