ā€œJD Vance is one of those guys who thinks if you donā€™t live the life that he has in mind for you, then you donā€™t count,ā€ the transportation secretary said.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg compared Donald Trumpā€™s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, with Trumpā€™s former vice president, Mike Pence, during his speech Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

After criticizing Trump, Buttigieg pivoted his attention to the former presidentā€™s running mate.

ā€œAnd donā€™t even get me started on [Trumpā€™s] new running mate. At least Mike Pence was polite. JD Vance is one of those guys who thinks if you donā€™t live the life that he has in mind for you, then you donā€™t count,ā€ Buttigieg, a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020, said asĀ he made comparisonsĀ between the two.Ā ā€œSomeone who said that if you donā€™t have kids, you have ā€™no physical commitment to the future of this country.ā€

    Always a blast with US politicians, while the duopoly happily funds more forever wars and genocides.

    Democratic National Convention Pete Buttigieg Compares JD Vance With Mike Pence: At Least ā€˜Pence Was Politeā€™

    In response to the criticism, the Ohio senator insisted that he was being sarcastic and has ā€œnothing against cats,ā€ but he then urged people to ā€œpray for those peopleā€ who did not birth children. The vice presidential nominee has made other offensive comments about childless people, such as saying that not having children ā€œmakes people more sociopathic.ā€

      I bet it grinds your gears that the same tired BS is not sticking. Your Russian handlers canā€™t come up with any decent material so you just frantically type away, afraid that if you stop, youā€™ll be planting šŸŒ»šŸŒ»šŸŒ» soon.
