But as a VP candidate, he should know how to avoid this confusion. And he took the opportunity to justify the damage rather than own up to his part in the misinformation. I frankly agree with you on his exact intent of those words, but he's still unforgivable.
He didn’t justify the damage, he clarified what he meant. The “damage” lasted all of like 60 seconds before he clarified, and all of the “damage” since then has been caused by what I described above, which is a combination of people knowingly lying about what he said, and others gullibly passing along those lies because they match their desired narrative.
Now that you know, are you going to stop repeating the idea that “JD Vance thinks it’s okay to lie to drum up fear”?
Did you miss the bomb threats that were called in because of the lie he spread?
How long until people are killed because of the lies he spreads?
Why are you ok with that?
Look at you like a good little anti-american magat, defending stostachic terrorism.
