It was 8 years ago. But I don’t care if it was 4 years ago, 8 years ago, or 28 years ago. Comparing DJT to HITLER is a non-starter. That is a bridge too far to come back from.
It was 8 years ago. Trump had just been a liberal turned conservative at that time. And Trump has used far more incendiary and inflammatory words than what Vance said. Mean Tweets, anybody.
Bottom line - if you are gonna close your mind on Vance for who he was - just go all the way and hate Trump also.
It was a joke said in private, and not a real comparison. You’re just like weak RINOs with locker room talk and Biden with his hoaxes. No time for you cowards.
