Vice President J.D. Vance just roasted ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on live TV.
After Vance stopped speaking, the ABC host cut to commercial instead of responding to Vance’s criticism against the fake news media.
“I don’t know what tape you’re referring to, George. I saw media reports that Tom Homan accepted a bribe. There’s no evidence of that. And here’s, George, why fewer and fewer people watch your program, and you’re losing credibility. Because you’re talking for now five minutes with the vice president of the United States about this story about Tom Homan, a story that I’ve read about, but I don’t even know the video that you’re talking about.”
"Meanwhile, low-income women can’t get food because the Democrats and Chuck Schumer have shut down the government. Right now, we’re trying to figure out how to pay our troops, because Chuck Schumer has shut down the government. You are focused on a bogus story. You’re insinuating criminal wrongdoing against a guy who has done nothing wrong, instead of focusing on the fact that our country is struggling because our government is shut down. Let’s talk about the real issues, George, I think the American people would benefit much more from that than fom you going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole where the facts show that Tom Homan clearly didn’t engage in any criminal wrongdoing.”
The ABC host cut to commercial instead of responding to Vance’s criticism against the fake news media or his interview priorities.
Vance continued roasting Stephanopoulos on social media for using scarce interview time to ask about a year-old story instead of a possible peace deal in the Middle East, China threatening supply chains, or how vulnerable people who depend on the government will eat.

“...our country is struggling because our government is shut down.”
Not a strong argument. The country does NOT depend on the damned government. The less we depend on the government, the better.
The very last thing I want to hear from MAGA is that our country “struggles” because of lack of government. I understand why he said it, but it makes me sick.
For cutting off like that, shut them down. Close their doors. Wd have tolerated this long enough. No more.
If George speaks he will end up lying. ABC already lost a lawsuit because George lied.
ABC has clearly told George not to speak in these circumstances and George wants to remain employed.
I wonder how long ABC can stay afloat without USAID money?
Steph-O is, well, not very good.
At anything.
That’s why he’s a DemocRAT shill...where else is professional lying using no facts desired?
Ouch. That sounds like it touched a nerve with George. JD talking about how his ratings are going down because of how they cover stories, and deciding what stories to cover and which ones to ignore.
And lest we forget: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKQhkh8xhE0
On the stories from the “news” people they say George had to cut Vance off because he was lying and that would not be tolerated. The democrats, like Mini George, are desperate to find a scandal they can talk about 24/7 to avoid talking about reality.

There.
“If George speaks he will end up lying.”
Tom Homan taking a bribe? Make the next lawsuit against Stephy something like $100,000,000, that’ll hurt.
Steponallofus is an idiot. He’s not as smart as he thinks he is. No liberals are.
“deciding what stories to cover and which ones to ignore.”
-
One of the most nefarious tactics the liberal media uses is to black out stories and withhold accurate information from the general public.
These cowards hide behind the 1st amendment and then deliberately fail to exercise it when it’s to the lefts advantage.
Has Stephanopoulos heard that tape, or is he operating off the rumor that it exists?
Vance: It’s only common courtesy for you to stand up when we shake hands. This is rude of you.
George: I am standing.
The corrupt little weasle had to infer it one more time and then cut off the Vice President of the United States.
Agreed, but it was shrewd to highlight the leftist hypocrisy.
The reaction was, obviously, evidence of its effectiveness.
Boy, to be a fly on the wall in the producer’s perch at that moment. LOL
I see George Stephanopoulos as George Snuffleupagus except Snuffleupagus is brighter than Stephanopoulos
