J.D. Vance: Trump Trial Is About Biden’s ‘Failed Record as Commander-in-Chief

Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Donald Trump was on trial in New York because President Joe Biden “has a failed record as commander-in-chief.”

Vance said, “Donald Trump is not on trial for sexual indiscretions. This is a sham trial where they’re saying his misdeeds is violated the law that he committed a crime you can’t throw somebody in prison in the middle of a presidential election because you think that he did something bad ten years ago. So I think we have to separate these arguments from the actual criminal trial, that’s attempting to in my view, Dana interfere in a presidential election.”

He added, “The only thing that Alvin Bragg and the New York prosecutors team, thinks Donald Trump did wrong is that he ran for president in 2024, and it looks to be on the cusp of victory. That is the only thing that this is ultimately about. If you look at the underlying argument of the case, they can’t even identify what it is that Donald Trump did. They said he committed a paperwork violation in the service of a crime, but they won’t even specify the crime that he allegedly committed.”

“And I think that when you look at all of these attacks on Donald Trump, you have to, you have to be honest with yourself and say, this is not about law and this is not about justice, this is about the fact that president Joe Biden has a failed record as commander-in-chief and leader in this country and the Democrats can’t talk about that,” Vance added. ‘So what they’re doing is putting these trials out there and saying focus on this, not on the fact that the world is on fire, and the fact that you have gotten poor under the presidency of Joe Biden.”

Vance: We Have to Let Israel Finish the Job and End Hamas

Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the United States should allow Israel to finish the job of ending Hamas.

Vance said, “I think there are two big problems with the Biden administration is doing. First of all, it’s a fundamentally incoherent policy on the one hand, they’re saying too many Palestinian civilians have been killed with the other hand, there are depriving is the Israelis of the precision guided weapons that actually cut down on civilian casualties. So if you’re worried about Palestinian casualties, these stated policy here actually doesn’t make a ton of sense.”

He continued, “The fundamental problem here, is the Israelis have a goal in mind. Hamas started a war by murdering a large number of israeli civilians. and now that they’re 80% defeated, they’re throwing up their hands and saying, uncle. Now, yeah, palestinian civilian casualties is a real issue and our heart certainly goes out to them. we have to ask ourselves, why are palestinian civilian casualties so high? It’s because Hamas started the war and now they hide behind Palestinian civilians. so if you want to learn the lessons, i think of the last 40 years, the most important thing is we have to defeat Hamas as a viable a military organization. You’re never going to defeat the ideology of Hamas, but you can root out those commanders, those final military trained battalions. I think we should empower the Israelis to do it.”

Vance added, “Our goal in the Middle East should be to allow the Israelis to get to some good place with Saudi Arabians and other Gulf Arab states. There is no way that we can do that unless the Israelis finished the job with Hamas. If they can’t even do that, the attitude of the Middle East will be, you can’t trust these guys. They’re not pursuing their own national security. So we’ve got to let them finish this job, but I think hopefully on the other end of it, get two new era in the Middle East.”

Most people do not care about the Democrats Political trials of President Trump. The trials are political and unfair. People care about the economy and the country being secure.
