Vance Bombs at Brutal Town Hall
Keeps playing with the screen off. The episode is played from Pod Save Americaβs own podcast host.
Vice President JD Vance tries and fails to act normal during a CBS town hall in Michigan β but struggles even harder to explain away his boss’s policies. Donald Trump sells out Ukraine to Vladimir Putin, a complex scandal involving two Trump advisors engulfs the White House, new details emerge about the firing of Katie Zacharia, and Republicans try to make an issue out of the riots in France.Β
Jon, Lovett, and Tommy react to all the latest, including new lines of attack in the Senate races in Michigan and Maine, and Trump telling his followers not watch Fox News anymore. Then, Mayor Paige Cognetti talks to Jon about fighting corruption in Pennsylvania and flipping a critical House seat blue.
