In reply to the discussion: JD Vance in tears after Speaking to only Twelve Supporters in Kenosha, Wisconsin [View all]WhiskeyGrinder
(24,250 posts)32. Here's an actual article from an actual news gathering organization in the same state as Kenosha:

Funny enough, there's a Reddit post that comes up with the number 12 when describing the crowd. But it's obviously tongue-in-cheek.

Vance did claim he cried when his wife introduced him at the RNC, and that's clearly where the photo is from.
At Tuesdays event, Vance spoke for about 25 minutes to a crowd of 100 supporters.
His remarks primarily highlighted Trumps support of police and attacked Democratic leadership on crime during protests in the summer of 2020. He also reiterated campaign promises to end sanctuary cities and deport illegal immigrants.

OP
Just Dumb Vance well deserves all the venomous animosity which comes his way!

Exactly. Because Kamala wincing at the wrong time would be the end of her political career.

Do you think that if Vance cried in Kenosha, the only story reporting it would be some clickbait spin site?

Could have just as easily spun it as JD cries because nobody shows up to see him.

It violates the rules maybe, but your intent is clear, and I needed to see this. :)
