... until it backfired.
Senator JD Vance has made yet another joke that backfired.
Vance was speaking in Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday morning when a reporter asked how he is preparing to debate Governor Tim Walz on October 1.
“Well, I found a good friend from back home who embellishes and lies a lot, I’m having him stand in for Tim Walz,” Vance responded.
But the insult quickly backfired as several social media users joked Vance was referencing Donald Trump, who has become notorious for lying over everything from election results and crowd sizes to the weather. The Washington Post estimated that during his presidency he made more than 30,000 false or misleading statements.
“Nice of Trump to help Vance with debate prep,” author and Jeopardy! Champion Hemant Mehta wrote.
The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump Republican organization, posted a photo of the former president with the caption, “The friend.”
