Sunday Scaries: JD Vance Goes From Weird to Worse in Disastrous Trio of Interviews Arrow

In response to JD Vance's disastrous interviews this morning, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:

"JD Vance once again showed America that he is not ready for primetime - or even Sunday mornings. In Vance's trainwreck trio of interviews, he doubled down on his ties to his 'friend' running Project 2025, pushed the Trump-Vance ticket's anti-choice extremism, defended his weird insults of millions of Americans, and even tried to provide cover for Donald Trump dining with a white supremacist. Vance was already the most unpopular VP pick in decades, and he did himself no favors today by doubling down on an extreme, out-of-touch MAGA agenda that is a proven loser at the ballot box."

Here are some of JD Vance's lowlights from this morning:

On CNN:

• Called Project 2025 chief architect Kevin Roberts "a friend of mine"
• Did not say if he and Trump would protect access to medication abortion, echoing Project 2025's plan to ban abortion nationwide without Congress
• Lied about how Trump's anti-choice agenda is preventing women with nonviable pregnancies like Kate Cox from accessing medical care
• Said he agreed with Trump's call to end the independence of the Federal Reserve
• Said Trump is not attacking Vice President Harris' racial identity and refused to acknowledge that the vice president is Black

On ABC:

• Said he never compared abortion to slavery (he did)
• Bragged about campaigning against Ohio's referendum to protect access to abortion
• Encouraged Trump to oppose Florida's upcoming ballot measure to guarantee abortion access
• Defended Trump's infamous dinner with white nationalist and antisemite Nick Fuentes
• Tried and failed to explain why he wants Americans without children to have less voting rights
• Echoed Project 2025 by vowing to help Trump carry out cruel and reckless mass deportations
• Said Trump is confident in his abilities after Trump refused to answer if Vance would be ready to lead on day one

On CBS:

• Did not rule out enacting Project 2025's plan to use the Comstock Act to ban medication abortion nationwide (Vance has pushed the DOJ to do just that)
• Said he and Trump would allow states to ban medication abortion
• Said "there's nothing wrong with" Trump's never-ending praise for our adversaries and dictators like Putin
• Again tried to downplay Trump's dinner with Fuentes
• Pretended to support legislation to help children and families despite recently skipping a Senate vote on expanding the child tax credit
