The JD Vance conversation with Joe Rogan dropped yesterday afternoon and over the course of nearly three and a half hours we find out that JD is relatable, smart, very funny and definitely NOT weird!

The stories JD told about his kids were hysterical. It was multiple cases of…yep, that’s happened to us too! I mean, there are tons of parents who’ve dealt with that one time (or several in some cases) where their child dropped a cuss word at a completely inopportune moment.

JD Vance recounts the moment his son accidentally dropped a Biscoff cookie on a Delta flight and said, "Dad… well… f*ck" in front of passengers.

And yes, I’m one of them. I will never ever forget my then three-year-old standing in McDonald’s and loudly announcing …. “Mommy! LOOK! There’s a big red F**K!” Yeah, she hadn’t quite mastered T’s or R’s at that time. 

The conversation covered a huge range of topics. Abortion, the economy, Big Pharma, foreign policy, Covid, East Palestine, the dangers of the transgender craze, climate change, the attempt on President Trump’s life, and censorship. 

Sen. JD Vance said the right to free speech and thought is the biggest issue at stake this election, as the GOP vice presidential nominee blasted Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party for “silencing people who disagree with them” in a wide-ranging and candid sit-down with podcast king Joe Rogan.

Vance, 40, argued that the “biggest difference” between Trump, 78, and Harris, 60, is censorship.

“We’re not trying to censor our fellow Americans,” the Ohio senator explained during the freewheeling exchange on “The Joe Rogan Experience” released Thursday.

“We’ll attack Kamala on her policies or her ideas, but we’re not trying to say, ‘You should be silenced because you disagree with us,” he continued.

“That is anathema to everything that I believe in — and that is what’s happened in the modern Democratic Party, at least at the leadership level, is they’ve gotten really comfortable with the idea of silencing people who disagree with them.

As both JD and Joe discussed, it wasn’t the Republicans nor President Trump who shut down all mention of the Hunter Biden laptop for weeks prior to the 2020 election. Nope, that was the Democrats. 

But again, the conversation as a whole was just free-wheeling with lots of humor, but also some seriousness.

While some are already dunking on JD for this story, and getting correctly ratioed for it, there are a LOT of folks around the country who had the same thoughts and feelings as JD Vance on that July day, myself included. 

It’s also obvious that Vance has a grasp on what an Administration does or doesn’t do can affect American citizens. Including the choice to have unchecked illegal immigration without considering the effects upon the local economies, schools, and infrastructure. 

A very interesting point was touched upon in multiple ways throughout those three hours. Why can’t we ask questions? The Democrats are remarkably incurious about Kamala ascending as Presidential candidate without a primary. But when anyone else brings it up, the hammer comes down hard. When a comedian makes a clumsy joke about Puerto Rico and it’s very real trash problem the media pounds on that subject for DAYS. 

“The number of mentions on CNN about [Tony Hinchcliffe’s Puerto Rico] joke in the last 48 hours: 143, Vance said.

“On MSNBC: 101, on ABC: 53, on NBC: 32, and on CBS: 31,” he went on.

“Do you think that the word ‘garbage’ is going to appear on CNN 141 times over the next few days, I would bet no,” he added.

“Now what’s the difference? Well, one difference is it’s a comedian telling a joke, and it’s the president of the United States telling what he actually thinks.”

EXACTLY. Joe meant what he said and all the tap-dancing about apostrophe’s was just an effort to hide the truth. Yet it’s Republicans who what to kick the First Amendment to the curb? I don’t think so. 

There was some fun talk about Kamala’s word salads and the fact that she’s dangerously incurious about public policy, which is a major tool she’d need to have as President. This regarding Kamala and truth was both funny and spot on!

Kamala is indeed the Michael Jordan of word salad lying, and you can bet she will NOT like hearing about it.

JD Vance nails Kamala perfectly:

She's the Michael Jordan of using as many words as possible to say as little as possible… pic.twitter.com/zJYFAePBri

While this conversation with Joe Rogan won’t necessarily move the needle in a big way, it did accomplish four things.

One: It shows JD Vance is an ordinary guy with a great sense of humor and a boatload of smarts. 

Two: He’s very interested in multiple subjects and is willing to do the work to find out more. 

Three: He’s NOT WEIRD. Tim Walz on the other hand…

Even Kamala is like “bro, stop” at the end of this. pic.twitter.com/kbgCJCC3dP

Four: Kamala Harris is unequivocally incapable of having a similar conversation without her brain breaking. 

Kamala: “Understand the difference here moving forward. Moving forward, understand the difference here. What we are looking at is a difference in this election. Let's move forward and see where we are.”
