A conservative explaining why Trump and Vance’s lies are indefensible.
He’s still supporting Trump and Vance, so I guess this is a tacit admission that explicitly provoking racist violence directed at the constituents he “serves” isn’t a dealbreaker for him.
The Biden administration’s failure to control the southern border is a very important issue that Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance are talking about and one that the American people are rightfully deeply concerned about.
I see he’s fine with lies as long as they don’t effect himself. That paragraph was unnecessary and made me lose the positive feeling about his statement.
What is his incentive for writing this if he supports Trump?
To try and get him to tone down the rhetoric, I guess? Or to reassure his own swing voters?
not sure that makes sense
I agree, just trying to find some logic in there!
Has anyone got a non-paywalled link for this?
Thank you kind internet stranger.

That seems to be a shared talking point, to steer any discussion about what Trump and Vance are doubling and tripling down on over to “but the border problem…” Vance even stated at one point that he knows the people in Springfield are legally here but he’ll continue to call them illegals.
