Since former President Donald Trump chose Sen. JD Vance as his 2024 running mate, Democrats have been labeling the Ohio Republican as “weird.” Now, Vance has responded on national television. During an appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures” on Fox News Channel, anchor Maria Bartiromo directly addressed Vance about the “weird” label.
“What do you say about this new strategy to call you ‘weird’ from the Democrats?” Bartiromo pressed. Vance responded: “I think that it’s a lot of projection, frankly, Maria, from people who want to give transgender hormones to 9-year-old kids and want biological males to play in women’s sports. Look, I’m a husband, I’m a father, I’m happily married, and I love my life, and I’m doing this because I want to be a good public servant who fixes the problems of the Democrats.
“They can call me whatever they want to. The middle-school taunts don’t bother me. What bothers me and what offends me is what Kamala Harris has done to this country over three-and-a-half years,” he continued. “She’s opened up the American southern border, she cast the deciding vote on things that caused skyrocketing inflation and the affordability crisis.”

He continued: “I was in Georgia yesterday. They have a terrible housing-affordability problem in the state of Georgia because Kamala Harris shot interest rates through the roof, and then she welcomed in millions of illegal aliens to compete with Americans for scarce homes. I don’t care what they call me. I just wish they would stop screwing opportunity in the country, and because I don’t think they’re able to do that themselves, President Trump and I are going to beat them in November.”
That led the host to point out how Harris has flip-flopped on several key issues, something the ‘mainstream’ media has yet to question her about. “Today Kamala Harris, her aides are pushing out this messaging saying, no, no, she’s not against fracking,” said Bartiromo. “So which is it? She said she is against fracking. She told CNN there’s no question I’m going to ban fracking, but recently, her aides have said that’s not the case.”
Vance explained: “Well, she said she wanted to ban fracking and also ban offshore drilling, Maria. Of course, Kamala Harris hasn’t answered a media question in 14 days, since becoming the presumptive nominee of the Democrat Party, which, by the way, is a scandal all its own.
“If you want to lead this country, you should have to stand before the press, the free press, and answer questions, sometimes hostile questions, as President Trump and I have,” he continued. “We know the source of their environmental policies, the source of their energy policies is this crazy idea that if we ship more and more manufacturing and more and more energy production to China, that’s somehow going to be good for the environment and good for the American consumer. It doesn’t make an ounce of sense, Maria.
“If you do more in China, China is the dirtiest economy in the entire world. If you do more in America, you help the environment. You also lower the cost of goods for American citizens. It is a win-win to manufacture and drill more in the United States of America,” the Ohio senator added. “Kamala Harris’ policies don’t make environmental sense, they don’t make basic economic sense, but she has been on the record defending them for years, again, because she is a radical. This is who she is. And as a much as her aides are running from her record, Kamala Harris at the least should stand before the American people and answer some tough questions.”
