JD Vance: Democrats Calling Me ‘Weird’ Is ‘A Lot Of Projection’ By Them

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), former President Donald Trump’s vice presidential running mate, said during an interview over the weekend that attempts by the Democratic Party to label him as “weird” amounted to projection by the political Left.

Vance made the remarks during a pre-taped interview that aired Sunday on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” with host Maria Bartiromo.

“What do you say about this new strategy to call you weird from the Democrats?” Bartiromo asked.

“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,” Vance responded. “Look, I’m a husband, I’m a father, I’m happily married, and I love my life, and I am 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,” he continued. “What offends me is what Kamala Harris has done to this country over three and a half years. She’s opened up the American southern border, she cast the deciding vote on things that caused skyrocketing inflation and the affordability crisis. 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 welcomed in millions of illegal aliens to compete with Americans for scarce homes. I just wish they would stop screwing opportunity 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.”
