The answer is on the mark. It's the question that reminds me that Chris Cuomo is still trying to figure out which perspective benefits his career the most.

I don't recall that Dan Quayle struggled as much in 1988 as JD Vance is struggling now. He had a bad moment at the debate that year, but that was Lloyd Bentsen's doing. Vance is just making it up as he goes along, and he basically admitted that.

Try again, JD. Name names. Both gunmen voted for your guy. Both didn't care for Biden. Your rhetoric is as inflammatory and violent as it is baseless. But, as you've admitted, you make things up to get attention.

Well, at least it's not immigrants.

Another endless line at Seattle-Tacoma Intl. Airport's car rental facility. Have waited 30 minutes, with at least another 90 to go. This time Budget Car Rental. Hope my reserved car is there.

If you like angry stupid white men. you'll love JD Vance and his ranting uncle from New York. Nasty Boys.
