Vance blasts Kamala harris for questioning his loyalty to America: 'I went to Iraq for this country'
Running mate to former President Donald Trump, JD Vance (R-OH), went on the offense at a rally in Minnesota Saturday when Vice President Kamala Harris questioned his loyalty to his country.
Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance called out Democratic heir apparent Kamala Harris at a campaign rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota on Saturday.
Harris said in a 45-second YouTube video posted on July 16 that Vance would be "loyal only to Trump, not to our country" and a "rubber stamp for [Trump's] extreme agenda."

Vance countered the Vice President's attack on his character at Saturday's joint Trump and Vance rally with his track record of Marine Corps service and small business ownership as well as Harris' failures in tackling the border crisis.
"Now, I saw the other day Kamala Harris questioned my loyalty to this country. That's the word she used; loyalty. And it's an interesting word. Semper Fi: loyalty, because there is no greater sign of disloyalty to this country than what Kamala Harris has done at our southern border," said Vance.

The senator from Ohio didn't stop with Harris' record as border czar under President Joe Biden's administration.
"And I'd like to ask the vice president, what has she done to question my loyalty to this country? I served in the United States Marine Corps. I went to Iraq for this country. I built a business for this country."

Vance added, "and my running mate took a bullet for this country. So my question to Kamala Harris is, what the hell have you done to question our loyalty to the United States of America?"
After the crowd roared with applause, Vance answered his own question.

"And the answer, my friends, is nothing. So let's send a message to the media. Let's send a message to Kamala Harris. Let's send a message to every hardworking patriot from Minnesota across the country. We are ready to have President Donald J. Trump back, and we're going to work our tails off to make sure it happens," he concluded.
A Fox News poll released Friday shows former President Trump with 46% support in Minnesota, and Vice President Harris with 52%.

The gall and arrogance of liberals like Harris never ceases to amaze me.
They have no shame.
Nope, it’s power at all costs. Democrat “democracy” at work.
So Vance thinks Harris is a DEI hire but is upset when something is thrown back at him. Too funny, time to grow up JR.
Biden didn’t mean it as an insult and Vance did that is the difference.
I see... so someone from her party, that chose her for that reason, is alright saying so? But someone from the opposition that served his country, shouldn't because it's an insult?
Now you're getting it. Congrats. Vanc meant it as an insult, that is what conservatives do, you should know that you see it on NT daily.
I certainly am....
Right, liberals would never do that....
No doubt...
She is a DEI hire.
Nothing should ever factor into a decision except the person being the most qualified individual to fill the position.
Harris is a failed Senator, VP, and border Czar. Her 2020 campaign didn't even make it to Iowa.
Biden flat out out stated he was going to chose a black woman for his VP. Rather significantly narrows the talent pool.
Democrats have no room to question anyone's loyalty to the country after the shit they have put it through over the last eight years and counting.
