J.D. Vances Threat To Anti-Trumpers Receives The Mother Of All Reminders

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) boasted on X (formerly Twitter) about having a long memory as he warned colleagues against attacking Donald Trump .

But Vances post immediately went viral for all the wrong reasons, seeing as it conveniently ignored his own past trashing of the former president.

If youre fighting Trump and his endorsed candidates politically today, dont ask my help in a year with your legislation or your pet projects, the Hillbilly Elegy author warned.

A reader-added community note was soon added to the post.

Vance has publicly called Trump an idiot, reprehensible and noxious, it recalled. In Facebook messages, Vance wrote I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon who wouldnt be that bad or that hes Americas Hitler.

Indeed, Vance was a fierce critic of Trump ahead of the 2016 election.

He called himself a Never Trump guy who will never vote for Trump.

Trumps policies, meanwhile, ranged from immoral to absurd, he added at the time.

Vance later went full MAGA with his 2022 run for Senate, though.

Trump rewarded him with an endorsement.
