Vice President Vance on Wednesday blamed the ongoing Iran war for the Republican Party’s abysmal results in the midterm elections, brushing off other issues that appeared to tank GOP candidates, including the Trump administration’s harsh immigration policies.
“The reason we lost is the war. The president himself said so last night,” Vance said in a lengthy social media post.
“If you’d like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next 6 years was worth it, then do so. Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that’s at least honest,” he continued.
“But everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.”
Well, yes, but there are a fuckload of other reasons too
It is kind of a big deal that Vance said this publicly and on purpose. Donald can’t be happy.
It’s not going to amount to anything, because remember, both parties voted to fund the war… but it’s culturally at least kind of a big deal. And that funding came through AFTER we found out the DoW was spending millions a month on steak and lobster.
He was recently snubbed by Trump who refused to endorse him again, despite years of selling his soul to curry favour with the man. There’s not much love lost between them, it’s a purely transactional relationship

Trump loves war. He turns everything and anything into a war.
It was definitely the war: each and every one of them.
He added that the war will end “whenever I want it to, but it’s gotta be done right.”
pitiful dickhead
