GOP strategist follows J.D. Vance on CNN and trashes his 'disaster' interview as 'weak'
Moments after Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance concluded his widely-panned ("A wonderful disaster") interview on CNN on Friday morning, a GOP strategist appeared with host John Berman and joined the pile-on.
Vance's interview which found him returning to the cost of groceries no matter the question, ended with him defending Donald Trump for post posting vulgar and sexist memes on his Truth Social account as well as his reposting a video that once drove the teen subject appearing in it to contemplate taking her own life.
According to Donald Trump's running mate, it was all done in the spirit of "fun."

After Vance was off the air, he pressed Republican Party strategist Rina Shah, formerly the spokesperson for NextGenGOP, on how the GOP's VP candidate performed when asked about Vice President Kamala Harris' Thursday night CNN interview.
After praising the Harris interview as "concise," Shah told the host, "I made a couple of notes here listening Senator Vance. I found his response to her interview last night to be quite weak. And if I was advising him, which I'm not, would say it's bad of them to keep talking reproductive care and access, that's a losing issue for them."
"Look, women are not a monolith," she continued. "We care about the economy too and that's what I heard Kamala Harris talk about last night. She sounded more like a Republican to me in some ways, talking about tax credits for families, children, talking about tax credit for small businesses, talking manufacturing, talking about having a clean driving energy policy that does not ban fracking, basically making us independent of foreign sources for oil. I loved all that because that was what I heard from the Republican Party right before Donald Trump came in."
