Vice President JD Vance shared some serious accusations about a protester during a rally in North Carolina this week.
At the rally in Hendersonville, a young man stood up waving the flag of North Carolina and began shouting ‘Release the Epstein files’ and ‘God bless our children’.
He was quickly ushered out, shouting as he was escorted away, while the crowd began to chant ‘USA’.
Vance turned back to the crowd and said: ‘I said that we have had zero illegal border crossings in the United States.
Then, referencing the protester, he said: ‘But one isn’t bad, right?’
Vance went on to say the protester showed what ‘far left Democrats’ stand for: ‘fraudsters, criminals and illegal aliens’.
Ahead of key midterm elections, Vance and Donald Trump have been travelling across the US to endorse Republican candidates and rally support as gas prices skyrocket and Americans struggle to make ends meet.
The rallies have also provided some awkward moments – including when Trump gave a bizarre imitation of Iranian leadership during a rally in Tennessee while praising Allah.
The US President, speaking about the Iran War, said that Iranian leadership is ‘freaking crazy’.
He added: ‘They speak like, “We will kill, we will kill everyone.” They don’t talk that way anymore, by the way.
‘”We will kill everyone,” then behind him, you’ve got like 20 guys being like “Praise be to Allah.” And I say to them, I say, guys, you guys are crazy.’
As Trump’s remarks become more and more erratic, his own niece has claimed her uncle was in a ‘downward health spiral’.
Referencing his recent erratic behaviour, late-night posting sprees and the flailing Iran peace deal, Mary added: ‘He may still have moments when he appears more coherent, but psychologically he’s in a downward spiral.
‘He’s experiencing constant narcissistic injuries, and nothing terrifies Donald more than humiliation.’
White House spokesperson Steven Cheung disputed Mary’s account of her uncle’s health, calling her a ‘stone-cold loser who doesn’t have a clue about anything’.
