Summary
Vice President JD Vance is likely not too high on Trump’s list right now. He was sent to Hungary to give Victor Orban a pre-election day boost. It didn’t work and Orban lost. He was sent to hammer out a deal with Iran as Pakistan facilitated talks…that also failed. No deal and no dice. Sadly for Vance, his boss isn’t too understanding. On Easter, Trump was asked about a deal with Iran and joked,”If it doesn’t happen, I’m blaming JD Vance, If it does happen, I’m taking full credit.” We know Trump’s jokes come with a jumbo sized side of truth. That has to have Vance feeling uneasy. Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston will swing by the show to talk about this and more.
