Summary

Nate Vance, a former U.S. Marine and cousin of JD Vance, criticized the Trump administration’s treatment of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

After volunteering to fight for Ukraine in 2022, he condemned his cousin and Trump for “ambushing” Zelensky and pausing military aid.

He expressed disappointment that JD Vance never sought his perspective on the war.

The administration’s stance has sparked concerns over its alignment with Russia.

      Will we ever see the breaking point of conservatives’ support for Trump? Trump can kick them in the balls and thank him if he says “MAGA”.

        Trump can kick them in the balls and they’ll straight face blame Biden.

          “It’s because of Biden that your testes hurt now, I didn’t want to kick them. There should have been ball kicking from the beginning, you know it’s a very, really very important thing for our nation’s egg prices and wellbeing, and you know the liberal dictators and DEI enforcers, they said ‘Why—’ yes, I know, really, they said it, ‘Why should we have to kick people in the gonads? Why don’t we just give transgendered abortions to everyone who needs a ball kicking, on the taxpayer dollar,’ and honest to God this is what they told me, honest to God. Can you believe it? They thought they would get away with it, it’s unbelievable, it destroyed America, the lack of ball kicking, really, look it up, it’s all there. So yes, maybe, it’s going to hurt for a while, maybe a few weeks or years—it depends on, well, there’s a lot of very good, very good reasons that really smart people have known for a while, but the Biden DEI squad didn’t want to talk about it. And there will probably be other kinds of pain to come, maybe some worse than ball kicking, some small pains here and there, and you might be thinking ‘How did it ever get this bad?’ But it’s all Biden, you can check the DOGE numbers if you don’t believe me, and he brainwashed all of America, it’s a disaster. But now we have a good ball kicking plan, the best plan really, and this is how America got great, and how we make America great again.”

            Did you take an actual Trump speech and replace the original topic with ball kicking? Because that was spot on.

              This speech stayed on topic for an entire seven sentences, Trump hasn’t been this coherent since 2014.

              Nope, just the product of too much time at the beginning of my day and an unfortunate familiarity with his variety of bullshit.

            Wow that’s quite a convincing argument. Looking forward to ball-kicking for America.

        My hope was we would see a slow shift after he was out of office like with Bush, but now I’m convinced he’ll be the next Reagan. Decades from now we’ll still be feeling the consequences while they talk about how he was the last great president who you could really trust.
