JD Vance is Really, Really Bad At This (w/ Jon Favreau) | The Bulwark Podcast

One of the promises of this country has been the freedom to walk down the street without being harassed by the government. But even being an American citizen isn’t stopping ICE agents from grabbing people with passports or IDs—and detaining them for hours. At the same time, many of the thugs and sadists who want to do the grabbing and snatching are pathetically failing basic physical fitness tests. Plus, JD is painfully unfunny, Republicans calling Democrats ‘terrorists’ has real world consequences, and Dems need more normal people running for office—but they should save the wild card candidates for long shot races.
