In this exchange between JD Vance and Kristen Welker, Vance strongly defends former President Donald Trump’s proposal to investigate alleged wrongdoing by President Joe Biden.
He argues that it’s reasonable for Trump to suggest such investigations, especially given what he views as the Biden administration’s misuse of legal power against political opponents.
When Welker tries to press Vance on whether he supports Trump appointing a special prosecutor to target political enemies, Vance confirms his support for investigating potential governmental wrongdoing.
He also challenges Welker’s assertion that Biden had no direct involvement in the appointment of special prosecutors, emphasizing the role of the Attorney General, who answers to the President.
The conversation becomes more contentious as Vance criticizes the media and the Democrats for allegedly misrepresenting Trump’s intentions, while Welker continues to question the ethics of such actions, drawing parallels to the Biden administration.
Vance also distances himself from comments made by the Heritage Foundation, particularly regarding political violence, while maintaining his stance on the importance of law and order.
Throughout the interview, Vance systematically refutes Welker’s points, maintaining his position and questioning the legitimacy of the Biden administration’s actions, which he views as politically motivated.
