At a campaign rally in North Carolina on Wednesday, Senator JD Vance took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing her of weak foreign policy and arguing that she will lead America “into a nuclear war” if given the chance. Speaking to a crowd of supporters in Asheboro, Vance framed Harris as a key reason for the current global instability.
“Under Kamala Harris, Putin invaded Ukraine. But under Donald Trump, Putin didn’t do a… thing. And that’s because of strong leadership,” Vance said. He argued that respect for Trump’s leadership kept potential conflicts at bay and allowed the U.S. to focus on its own issues, particularly border security. “That is the Donald Trump principle,” Vance added. “And that’s what we’re going to bring back to the White House.”
Vance also dismissed the idea that Trump was a nuclear threat, instead positioning him as a president who preserved peace through diplomacy. He praised Trump’s historic diplomatic efforts with North Korea, recalling the former president’s 2019 meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Vance highlighted Trump’s approach, which combined humor and boldness. “You remember when he went to North Korea… he brings the media in and he says, all right, everybody take some photos of us, make us look nice and make us look skinny. And Kim Jong Un sat up like that,” Vance recounted. “It means something to have a president who’s not afraid to go into hostile territories, tell a few jokes, and actually engage in diplomacy.”
Vance accused Democrats of falsely portraying Trump as a nuclear threat while asserting that Trump was the one who “prevented nuclear war.” He then warned that Harris could do the opposite. “If we’re not careful, Kamala Harris is going to walk us right into nuclear war,” he claimed. “We got to kick her out and not give her a promotion to the president of the United States.”

So Vance is claiming that Harris will honor American commitments to allies (such as Israel, the NATO countries, Taiwan, Philippines, South Korea), and Trump plans to follow a policy of conflict avoiding appeasement to the “axis” of Russia, China and Iran. For those of us annoyed by Biden having stabbed the Afghanis in the back, and his half-hearted support (victory avoidance as a policy goal) shown in the Ukrainian and Israeli wars, this isn’t what we want to hear from Trump’s camp.
If Harris manages to snatch this issue from the Republicans (by speaking strongly of defending allies, including Israel) it will significantly impact on both Jews and the Reagan/Bush Republicans (who are now the RINOs). If MAGA means surrendering the world to the “bad guys”, how does that make American great.
Russian propaganda. Republicans let North Korea get nukes btw just like they’re letting Iran.
Vance would avoid war by selling out every US ally. He already voted against aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. And he will lileky become President is Trump wins as Trump, who is older now than Biden was four years ago, is obviously in failing health. Trump already gave the green light to Iran enriching uranium while President and also to Putin subsidizing Iran tens of billions of dollars a year. It is scsry that so many Jews do not realize the danger that Trump and Vance represent.
