Trump surprised JD Vance by calling in to ask a question at his town hall in Michigan:
“How brilliant is Donald J. Trump?”
Trump calls into JD Vance’s town hall: “How brilliant is Kamala?”
JD: “That’s a very tough one, sir.”
PRESIDENT TRUMP: “Don’t say it.”
Republican vice presidential nominee and Ohio Senator JD Vance participated in a town hall in Detroit with NewsNation’s & Chris Cuomo. During the event, Vance fielded several questions from Republicans, Democrats, and undecided voters.
But roughly two-thirds of the way through the town hall, Cuomo had some unexpected news to share with Vance and told him he would want to sit down for it. He noted that, much like Beetlejuice, if one invokes Trump’s name too many times in a row, he will respond.
And guess what? Trump picked up the phone and called into the town hall to weigh in. And he had a question which had the entire room (including Cuomo) in stitches. CUOMO: Mr. President, what is your question for the senator?
TRUMP: I do have a question, and I think it will be quite an interesting one. The answer should be easy:
How brilliant is Donald J. Trump?
(Everyone, including Cuomo and Vance, erupts in laughter)
VANCE: First of all, sir, these are supposed to be undecided voters, so I hope I have your vote of all people. First of all, sir, you’re very brilliant, and we both agree. (more laughter) We both agree it is important to have very smart people running our government.
One of my favorite moments with President Trump is we were hosting an event forum near my home in Cincinnati a few months ago. My wife was a little bit nervous about talking to the president of the United States.
And he asked her: ‘What do you think about your husband being in public service? And she gives a very diplomatic answer.’ She says, ‘Sir, he really cares about the people of Ohio… and I’m happy to support him however I can.’
And President Trump goes: ‘Yeah, my wife hates it, too.”
(everyone including Cuomo laughs again)
TRUMP: Maybe I’ll ask a second one (question). Believe it or not, I watched CNN last night; I watched the town hall with Kamala. Now let me ask you a second one (question): How brilliant is Kamala?
(audience and Vance laugh)
VANCE: That’s a tough one, sir.
TRUMP: Don’t say it.
(Vance laughs again)
