Vice President JD Vance just revealed himself to be a "shapeshifter" in a way that revealed something "quite ugly" about himself, according to one expert.
In late February, MAGA media star Tucker Carlson interviewed U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, which Vance described to The Washington Post on Friday as a "really good conversation that's going to be necessary for the right." That depiction was highly problematic for former State Department Counselor Eliot Cohen, who said on a new episode of the "Shield of the Republic" podcast that it showed something "quite ugly" about the Vice President's personality.
"What it tells you is that JD Vance, who is a shapeshifter if ever there was one, is really willing to play with some quite ugly rhetoric, and some very problematic figures," Cohen said. "Carlson now at this point is essentially platforming really crazed anti-semmites and and edging into that himself. The fact that JD Vance thinks that that's okay, well, it tells you really most of what you need to know about JD Vance."
During the interview, Carlson and Huckabee made multiple controversial statements, according to Cohen. For instance, Huckabee said Israel has the right to take over some of its neighboring countries to restore its Biblical borders, which is something most hard-liners in the country don't agree with, Cohen said.
