GOP voters turn on JD Vance presidency run: 'I just don't think he can win'
Republican Party voters are unconvinced by a JD Vance presidential run and say they would turn on the vice president should he be the nominee, according to reporting.
Problems for Vance began not recently, but at the start of Donald Trump's second term as president. According to GOP voters speaking to Politico, the ties to the old establishment will hinder his chances. One voter, Sam Z, said, "I don’t think Vance can win, because I think he’s too connected to the current political establishment in Washington, which I think has a very negative approval rating right now."
"If you look at what he was about in 2018, 2019, 2020, and you look at what he’s about now, it’s very, very different… Somebody younger running in office would be awesome. So that’s the one thing I wouldn’t mind for Vance. But overall, I just don’t think [he] can win. I think he’s kind of flip-flopped on a lot of issues."
Other voters also believe Vance's ties to the current administration are a hindrance rather than a benefit for any potential presidential run in 2028.
One voter, Alexandre M, said, "I feel like it's just time for someone new, especially for the Republican Party." They went on to suggest the Epstein files is a growing issue too, "because JD Vance was also pushing that as well."
Vance was left dealing with an embarrassing moment earlier this week after suggesting the American economy is like the Titanic.
Speaking at an event in Toledo in his home state of Ohio under a banner reading, “Lower Prices, Bigger Paychecks,” Vance addressed the worsening affordability crisis by once again blaming former Democratic President Joe Biden—who left office a year ago—for the problem.
“The Democrats talk a lot about the affordability crisis in the United States of America. And yes, there is an affordability crisis—one created by Joe Biden’s policies,” Vance said. “You don’t turn the Titanic around overnight. It takes time to fix what was broken.”
