JD Vance wants to make America grovel again.
The vice president complained to Fox News host Will Cain on Thursday that the Democratic mayoral candidate for New York City, Zohran Mamdani, isn’t sufficiently sycophantic for his liking.
“Does Mamdani, when you hear him speak, is this a man who feels gratitude for the United States of America?” Vance asked Cain. “Is this a man who feels grateful for all of the opportunities, the incredible bounty of this country?”
Vance continued by further peddling his authoritarian stance, “I don’t know the guy, but my sense is he has had a very good life in this country. It would be nice for him to occasionally show a sense of gratitude instead of just attacking the United States for all of its problems.“
Ah, yes, because Mamdani’s attempts to solve pragmatic problems such as unaffordable housing and childcare pale in comparison to Vance’s issues with river water not being splashy enough for his birthday.
