Skittish Vance Punts When Asked About Iran War: ‘I Don’t Want To Go To Prison’

Vice President JD Vance was asked about the ongoing military conflict between the United States and Iran on Friday, and his responses seem to suggest that he’s terrified of saying anything bad about his boss, Donald Trump.

Taking questions from reporters following his speech in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, Vance was asked by Bill Barrow of the Associated Press, “Did you express any concerns like those you’ve expressed in the past on the possibility of those extended wars?”

Vance didn’t exactly answer the question, which is telling in its own way, and he also refused to say if he supported military action against Iran.

“We’re in the Situation Room, where you can’t even take your iPod in there, or your AirPods, I guess what they’re called, you can’t take your iPhone in there, you can’t take anything in there — because it is the most classified space anywhere in the world.”

“And I sit there with Pete Hegseth, and Gen. Caine, and Marco Rubio, and the entire White House team, and the president and I, and the entire senior team are talking about the options and about what we need to do and how we must best protect the American people,” he added. “I hate to disappoint you, but I’m not going to show up here in front of God and everybody else and tell you exactly what I said in that classified room partially because I don’t wanna go to prison and partially because I think it’s important for the President of the United States to talk to his advisors without those advisors running their mouth to the American media.”

Translation: I don’t have a backbone. It’s just a gelatinous mass similar to what you see when you make Jell-O at home.

If it wasn’t clear before, it should be now: JD Vance, who served in the military, is a coward when it comes to actually speaking his mind, both because he’s afraid of his boss and also because he hopes to have a future in the Republican Party.

Vance was ripped apart on social media for his gutless response.

JD Vance is a gutless simp. And that’s why he’s the perfect VP for Dementia Don.
