Kimmel to J.D. Vance: It’s Very Wrong to Chat with Dictators ... Same Reason We Don’t Throw a Party for Diddy

EXCERPT:

KIMMEL: "Trump’s running mate, Maybelline brand ambassador J.D. Vance, likes — he enjoys taking questions from the press at his appearances so the crowd can boo the reporters. I guess that’s fun for him. So at a campaign stop in Detroit, a reporter asked him about these calls with Putin, and J.D. doesn’t seem to have any problem with them at all."

VANCE: "Even if it’s true, look, is there something wrong with speaking to world leaders?"

KIMMEL: "First of all, yes. And second, yes, it’s very wrong to have chats with dictators who are trying to exterminate our allies when you aren’t the president anymore. Same reason you don’t throw a birthday party for Diddy, okay? It’s also — in addition to being inappropriate, it’s illegal under the Logan Act for private citizens to engage in foreign policy that undercuts America.”
