Jonah Goldberg: J.D. Vance Is ‘Exceedingly Deceitful’ for Now Blaming the Iran War for Republicans’ Midterm Losses

EXCERPT:

GOLDBERG: “I think J.D. Vance is a very bad politician and an exceedingly deceitful one. What he’s doing here is he is — he’s a theory of the GOP electorate that he needs to wrap up the sort of Tucker Carlson, Tucker Carlson adjacent, paleocon, Steve Bannon wing of the Republican Party, the isolationist, but recalibrate on Israel crowd. And so what he’s doing here is to slide a hand, where he’s saying it was the war. What Trump said it was the high gas prices, which were the result of the war. He wants to make it, as it says in that post, it says it’s two things, it’s the war, and we need to redo our relationship with Israel. He’s making them the same thing. That’s what he’s trying to do.”
