The full quote is even better.
What they have done is engage in this act of economic terrorism against the entire world. They basically threatened any ship that’s moving through the Straits of Hormuz. Well, as the President showed, two can play at that game, and if the Iranians are going to engage in economic terrorism, we’re gonna … abide by a simple principle that no Iranian ships are getting out either.
That pregnant pause in the “…”
Narrator: In this moment, he knew he fucked up.
Getting Deja Vu from George W’s “Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice . . . . won’t get fooled again”
Of course that was pretty benign compared to this, but always interesting to see the gears turn when they realize the natural flow of their words is very much not what they want to be saying.
Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.
George W. Bush
Same vibes.
They have an old saying in Tennessee. I know they havebit in Texas. Probably here in Tennessee too. Fool me once, shame on…shame on you. Fool me twice…can’t get fooled again.
I couldn’t believe he actually said that, amazing

No mention of “nucular” though… so sad.I like this upfront way more than the usual hypocritical way.
The slick war criminal Obama is the perfect example.

“No no no no no! STOP! STOP!”
Well it’s hard for a majority of voters to understand. It requires basic literacy.
They have been economic terrorists since forever.
Slapping sanctions and embargos on any country they don’t like.
If they weren’t plainly murdering them.For what it’s worth, “economic terrorism” isn’t that, and he’d surely know as much. It definitionally means “non-state actors”, but that’s clearly not what Vance is referring to (state vs. state actors); it’s like he’s taking “economic warfare” and slapping the word “terrorism” over it – probably to subtly agitate Americans’ association between terrorism and the Middle East. So “it’s a blockade when we do it; it’s terrorism when they do” is the doublethink rationale here.
My dog could be VP and fumble less than this couch rapist.
they seem to be pushing for that guy to be president or something
Nobody knows more about raping people than the president!
-JD Vance, probaby
I feel terrorized every time I’m reminded he exists
Always has been
Is this real?
Well Vance did say: ‘What they have done is engage in this act of economic terrorism against the entire world. As the President showed, two can play at that game.’ The rest is twitter speculation.
