Andy Beshear rips JD Vance as having ‘no conviction’ while Trump ‘has 34’
Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY) continued his assault on Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), saying he has “no conviction,” while former President Donald Trump “has 34.”
Beshear is widely seen as a top contender as running mate for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris. The interest has put him in the national spotlight, where he has begun campaigning against Vance, the running mate of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, with Beshear speaking as someone from the same geographical region.
SIX PEOPLE KAMALA HARRIS COULD CHOOSE AS HER RUNNING MATE
The Democratic governor made his attack in response to Vance criticizing Harris, remarks which were presented by CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.
“Well, first, he ought to call the vice president by her title. She earned it. She is Vice President Harris,” he said after Vance simply referred to her by her name. “But the second is the grasping for straws. Listen, J.D. Vance is a phony. He’s fake. I mean, he first says that Donald Trump is like Hitler, and now he’s acting like he’s Lincoln. I mean, the problem with J.D. Vance is he has no conviction, but I guess his running mate has 34.”
His latter remark was a reference to Trump’s 34 criminal convictions around his alleged hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
Beshear later dodged criticism from Vance about his background, in which the Ohio Republican said he inherited the Kentucky governorship from his father.
“What was weird was him joking about racism today and then talking about diet Mountain Dew. Who drinks diet Mountain Dew?” he said in response to Vance’s attack. “But in all seriousness, he ain’t from here. He is not from Kentucky. This a guy who would come, maybe in the summers, for some period of time, or to weddings or funerals, and then he claims to be from eastern Kentucky, tries to write a book about it, to profit off our people. And then he calls us lazy. And this makes me angry but especially makes me angry about our people in eastern Kentucky.”
