This is becoming an actual crisis. If Trump's base is abandoning him, his inner circle has got to close ranks. JD Vance, your Trump's constitutionally appointed wingman. Back up your boy. Vice President JD Vance in a stunning post criticizing Republicans' tactics and trying to distance himself from the Iran War started by President Trump. Vance bluntly writing, the reason we lost is the war. Wow. I will say, I applaud JD Vance for having the courage to come out against the war one day after 70 million voters came out against the war. President Trump, this is becoming an existential crisis. Everyone is abandoning you. This is the time to come out and show us that you have the focus, the vision, and full command over the direction of where the country is going. Our country is more successful now than at any time it is. Watch the beam go up.
