It's bad that some "Autoworkers for Trump" at JD Vance's rally weren't actually autoworkers. It's worse that Trump's plans would cancel huge numbers of manufacturing jobs just like those. I took a closer look at some of Vance's claims about this. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1869...

Fake “Autoworkers for Trump” Are Exposed, Wrecking a Bigger Trump Lie
Fake “Autoworkers for Trump” Are Exposed, Wrecking a Bigger Trump Lie

Trump's agenda would cancel huge numbers of manufacturing jobs in the heartland, and JD Vance just got caught dissembling wildly about this. Democrats should put them on the defensive.

At least Jadey is living up to his promise to "make up stories in order to get press attention," without ever resorting to anything like telling the actual truth about any given topic.

Good piece. Small correction -- it is Craig Mauger (not Munger). He's the main reason I subscribe to that paper, even though the con-leaning News has some of the worst op-ed people this side of the current Washington Post.

Of course the guy who accuses his opponent of stolen valor encourages it at his own rallies.

Remember "Joe the Plumber," who was actually Samuel the tea bagger? MAGAts were always lying pieces of shit. What's new?

Vance is refusing to say whether he and Trump would honor a Biden investment in a new EV project in Lansing. Vance says he and Trump have never said they'd take any money from Michigan autoworkers. This slippery formulation is designed to deceive. 2/ newrepublic.com/article/1869...

I recall a Bush 2 campaign event where there was a backdrop of cardboard boxes some saying Made in USA. Many boxes had a bit of tape in the corner. A reporter peeled off the tape from one of them and it said “Made in China”
