So Rachel Maddow tied Vance to folks who want to overthrow the US Govt and close universities last night. She played clips of him on some youtube far-right talk show. She seemed to think that would come up tonight. Considering MSNBC's ties to the Biden admin, I wonder if she has inside knowledge on that. I could imagine some very stinging jabs based on what Maddow played Vance saying. But I'm not sure they'll really come up. Did any of you see it? Thoughts?
PS: I don't usually watch TV "news," but my 80 yr old Mom nagged me enough by text that I watched the midnight rerun before going to bed. I think watching MSNBC is bad for Mom's heart/soul but at least she's engaged and lives in a swing state!
The thing is, would viewers believe Vance had said such terrible things or was serious about them? Ever since Reagan at least, Americans have tended to dismiss Republican extremism as not possibly what they really plan on doing.
