Vice President JD Vance is “scarier in certain ways” than President Donald Trump, according to former White House press secretary Jen Psaki.
Vance is “young” and “ambitious,” Psaki said on the leftist political podcast “I’ve Had It,” adding that the vice president is “agile in the sense that he is a chameleon who makes himself into whatever he thinks the audience wants to hear from him.”
Psaki, who served as press secretary early in President Joe Biden’s administration, also took a swipe at second lady Usha Vance, indicating she might not be happy in her marriage.
“I always wonder what’s going on in the mind of his wife,” Psaki said. “Like, are you OK? Please blink four times. Come over here. We’ll save you.”
While in Israel, Vance was asked about the comments and called them “disgraceful,” adding, “but of course, the second lady can speak for herself. I am very lucky to have a wonderful wife.”
The comments by Psaki, now a host on liberal MSNBC, on Vance are telling: The next presidential election is still more than three years away. It’s no secret that Vance is thought to be a top contender for the Oval Office position, and so the talking heads on the Left are apparently already priming their base to despise him.
On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the Left’s fear, not only of Vance, but of the broader policies of the Trump administration.
Also on today’s show, there is no end in sight to the government shutdown, but Trump is staying busy with the construction of a new White House ballroom well underway. And the New York City mayoral election is around the corner, with crime and housing prices taking center stage. All this and more on this week’s show.
