    WATCH: Vance Hilariously Roasts NYT, NYT Reporter to Their Face and the Crowd Roars with Applause

    Vice presidential candidate JD Vance recently skewered the New York Times and a reporter representing the outlet who tried to attack the Trump-Vance campaign.  Former President Donald Trump and Vance have received immense backlash surrounding the discussion on Springfield, Ohio, and the issues stemming from the influx of Haitian migrants, which the Trump-Vance campaign has drawn attention to.

    During the presidential debate, Trump caught backlash for voicing the alleged concerns of residents that the migrants from vastly different cultural backgrounds were eating cats and dogs.  Furthermore, the media has blasted Vance over the wording of his comment that he and Trump are “creating stories” surrounding the controversy.  However, Vance explained that he and Trump simply shed light on lesser-covered stories.

    During a recent campaign event, a reporter from the New York Times asked Vance, “The question is about Springfield, not about the situation, but the style, the which I think is something new that we’re seeing on the campaign trail. You’ve said, regardless of what the exact, precise facts are here, it’s worth it to make the larger point of in town overrun by immigration.”

    Vance interjected emphasizing that his assertion is incorrect, maintaining that he is not spinning up fictitious accounts.  “No, no, I’d say, Mike, all you ask your question, but no, I didn’t say, regardless of the precise facts. I said, you have to listen to what people are saying, right?”

    Vance continued, “The media has tried to say now for days that I’ve made up this story. I haven’t made up anything.”  The Ohio senator maintained that he is listening to the concerns of his constituents when he discusses the migrant crisis in Springfield.  “I’ve just listened to people who are telling me these things, and when I said and the media always does this, they’re very dishonest when I say that I created a story,” he said.



    The vice presidential candidate continued, “I’m talking about the media story by focusing the press’s attention on what’s going on in Springfield. I’m not making anything up. I’m just telling me these things, and when I said and the media always does this, they’re very dishonest when I say that I created a story. I’m talking about the media story by focusing the press’s attention on what’s going on in Springfield. I’m not making anything up. I’m just telling you what my own constituents are telling me.”

    Continuing on this point, Vance illustrated the scale to which the constituents he represents are observing problems stemming from the unfettered inflow of migrants into their community.  He maintained it is his job to report about these concerns accurately.

    kidding aside, if one person had called me and said, I’m seeing this in Springfield, we maybe let that pass. When 4, 5, 6, 7, people are telling me they call it. They see something in Springfield, and on top of it that there are certain people who refuse to listen to them, who refuse to take their concerns seriously. That’s when it’s my job as a United States senator to listen to my constituents. That’s that’s really, it’s very simple.
