WHEN WAS THIS WOMAN EMBALMED, AND HOW DO THEY KEEP THE CORPSE ANIMATED?

Here’s the exact exchange between ABC’s execrable Martha Raddatz and JD Vance:

Raddatz:

“Senator Vance, I'm gonna stop you because I know exactly what happened,” she claimed. “I'm gonna stop you. The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts apartment complexes, and the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns. A handful of problems.”

Vance:

Martha, do you hear yourself? ‘Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs’, and Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’s open border.

Americans are so fed up with what's going on, and they have every right to be. And I really find this exchange, Martha, sort of interesting because you seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs."

I worry so much more about that problem than anything else here. We've got to get American communities in a safe space again. And, unfortunately, when you let people in by the millions, most of whom are unvetted, most of whom you don't know who they really are, you're going to have problems like this. Kamala Harris, 94 executive orders that undid Donald Trump's successful border policies.

We knew this stuff would happen. That's that's bragged about opening the border, and now we have the consequences, and we're living with it. We can do so much better. But, frankly, we're not gonna do better, Martha, unless Donald Trump calls this stuff out. I'm glad that he did.

PJ Media:

Raddatz, clearly uncomfortable with Vance’s pointed critiques, attempted to steer the conversation back, stating that “the mayor did not seem [to think] they were invading the entire city.” 

That’s when Vance landed the final blow, sarcastically quipping, “A few apartment complexes. No big deal.”

Clearly desperate to move on, Raddatz then pivoted to "women and abortion."

That’s what was aired — Here’s how ABC described what happened:
