J.D. Vance Awkwardly Retreats After Bizarre Attempt to Storm Harris’ Empty Plane

J.D. Vance briskly marched up to Air Force 2, Kamala Harris’ plane, planning to give political reporters a show as he confronted the vice president uninvited on Wednesday. His power play dreams, like most of his chaotic veep run, were immediately thwarted once he realized Harris was not present.

How dare he stalk Kamala and her plane?

And follow her on the road?

Women have had to put up with this crap for far too long.

And no filter.

He is like a bubblegum machine.
He spits out whatever he thinks.

And he thinks he is the boss of everyone.
He is the most and only important one around.

He thinks he can sashay up to the VP's airplane to inspect it
as if it is already his. He would not do this to a man.

He does this to intimidate and bully Kamala.

It is definitely abuser vibes.

4. He can't draw a crowd, or flies. He has crowd envy. His toxic masculinity is itching and demanding he DO SOMETHING RASH

He might also be under orders to set a pace that might trigger some maga nutball to take a shot at people.

Is there a bullhorn-like sound apparatus on Harris' plane? Could the crew play Paper Tiger loud and proud when that wannabee tough guy storms around the tarmac?

What happens when one Secret Service detail attempts to arrest the protected person of another Secret Service detail?

10. Yes, quite literally. A Trump plane lands, Vance and company make a move.
