JD Vance Confronted by Dozens of Empty Seats at Pennsylvania Event

JD Vance was met with multiple empty seats at a campaign event in the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania over the weekend.

Donald Trump's running mate spoke at JWF Industries, a factory for military vehicles in the steel industry city of Johnstown, on Saturday.

Very small room and it was still only half full. This in Johnstown - a super Trumpy area.

It's not Trump's principles or what he promises to do. MAGA wants Trump and nobody else.

Turns out it was some right wing pollster who had him +0.4. Then I looked at the 538 average which still shows Vance at -9.2 favorability. Looks like his low point was -11.3 so he hasn't improved much at all. People just don't like him.

Obviously the chairs were showing their disdain for couches and their supporters by showing up empty. Duh!
