MAGAworld is out for George Stephanopoulos yet again after the ABC host challenged Vice President JD Vance in a testy interview on Sunday. Conservatives lashed out at Stephanopoulos for cutting off Vance and abruptly cueing in commercials after a tense back-and-forth over border czar Tom Homan, who was reportedly caught on tape by the FBI accepting $50,000 in cash during an undercover operation last year.

During a nearly four-minute sparring session, the host of ABC’s This Week asked five times whether or not Homan kept the money. Vance repeatedly shut down the story as a “ridiculous smear” and argued that “there’s no evidence” the border czar accepted any bribes.

Vance grew increasingly frustrated and ended the interview by attacking Stephanopoulos, claiming that he was “losing credibility” with viewers for “going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole” instead of asking about the government shutdown. Before discussing Homan, however, Stephanopoulos had also asked Vance about the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and the deployment of troops to Illinois.

“It’s not a weird left-wing rabbit hole. I didn’t insinuate anything,” Stephanopoulos shot back. “I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50,000 as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024 and you did not answer the question. Thank you for your time this morning.” “No, George, I said…” Vance rebutted right as Stephanopoulos told viewers, “We’ll be right back.”

1. it is bizarre how Trump and Vance think they represent only conservative voters

fucking assholes

[Irish_Dem]

2. They only represent one third of America.

The MAGA voters.

3. George did great!

This is what they should all do!

4. It took 17 years

for Stupidfuckidous to find something more "newsworthy" than flag pins, to react to.

[COL Mustard]

5. I used to refer to him as

Snuffleopagous. I never learned how to spell that, and does it ever look weird!

6. Full credit to Stephanopoulos.

He gave Vance exactly what he deserved, on nation-wide TV. Patience and civility are wasted on such an oaf. If the MAGA douches are outraged, so much the better.

7. Watching that video, impossible as it seems,

I feel as much, if not more, nausea as watching trump.

9. And if Trump sues ABC again?

Will they need to cough up another $15 million and say they're sorry like last time?

[OldBaldy1701E]

11. No, they will just hand over some more cash.

After the last time, the only thing that ABC/Disney can do is wave from the guy's asshole.

They will just crawl deeper in.

12. Our hillbilly VP quickly learned from his orange mentor how to deflect, evade and accuse all at the same time

The only thing left is for him to start calling news people derogatory names like Dump does.

13. There's always the consolation that Stephanopoulos repeated at least five times

that Tom Homan took $5,000 in a sting operation by the FBI.

Using Trump & Co.'s MO, you repeat something yay so many times, it becomes truth.

[Hotler]

14. Good! nt

15. Now is your chance George

to take s stand and tell them to F off.
