Daily Show mocks JD Vance for distancing from Trump after midterm losses

huffpost.com —

Comedian Jordan Klepper mocked Vice President JD Vance on "The Daily Show" for distancing himself from President Donald Trump after the GOP lost both chambers of Congress in Tuesday's midterm elections. Klepper highlighted Vance's Wednesday social media post blaming the election loss on the Iran war, a conflict Vance had previously defended. The host sarcastically praised Vance's timing, noting he opposed the war only after millions of voters rejected it. The segment reflects growing fractures within Trump's inner circle as Democrats secured control of the House and Senate, with Vance's shift seen as a potential bid for the 2028 presidential race.
