MSNBC’s Joy Reid reacted to the Vice Presidential debate on CBS News last night with a few fact-checks for J.D. Vance. There is a reason that Trump and Vance dislike fact-checks, and Reid came with fire, saying, “A smooth lie is still a lie.”
“He said there were 25 million undocumented immigrants in the country,” Reid pointed out. “It’s probably more like 15, 16. “He repeatedly lied about Springfield again and did it so insistently that he had to have his mic muted because he kept trying to jump in and continue to lie about these people.”
“He said they were brought in through something called the CBP One app,” she continued. “And that is an app that immigrants can use to come in and get a certain kind of visa that was launched in 2020 under drum roll Donald Trump.”
“He says that he never supported a national abortion ban,” Reid continued. “I have here a printout that is already circulating all over social media. This is from the camp. This is from the campaign website of J.D. Vance when he ran for the United States Senate. It is headlined and abortion.”
