Yeah, we might start there, at least.

They are more intelligent and see through him. Not to belabour the point that he has never accomplished anything, but then to throw up this barrage of disinformation against those who have. Thats his schtick. Thats why “career politician” stands out on his resume.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

He has absolutely nothing of value to offer Canadians, though he takes plenty from us.
