Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do.
What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP

Trump's done it again.
RESULT: Nicusor Dan, the centrist mayor of Bucarest, will be the next president of Romania.
A big loss for the far-right: its candidate George Simion got 41% in round one, but didn’t grow enough, & turnout surging worked against him. Simion is down 54.3% to 45.7% with 96% reporting.
