It's so funny that he tries to make a joke about @AOC and gets no laughs, which is a reminder that AOC and Newsom and the rest of the top tier Dems could make mincemeat out of this guy in 2028. He has the charisma of a broken wooden chair and the humor of Elon Musk. https://t.co/b9flIKZ4n9

It's true. People would like JD Vance more if he just kept his mouth shut. https://t.co/23ZyFZEsyW

Genuinely do not think he’s gonna be the nominee. It’s not just a lack of sauce, it’s that he tried to compensate for it with lip filler. If this guy has to interact live on stage with AOC or Ossoff, it’s over. They’ll have to slap some lifts on Rubio and run him or something idk https://t.co/alAjKNsMaB

After all the striving, all he’s done to recreate himself for political gain, the one thing JD Vance can’t obtain no matter how hard he tries is a sense of humor. pic.twitter.com/QSb6QTed04

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, herself, had a simple but effective riposte.
The only thing longer than my pause to think was their silence to his joke 💀 https://t.co/Rdo0ukVW2W
