NBC Reporter Claims Vance ‘Afraid’ to Debate Harris, Gets Slapped Down


As the Democratic ticket falls apart, the Media has been scrambling for a new derogatory plot to pin to the Republican Party. Unfortunately for NBC anchor and senior national correspondent Tom Llamas, his take at undermining the new vice presidential nominee backfired, highlighting the greater issues with Joe Biden.

With a relatively unknown figure chosen as the running mate to former President Donald Trump, Sensor J.D. Vance (R-OH) was the new target for the Liberal Media. Hosts have criticized him, questioned his policies, their respective networks following suit. So when reporter Llamas attempted such a play, pointing out the supposedly hesitant nature Vance has had surrounding a VP debate, he thought he had a winning question. Danielle Alvarez, a spokesperson for the Trump campaign, however did more damage to the Biden Harris campaign than he could wish to do to the Republican one:

LLAMAS: My first question to you is why has the campaign decided not to debate Vice President Kamala Harris? From our understanding the Vice President called JD Vance left a voicemail, then said let's do this, they spoke, and then the campaign put out a statement today saying you guys don't want to debate, why is that?

ALVAREZ: Well first of all I would point out that President Trump did accept a debate on behalf of the Vice President with Fox News, and so Kamala Harris is certainly welcome to accept that debate. I would also point out the Biden camp and Democrats overall are in disarray. We have no idea who will be at the top of their ticket. There have been so many calls for Joe Biden to step down and so would it really be fair if Kamala ends up at the top of the ticket to accept a debate with a potential VP nominee that doesn't exist yet.

 

 

Digging himself into an even deeper hole, Llamas proceeded with an even more ignorant take:

LLAMAS: It wouldn’t be, and I’m just throwing this question out there, that Senator Vance is not ready or isn’t prepared or may be is afraid to debate with the Vice President?

ALVAREZ: Absolutely not! Let us be exceptionally clear, the Trump-Vance ticket has a record of success. We know what a four years of a Trump administration. We have put out a platform. I encourage everyone to go to Donald J Trump.com/platform. To understand how President Trump will turn this country around. And this really is a race about contrast the contrast of President Trump's success and the contrast of Joe Biden's failure and weakness, and JD Vance is an exceptional VP pick but lets wait to see what the Democratic ticket looks like.

It's getting late Llamas, take a seat.
