In a series of public statements and media appearances, Ohio Senator JD Vance has positioned himself as a staunch defender of former President Donald Trump, amidst a whirlwind of controversies and legal challenges.

Seems like Vance is just spotlighting the obvious, that the Dems are using Trump as a smokescreen to keep our eyes off the mess they're making.
