That word was not an accident. Because he used it more than once to hammer it in:

“I frankly just think it’s hysterical how much the media is overreacting to it,” Vance said while traveling to a campaign rally in Arizona.

“So what he said, I thought it was hysterical. I think he pointed out the fundamental chameleon-like nature of Kamala Harris,” Vance said. “She’s flip flopped on every issue. She’s fake. She’s phony. And I think our whole campaign is going to have a very fun time pointing that out. And it sounds like the president kicked us off in stride.”

For those unaware: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hysteria

The Appalachian hillbilly from suburban Ohio knows what that word means. He went to Yale.

    During WW2 but before the us entered? What a dumb question, of course but that time they were already running concentration camps.

    Are you implying jd Vance is literal Hitler and runs concentration camps in his backyard I guess?

    I sourced you the definition. I say he’s my opponent which does not imply violence, you say he is your enemy which does imply violence and you’re also berating me because I agree with you but refuse to use violent vitriolic language.

    Neat, logic that one out yourself.

      I said Nazis, not Hitler. I also said nothing about Vance in that context, he wasn’t alive in the 1940s.

      And Nazis would only be your enemy if war was declared? The whole ‘oppressing Jews and others since 1933’ wouldn’t be a factor?

      By the way, I’m waiting for you to quote me calling for violence. Was that a lie? Should I flag you for trolling?

        Yes the Nazis famously led by whom? Context matters, bringing up Nazis is invoking Hitler and implying jd is literal Hitler.

        No, I mention that the way was already going to point out the ineptitude of your choice of date, 1938 being the most apt for your situation.

        The word evemy, I already offered the definition, you either lack reading ability, simply didn’t read it and you’re being wildly obtuse.

        We agree, why are you being a Vance right now?

          Nope, I’m implying Trump is going to be another Hitler if elected and Vance wants that to happen, making him evil. You do not think evil people are your enemy. I find that a morally abhorrent position.

          And you won’t quote me calling for violence despite accusing me of it. It was a lie and you are obviously a troll. I will just flag you accordingly and move on.
