Former President Donald Trump's running mate J.D. Vance was widely mocked after telling Trump how "brilliant" he is during the Decision Desk town hall on News Nation to address undecided voters.

In a bizarre clip from the town hall posted on X by the Republicans Against Trump account, host Chris Cuomo announces that Trump called in to ask Vance a question so he could "weigh in" on Vance's performance.

Cuomo announced:

"We have a call right now from former President Donald John Trump. He wants to weigh in."

Trump said:

"I do have a question and I think it'll be an interesting one. The answer should be easy. How brilliant is Donald J. Trump?"

Vance burst into laughter before responding:

"Well, first of all sir, this is supposed to be [for] undecided voters. I would hope that I have your vote, of all people. First of all, sir, you're very brilliant."
"We both agree. We both agree we need very smart people to be running our government."

You can watch what happened in the video below.

It was one very cringey moment and Vance was swiftly mocked for his fawning response.


Vance continued to extoll Trump's virtues, saying Trump would “be a good president for all four years.” Suggesting Trump has stamina, he urged Americans to "look at the campaign schedule Trump has kept compared to his Democratic opponents."

Vance did not acknowledge that Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign has repeatedly noted that Trump has generally campaigned much less than she has even if Trump is currently making the rounds in battleground states ahead of the election.

The suggestion Trump is belied by a recent Politico report that revealed that when the online news site The Shade Room asked the Trump campaign to set up an interview with Trump, it was told by his advisers that he was “exhausted and refusing [some] interviews."

Allegations that Trump is in fact exhausted were lent credence after he appeared to fall asleep in the middle of Latino summit in Doral, Florida, distracting from the opportunity to speak to Hispanic voters about issues like economic growth and border security. He has also canceled multiple events, including a CNN debate, which then turned into a town hall with only Kamala Harris attending.

Dems Share Important Reminder As Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' Is Set To Take Effect In January

After Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration, people are sharing reminders that President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" is set to take effect in January and that Americans could blame Democrats for stipulations Republicans put in the bill.

According to The Washington Post, the bill "includes the biggest reduction of funding for the federal safety net since at least the 1990s, targeting more than $1 trillion in social spending." The Post noted that the $3 trillion package "partially pays for its large price tag by slashing spending on Medicaid and food stamps (SNAP), which congressional Republicans maintain are rife with fraud."

Texas Election Results Reveal Just How Badly James Talarico Beat Ken Paxton—And We Love To See It

While election results in Texas have still not been fully tallied, the unofficial results have revealed that the election between Democrat James Talarico and Republican Ken Paxton in the race for the U.S. Senate was over before Election Day even hit because Talarico received more early votes than Paxton received in total.

The scale of Talarico’s victory was evident in the early-voting figures. He received 5,444,982 votes overall, including 4,397,474 cast before Election Day. Paxton, by comparison, finished with 4,249,373 votes, of which 3,232,667 were early ballots. In other words, Talarico secured nearly 150,000 more votes during early voting alone than Paxton received across the entire election.

Jesse Watters Has Complete Meltdown After Republicans Lose The Midterms—And We're Grabbing The Popcorn

Fox News host Jesse Watters expressed sheer disbelief after Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration.

A Trump advisor told CNN that the election results were "essentially too big to rig." President Donald Trump has said he accepts the results and even acknowledged that his widely unpopular war in Iran played a significant role in pushing Americans to vote for Democrats. Affordability concerns, chief among them the price of gas, also contributed to the backlash Republicans experienced at the voting booth.
