Vance jokes about ‘devastating loss last week,’ referring to Ohio State

Published



Vice President JD Vance referenced the “devastating” loss he felt last week, with a not-so-subtle political undertone during his speech for the National Veterans’ Small Business Week.

“I wanted to talk about, of course, the devastating loss last week, and just a little bit about that,” Vance said Monday. “There are a lot of people, I think, unfairly criticizing the leader of the team despite leading us to a great victory two years ago. A lot of people criticizing, unfairly, the leader of the team,” Vance said. “There are a lot of staff infighting, and questions about reshuffling. And, of course, there’s a conversation about whether the No. 2 has what it takes to ultimately lead the team. I’m talking, of course, about the Ohio State Buckeyes.”
