Vice President JD Vance warned a vote for Democrats in November is a vote for a return to higher crime and inflation, arguing the Trump administration needs another term of GOP power to iron both issues out.

Vance’s comments came as he was pressed on what his message is to voters ahead of the midterm elections during a Newsmax interview. As Democrats seek to make the election about affordability issues, contending that the Iran war has jacked up prices nationwide, the vice president sought to push back. He maintained that President Donald Trump and Republicans have brought inflation down from record highs during the Biden administration, in addition to bringing down crime rates, and sought to convince the country against voting back in “a bunch of radicals who cause these problems that you’re frustrated by in the first place.”
