EAU CLAIRE, WISCONSIN: Republican vice presidential nominee Sen JD Vance teased the reboot of the HBO show 'Entourage' posing for a photo with his campaign team on a tarmac after stalking Vice President Kamala Harris.

Sharing a photo with his team walking in front of the vice president's Air Force Two on X (formerly Twitter), the Ohio senator wrote, "This Entourage reboot is going to be awesome." The viral photo came shortly after he briefly crossed paths with Harris at the Chippewa Valley Regional Airport in Wisconsin on Wednesday, August 7.

The Democratic presumptive nominee landed at the tarmac with her VP pick, Minnesota Gov Tim Walz, for their first joint rally in North Philadelphia. The Trump-Vance campaign plane also landed on the same tarmac shortly after for the events in Eau Claire.

JD Vance makes 'Entourage' reference after stalking Kamala Harris

JD Vance boasted about his bizarre and brief encounter with his Democratic rival, hoping for a reboot of the HBO series.

'Entourage' the eight-season comedy series by Doug Ellin, follows the life of a young A-list movie actor, Vincent Chase, played by Adrian Grenier, and his childhood friends Eric Murphy, Salvatore 'Turtle' Assante, and Johnny' Drama' Chase from New York City. The show made a satirical depiction of the Hollywood lifestyle.

Vance made the encounter with Harris awkward as he appeared to leave his plane and went towards the VP, leaving everyone with the assumption that he was attempting to speak with her.

Instead, he approached her press pool and criticized Harris over her lack of media appearances since becoming the presidential candidate.

"I figured I'd come by and, one, just get a good look at the plane because hopefully it's going to be my plane in a few months, but I also thought you guys might get lonely because the vice-president doesn't answer questions from reporters and hasn't for 17 days," he said according to Intelligencer.



 

In the event of the Trump-Vance ticket winning in November, Vance would be the one to enjoy his travels in Air Force Two carrying the vice president of the United States.
