LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro made an appearance on 'The View' on Friday, September 6, where he offered some candid advice for JD Vance regarding his ambitions beyond Donald Trump.

Shapiro’s recommendation? A better hairstyle.

According to the Wrap, this bit of counsel emerged during a rapid-fire segment of Shapiro's interview with the ABC hosts.

The game had Sara Haines presenting incomplete sentences for Shapiro to finish, touching on lighter topics like his Taylor Swift era and his fantasy football draft picks.

“Get a better haircut,” Shapiro quipped, causing the room to burst into laughter once again.

Josh Shapiro’s bold predictions and insightful commentary on political shifts

In the rest of his interview, Ben Shapiro discussed the current political landscape and addressed the shifting dynamics within the Democratic Party.

When Sunny Hostin questioned him about the change in patriotic sentiments, Shapiro acknowledged the transformation in political rhetoric.

Hostin pointed out that Democrats now seem to have taken up the mantle of patriotism, contrasting with previous Republican stronghold on this sentiment.

Shapiro responded, “First off, let’s speak truth here, Joe Biden is a great patriot. He has been for decades, and he showed tremendous leadership. There is real momentum. Folks are fired up.”

He emphasized that this enthusiasm extends beyond just polling numbers. The energy is also reflected in grassroots activities, such as yard signs and community involvement.



 

Shapiro noted, “It’s not just folks who will vote for Kamala Harris based on polls, but also the energy around what happens when you put a sign on your lawn, right?”

He elaborated that this momentum is visible across Pennsylvania, not just in major cities but also in rural and exurban areas. “I see a whole lot of Harris signs going up across Pennsylvania,” he said.

He highlighted how local engagement, like volunteering for campaign activities and showing support publicly, has a significant impact. “When your neighbor walks over to you and says, ‘I’m for Kamala, and here’s why,’ that has a huge impact on the race,” Shapiro explained.

This community-driven enthusiasm suggests a positive outlook for the Harris-Walz ticket and indicates that the momentum may continue as the election approaches.
