Potential Harris VP pick JB Pritzker rips JD Vance with brutal Trump title, Internet says 'well deserved'

WASHINGTON, DC: Illinois Gov JB Pritzker (D) took a jibe at Republican VP pick JD Vance by calling him 'Donald Trump Mini-Me' during an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper on Wednesday, July 24.

Pritzker is reportedly considered a potential running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris, according to HuffPost.

JB Pritzker calls JD Vance 'Donald Trump Mini-Me'

Pritzker said during the interview, "He’s the Donald Trump Mini-Me. Donald Trump has done terribly in Illinois. And across the Midwest, there is a growing sense that JD Vance just doesn’t stand where most Illinoisans and most Midwesterners stand. So, you know, it’s a question."

Moreover, he called Vance the worst launch since Sarah Palin. He also said that Trump seemed to be 'drifting away' from Vance. "So, I’m not sure if Donald Trump is going to frankly throw him off the ticket and pick somebody else because he’s been just terrible on the stump," Pritzker said.

Notably, JD Vance was selected by Trump as his VP Pick on July 15. Since then, he has faced several criticisms. He was criticized for his controversial 'childless cat ladies' comment on Democratic women and he was also trolled online for the absurd defense of his wife as she faced white supremacist attacks.

Moreover, the potential running mate for Harris, Pritzker has advocated for women's reproductive rights and cited Illinois as a model state for women trying to have access to healthcare. 

Many progressive policies, including the outlawing of assault weapons, ghost guns, and switches, raising the minimum wage, enshrining abortion rights in legislation, legalizing cannabis, and erasing records, have all been signed into law by him.
