JD Vance and Jake Tapper Clash Over Trump Allegations and Media Integrity

Vance defends Trump against claims of fascism while accusing CNN of biased reporting during a heated interview.

JD Vance, Trump's vice-presidential nominee, defended former President Trump against allegations of fascism made by ex-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.
During a CNN interview, Vance accused the network of taking Trump's 'enemy from within' comments out of context and questioned its integrity over past coverage of the Russia investigation.
Vance suggested that criticisms from former Trump officials were politically motivated and part of an effort to undermine Trump's re-election campaign.
CNN's Jake Tapper challenged Vance's claims, particularly regarding alleged coordination between John Kelly and Kamala Harris's campaign, which Vance could not substantiate.
The interview highlighted ongoing tensions between Trump supporters and the media, with Vance accusing CNN of prioritizing past controversies over current policy discussions.
