JD Vance said he had served in the United States Marine Corps but «what the hell Kamala Harris has done other than collect a check?»
In his address at the rally in Michigan's Grand Rapids on Saturday (local time), Vance said, «There's some bad news actually, Vice President Kamala Harris, she doesn't like me.»
«Kamala Harris said something to the effect that… I have no loyalty to this country. Well, I don't know, Kamala, I did serve in the United States Marine Corps and build a business. What the hell have you done other than collect a check?» Vance said.
Vance's remarks came after Kamala Harris earlier this week criticised him for saying he would not have certified the election results of 2020. Harris even compared Vance to former US Vice President Mike Pence, saying that Vance «would have carried out Trump's plan to overturn the 2020 election.»
In a video released on Wednesday, Harris said, "Donald Trump has picked his new running mate: JD Vance. Trump looked for someone he knew would be a rubber stamp for his extreme agenda." She further said, «Make no mistake: JD Vance will be loyal only to Trump, not to our country,» ABC News reported.
It was Vance's first rally with former US President Donald Trump after being selected as his running mate and also Trump's first rally after surviving an assassination in Pennsylvania last Saturday.
Vance rejected the media's assessment that Trump and the Republican agenda are «radical» and «dangerous.» He was accorded a warm welcome in Michigan, CNN reported.
