In a series of recent interviews, JD Vance has come under fire for repeatedly refusing to admit that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. Despite being asked five times in various settings, including a podcast and a New York Times interview, Vance has consistently dodged the question, opting instead to redirect the conversation with vague responses. Critics highlight this evasiveness as a troubling sign of election denialism, especially as Vance previously indicated that Biden won the election legitimately before aligning himself with Trump. The continued refusal to acknowledge the 2020 outcome raises concerns about the influence of election denial within certain political circles.
