dropping off of a bridge, which is classic train wreck.

It was like 1 resident, and the story turned out to be a fake.
Just what we need...leaders that perpetuate falsehoods. Not!

(950 posts)3. Vance said he had first-hand constituents telling them this story.
No one called the cops, the sheriff, the town council, the mayor, the TV station, the newspaper, their state representatives or state senator, their US House Representatives or their other US Senator. They only complained to JD Vance.
Why didn't they bring their problem to the United Nations?

I'm thinking Vance is his own constituent, which I guess could technically be true.
