In a move intended to troll former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, ahead of the first and only vice presidential debate of 2024, the Democratic National Committee on Monday night is digitally projecting various phrases — including Vance previously calling Trump an "idiot" — onto Trump Tower in New York City.
The projections appeared just hours after Vance arrived at Trump Tower on Monday ahead of Tuesday night's vice presidential debate with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz at the CBS Broadcast Center in Manhattan. "Vance on Trump: 'What an idiot,'" one of the digital projections says, referring to a Vance tweet from October 2016, when he wrote, "My god what an idiot," about Trump — part of a slew of criticisms Vance has since said he regrets.
The DNC's projections are also aimed at the former president for saying he won't again debate Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump has said "it's just too late, voting has already started," but Democrats note that he participated in October debates in the last two election cycles.
"Trump is a chicken!" says another message projected on Trump Tower, following Democrats sponsoring billboards near a Trump rally in battleground Pennsylvania last week with the same sentiment.
