Why did Trump pick J.D. Vance as his running mate? Stephen Colbert Night Screening In the clip above, Vance’s charisma is compared to that of a plank of wood.
As one example, Colbert played footage of Vance at an Ohio rally making a joke about Democrats and Mountain Dew that went wrong, after which Vance awkwardly laughed and said, “I love you guys.”
“Oh man, you sound like a groom who invited only his coworkers to his bachelor party,” Colbert said, impersonating Vance. “I love you all. Thanks for coming to my mom’s house. Hey, can I get a little crazy and order another Diet Mountain Dew? If the Democrats will let me? Where’s everybody going? It’s just me and you again, Mom.”
