JD Vance actually said that it doesn’t matter because, “It’s how it feels.”
This mirrors almost exactly what the Alex Jones staff said during depositions. It didn’t matter if they had facts. What mattered is that the alternative felt true and they would report on that.
Kellyanne Conway, senior member of the 2016 Trump admin, wanted people to look into Trump’s heart for the truth:
You can’t give him the benefit of the doubt on this and he’s telling you what was in his heart, you always want to go with what’s come out of his mouth rather than look at what’s in his heart
I think Lindsey Graham said the same thing after the RNC back in 2016. It’s been going on forever, but that’s the first time I remember one of them saying it out loud. Paraphrasing, “I’m a politician. You can have your facts, I’ll take people’s feelings every time.”
I mean, giving him a very very large margin of doubt, there’s a part of this that makes sense. Like you’re dealing with people and you need to understand their feelings.
BUT if those feelings are so far divorced from facts that they think that immigrants are eating pets, you stand up to your constituents with heart and concern and tell them why they are wrong.

That’s soooo much worse! She has to know that right?
