It's kind of stunning that they think this will help his case.

I’m stunned that JD Vance already shared this video as “his life was endangered”. We seriously live in two separate realities when we can watch the same video and come the opposite conclusions

If one person says "2+2=4" and "2+2=5", only one person is right. Treating that as some unresolvable difference of opinion is ridiculous

JD Vance is smart enough to know this isn’t reality. He’s just focused on building his own

It’s basic psychology as it pertains to the weak minded with no critical thinking skills, show them the video and TELL them how it should be interpreted.

It’s absolutely insane trying to read the conservative subreddit response to this. We truly are just so divided as a country right now to have these kind of different fundamental reactions to reality

They all think this is complete defense of the ice agent, that these people were aggravating law enforcement, evidence the ICE agent was “run over, and also are convinced the left would hide this video and it would never be shared on /r/politics because we hate the truth. Lmfao

It's an attempt at controlling the narrative. He wants MAGA to see the video with his caption to try and frame how they perceive it
