"If you think about all the holidays that we celebrate, Thanksgiving is the most uniquely American holiday, the vice president said. Christmas, of course, the birth of Jesus. All these other holidays are very important. And I love Christmas as much as anybody. I've got three little kids. But Christmas is a holiday that 1.8 billion Christians celebrate all over the world."
"You're all full of sh*t. Everybody who raised your hands. Think about it. And here's how I know that every single one of you who raised your hand is lying to me. How many times do you roast an 18-pound turkey just randomly? Just, you know, a nice summer afternoon, we're gonna go get an 18-pound turkey. Nobody does it because turkey doesn't actually taste that good."
"Vance told the crowd he will deep-fry a turkey on Thanksgiving. Here the thing, he added. If you've gotta deep-fry something to make it taste good, it probably isn't that good. That's a pretty good rule of thumb when it comes to food. Chicken is good all the time. Chicken is good when you deep fry it, but it's also good outside of it."
Vice President JD Vance delivered Thanksgiving remarks at Fort Campbell, home of the 101st Airborne Division. He described Thanksgiving as uniquely American and contrasted it with Christmas, which he noted is celebrated by 1.8 billion Christians worldwide. He questioned whether people genuinely like turkey, prompting hoots from some soldiers, and accused those who claimed to like it of lying. He argued that people do not roast 18-pound turkeys except on Thanksgiving because turkey "doesn't actually taste that good." He said he will deep-fry a turkey and added that if something must be deep-fried to taste good, it probably isn't, while praising chicken as consistently good.
