"First of all, it's really rich for Democratic leaders to say that Donald Trump is a unique threat to democracy when he peacefully gave over power on January the 20th as we have done for 250 years in this country," Vance insisted. This assertion was central to Vance's argument regarding the legitimacy of the election transition, which he used to deflect criticism.
"Hillary Clinton, in 2016, said that Donald Trump had the election stolen by Vladimir Putin because the Russians bought like $500,000 worth of Facebook ads," he said. This highlights Vance's contention that questioning election results is not solely a Republican issue, suggesting it has been a bipartisan practice over time.
"January 6th was not Facebook ads, and I think a revisionist history on this," Walz said. He stressed the severity of the January 6th events, indicating that such actions go beyond the typical election disputes and have serious implications for democracy.
