WATCH: JD Vance asked about Trump ties to Epstein

Published

Open the border. And again, they want to make it so that your vote doesn't matter. I say that's shredding our Constitution. I'd say it's shredding our country. Our country doesn't exist anymore if you open the border, make it impossible for cops to arrest criminals, steal everybody's wealth, and actually make it so that Republicans can't win a national election. You know, it's funny. Democrats, you almost have to hand it to them because they're so radical and they don't even hide it. (04:34–04:47)
