See how JD Vance’s poll numbers compare with Sarah Palin, Dan Quayle

JD Vance, his appeal or lack thereof, in some cases, is raising questions about Trump's choice for his VP and, you know, Trump. Trump prides himself on picking stars. And no, I mean that that that's part of his his M.O.. You know him for 20 years. You know, we all know this about him. And it's a conversation about JD Vance inherent in kicked off on this show earlier this week when Harry shared these eye popping stats and analysis that showed that Vance has the lowest net favorability rating of any VP nominee following convention since 1980, which is as far back as polling goes. Can't go back any further. And Harry is back with me now with some more new numbers on Vance. And what a Klein Klein graphic up there, I will, I'll thank you. But, you know, you did this. This is this is crucial. I mean, to compare to those you knew that that included Sarah Palin and Dan Quayle and all those those VP's that you looked at the analysis. You've got, the Rust Belt where he's from. Yeah. And, you know, he he said Trump chose him for the Rust Belt. Correct. Okay. So what what do we see in that? I mean, I guess let's let's hear it. First of all, they've laid it out. So we'll play it. Yeah. He just said look I think we got to go save this country. I think you're the guy who could help me in the best way you can help me govern. You can help me win. You can help me in some of these Midwestern states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and so forth. Does JD Vance help Trump in those states? Not according to the federal ratings. You know, his favorable rating is below 30%. His unfavorable rating is up above 40%. That creates a net favorability rating of -16 points. He does worse in his home region, -16 points than he does in the average of all polls, which is a minus five point net favorability rating. So the people who know him best, the region that knows him best, they like him even less than America likes him. And of course, as you pointed out again in that kind of intro, is he has historically unpopular for a VP nominee coming out of his first convention as a VP. All right. So let's specifically look at some former Republican vice president presidential candidates. What do you say? Yeah. You know, you mentioned Sarah Palin. How about Dan Quayle as well? These are two folks who I think most people remember as not being particularly popular. The amazing thing was coming out of their conventions, they actually were pretty popular. Quayle with a plus 15 point net Favourability rating. Sarah Palin with a plus 26 point net favorability rating. Again, Vance minus five points is just off the charts and falling off the chart in the wrong direction. Not up above the chart, but down below the chart. The fact that he is historically unpopular, even more so than VP nominees, who, of course, went on to infamy at least. And well, I mean, right. So you look at what happened to those two and they plunged. You know, some may say, well, maybe there's nowhere to go but up for Vance, but in but in margins, that's not true. It can get worse. Yeah. I don't know which way it will go. All right. So when this comes to the broader country, you talked about how where the area that knows best, right now in the favourability likes him least. But undecided voters and that's what this is about. There are more of them than a lot of people care to admit. Yeah. And prior to the seismic shift in the race, many of them may have gone for Trump. Now, who knows what they're going to do? How does Vance play there? He doesn't play well with them at all. His favorable rating is just 5%. Just 5% hold a favorable rating, 29% hold on unfavorable. And that makes a net favorability rating of -24 points. That's worse than his net favorability ratings overall. The fact is, if undecided voters are going to make up their mind based upon J.D. Vance, they're going to make it and make the choice for Kamala Harris. 5% favorable, 5% favorable. Never heard of anything like that, I really haven't. There's still a lot of folks who are undetermined on him, but that 5% is not something I think is going to go on his wall of fame. All right, Harry, thank you very much. Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona, who is a VP potential pick for Kamala Harris, went on the attack against J.D. Vance. What I really worry about is what he would do in one heartbeat away from the president. Well, if Donald Trump and JD Vance were back in the white House would be an utter disaster. All right. Those comments come as Vance's entry to the national stage is off to a rocky start. Sunlen Safadi is OutFront. We love this country, and we are united to win. Ten days since Donald Trump named him his running mate. We got to we got to work hard for every single vote. J.D. Vance is confronting a dramatically reshaped political landscape. We got to make more of our own stuff. We got to make it with our own workers hands, and we're going to do it for our own people right here in the United States of America, right here in Michigan. As Democrats elevate Vice President Kamala Harris to the top of the Democratic ticket. I wouldn't be shocked if they tried to do another switcheroo. If her poll numbers don't get a lot better, because it's clear these guys don't actually care about Democracy Now! Vance waiting for Harris to pick his vice presidential rival. I was told I was going to get to be Kamala Harris, and now President Trump's going to get to debater. I'm kind of pissed off about that. All while attempting to define himself on the campaign trail. Well, life wasn't all that different from a lot of people who grew up in Middletown, Ohio. It was tough, but it was surrounded by loving people with some moments that have fallen flat. Democrats say that it is racist to believe what they say. It's racist to do anything. I had a Diet Mountain Dew yesterday and one today. I'm sure they're going to call that racist too, but. It's good. I love you guys. And Vance has been sparring with potential Democratic VP contenders. The nerves that he has to call the people of Kentucky, of Eastern Kentucky lazy. Nobody gave me the governorship and nobody gave me a job. My father was. I'm proud of that. As Vance steps forward in the national spotlight, he's drawing more scrutiny from late night comics. This man said, I thought JD Vance is the oldest sister on full House. And finally, Mike pence said, whoever he is, may God have mercy on his soul. And criticism of past comments like this. We're effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made. And so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too. And it's just a basic fact. You look Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC, the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. Actress Jennifer Aniston issuing a rare political statement, writing, I truly can't believe this is coming from a potential VP of the United States and Kamala Harris's stepdaughter getting into the mix, saying, how could you be childless when you have cutie pie? Kids like coal and I. I love my three parents. And when asked for response to the criticism over his comments, a spokesperson from the Vance campaign claims the words of Vance are being twisted and a representative of the Vance campaign provided us with a statement from Vance's sister in which she says, quote, JD was raised by some of the strongest women I know and went on to marry an incredibly strong woman in Usha. JD is a testament to the women in his life and the attacks from the media and Democrats that assume anything otherwise is vile. Erin. All right. Thank you very much, Sunlen.
