Seth Meyers Hits JD Vance With A Blistering Comparison To 1 Other Republican

"Has any public figure ever been more off-putting than JD Vance?" the "Late Night" host wondered.

Seth Meyers says Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has been outdone. 

Man, has any public figure ever been more off-putting than JD Vance? the Late Night comedian wondered on Thursday night, as he slammed former President Donald Trump s running mate for knowingly perpetuating  lies about Haitian immigrants Springfield, Ohio.

I didnt think anyone could ever out-Cruz Ted Cruz, but this son of a bitch did it. Hes Ted Cruz 2.0: less nasal, more eyeliner, he added.

Vance, a U.S. senator from Ohio, said during a rally in Wisconsin on Tuesday that the media has a responsibility to fact-check claims , not him. Despite a mountain of media fact checks debunking his false claim that Haitians are eating peoples pets, hes continued to push the lie anyway.

You dont get to just lie and then tell everyone else its their job to fact-check your BS, Meyers said.

Vance, like Cruz, is a former Trump critic-turned-sycophant. He once wondered if Trump could be Americas Hitler, but took back his criticism when he entered Republican politics with his 2021 Senate bid.
