Read previewSen. JD Vance, former President Donald Trump's running mate, is in the midst of yet another controversy: his association with Tucker Carlson.
Advertisement"Senator Vance doesn't believe in guilt-by-association cancel culture but he obviously does not share the views of the guest interviewed by Tucker Carlson," Vance spokesperson William Martin said in a statement.
AdvertisementHe went on to posit that British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was the "chief villain of the Second World War" and was responsible for escalating the conflict.
Alex Floyd, a spokesman for the Democratic National Committee, criticized Vance in a statement for declining to denounce Carlson.
"If you appear with Tucker Carlson, if you do an interview with him as JD Vance apparently has, you're endorsing him," Cheney said.
