TYT Reacts To J.D. Vance's Acceptance Speech at RNC

***

The largest online progressive news show in the world. Hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian. LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET.

The Young Turks are fearless in talking about the issues that matter. We are a rare show that combines all of the news that people care about in one place. We cover politics, entertainment, sports, and pop culture; all through a progressive lens.

What does it mean to be a “Young Turk?”

According to the American Heritage Dictionary;
1. Young progressive or insurgent member of an institution, movement, or political party.
2. Young person who rebels against authority or societal expectations.

"Sharp-witted, persuasive, and inspiring, calling out toxic Republicans, politely-ineffectual Democrats, and mealy-mouthed media mavens in equal measure, JUSTICE IS COMING will give heart to Democrats and progressives who seek to change our politics and society for the better.

The media can’t stop talking about the gridlock in Washington, as if a handful of stubborn Republicans are the only thing standing between us and a fully-functional democracy. The reality is that our government has been taken over by big business and their allies in both political parties. The getaway driver in this heist was corporate media. The good news is that the American people are very progressive. And soon progressives will take over Washington as well! And when they do, the great majority of Americans will love it.

In JUSTICE IS COMING: How Progressives Are Going to Take Over the Country and America Is Going to Love It (On sale: September 19, 2023), The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur presents two ideas that counter everything we hear from pundits and politicians on a daily basis: one, progressives are correct on all issues, and two, America is actually a very progressive country. Millions of us know that we are a part of something larger, a movement that is already transforming Washington.

JUSTICE IS COMING, a compulsively readable manifesto, seeks to apply the momentum progressives have already built to a concrete progressive agenda that activists, voters, and citizens can all rally around. JUSTICE IS COMING looks beyond Trump to the larger historical forces that have given us this unique political moment, and explains why we should fight, how we should fight, and how we will win."

Trump made a solid pick with this one. Vance has quite the resume and he’s only 39. He served our country in Iraq as a Marine, went to Ohio State University, then Yale Law School, huge bestseller with Hillbilly Elegy, then US Senator. He came from humble beginnings and it shows. Well done!

[estebanmiguel]

The republicans party has changed for the better. You know they’re on the right track when most blue collar workers, truckers, ranchers, farmers, veterans and active duty servicemen support them. JD is a beautiful soul.

Cenk... I looked up the workers wages data, and, you're wrong. Now, if you wanted to make any criticisms you could say that the down turn did begin just before Biden took office in 2020 but Biden was not able to halt its free fall in his first year and never came close to reaching the high seen during the Trump Presidency.

Now, that's just one single metric, and there is certainly even more data that can be teased out of it, but to say that the big explosion of workers wages occurred during the Biden Presidency is just patently false. So calling Vance a liar for that damages your credibility in my eyes, and im sure many others.

The Republican Party is changing and honestly, im here for it. If the best the DNC can offer us is a Biden/Harris ticket that promotes war & poverty, im over it.

[sarahmorrisette]

TYT and Dems are seething with jealousy that this candidate is STRONG, young, relevant, and making sense. Sad era to be a Liberal. Looking forward to a Trump/Vance Presidency.

Most people I know liked jd Vance speech. I think his speech was very relatable for people not watching politics 24/7. I think the analyst are too absorbed in politics; this speech wasn’t for them. It was for the infrequent politics watchers to win them over and I think it was perfect for that

[bendaud]

Cenk should shut up for once and hear the speech with a open mind.

[FranklinSalazar-us]

Cenk is complaining about the old Republican party. JD Vance is the beginning of the transformation of the Republican party. JD Vance is akin to Eugene McCarthy.

[willman]

JD has an amazing story. HILLBILLY ELEGY is worth a read or watch the movie. No politicians are perfect. The system isn't perfect.

[jnatural]

Ann Coulter told Vivek to his face why she wouldn't vote for him. Imagine the "Replacement Theory" folks having a meltdown when they saw Vance's wife.

[niltomega]

Meanwhile the Democrat Clown Car is stuck in a loop with biden at the wheel...lol

[mgreene]

Yes I’m sure 20 million plus immigrants has zero effect on housing

[chrisv]

Harris's parents were a college professor and her mom was a scientist. She wasn't that poor.

[pepperjack]

Trump took a pew pew, Biden can't take the stairs😂

[joyfultrails]

To outshine Harris, all he had to do was be coherent 😂

[TheTexasTodd]

I’m never Trump but something about Vance’s story really pulled me in.

[dobs]

Damn they cant call Vance racist cause of his wife .

[imagine]

Notice how the republicans didn’t clap when his wife spoke LMAO they don’t like her 😂
