He seems 25. There's a reason we've never had a 25yr old in Congress before.

sorry, maybe at 18 you cut a guy some slack. at 25 and a congressman you should know not to drive without a license, carrying a gun into an airport and not insider trading
those are all tyrannical laws. just more oppressive government oversight.
Exactly, victimless crimes all!

I'm not saying he shouldn't face consequences. I'm saying stupid behavior in your 20s isn't indicative of your intelligence.

Being 25 also doesn't excuse his being a sexual predator.

A 25 year old is fully an adult and should 100% know right from wrong.

Man, you guys were a lot more responsible than I was at 25. Stupid choices like driving on a suspended license and trying to carry a gun through security were right in line with the kind of choices I sometimes made.

Would you say he has shaken your long held belief that Grand Old Politicians have nothing but the best for their constituents’ well-being as their first and only priority in the great state of North Carolina?

Let's reserve judgement until the absolute psycho that got appointed as head of the ministry of disinformation has had a look at the video.

I feel like there’s a little bit of a (moral) grace period from 18-25, but once you’re 25 that’s it man. No excuses.

Blackmail is a hard gig in today's politics. Can you imagine what it would take for someone to actually turn on their favorite politician?

Entirely re-inventing himself worked for the primary at least. We'll have to hear more about his positions on exotic animal ownership to know who is the favorite in the general.

Just listened to an interview with Vance. He sounds like a reasonable direction for the GOP. Thought leader and anti-woke. Appeals to a lot of the working class sect of Trumpism.

Sounds like I'm trolling but I'm not.
