JD Vance says 'yes' Trump won in 2020 then walks away when asked 'will you concede?'
U.S. Senator JD Vance, less than 48 hours after refusing to correctly answer when asked if Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election, faced the question again on Thursday — but this time instead of evading he answered it directly: “Yes,” the vice presidential nominee lied.
“Who won the 2020 election? Just answer — did Donald Trump win?” asked Jason Selvig, half of the political comedy duo “The Good Liars,” who frequently troll conservatives in videos that go viral.
“Yes,” Vance replied, strongly.
“He did win?” Selvig asked again, seemingly to confirm Vance’s response.
“Yup,” the Ohio Senator stated.

“So will you, will you concede, if your opponent gets more votes, will you concede?” Selvig pressed.
“I really feel bad for you man,” Vance appeared to say, as he turned into what appeared to be a hotel conference room, ducking Selvig and his camera. “I just want to know, if your opponent gets more votes, will you concede?”
“Completely disqualifying,” is how political scientist David Darmofal described Vance’s lie Donald Trump won the 2020 election.
“As this moment shows,” remarked attorney David R. Lurie, “Vance’s now confirmed status as an opponent of democracy is not going to be something he can quip away during the weeks before the election.”

Near the end of Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate, Vance’s Democratic opponent, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, asked what became a historic question that was called it the “only moment from the VP debate that mattered.”
“Did he lose the 2020 election?” Walz asked Vance.
“Tim,” Vance replied, “I’m focused on the future.”
The Harris campaign quickly turned that into an ad which quickly went viral:
