Vance Reacts to Midterm Election Results
J.D. Vance blamed the war in Iran for the blue tsunami after the 2026 midterm elections.
Guiliani admitted that while he thinks Vance has some potential, he also thinks he has serious flaws.
One of these is his stance on the Iran war. Vance blamed the war for the blue tsunami in a post on X after the election.
“The real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone … The reason we lost is the war. The president himself said so last night,” Vance said at the time.

According to J.D. Vance, 'everyone knows' why Republicans lost the midterm elections.
“If you’d like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next 6 years was worth it, then do so," he asserted. "Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that’s at least honest."
“Everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there," Vance concluded.
According to Giuliani, it's beliefs like this that make him fear what could happen if Vance were in charge.

Rudy Giuliani said he sees 'certain dangers' in J.D. Vance's personality.
“I see presidential potential with you,” he explained. “I also see certain dangers in your personality that make you a dangerous possibility as president. Frankly, I look at some of your colleagues very superficially so far."
"Well, not Marco (Rubio) because I’ve known Marco since he was a kid, but even Ted Cruz. And I have my leanings," he noted. "I have for some time, but I’m not stupid enough to make up my mind now."

Rudy Giuliani says J.D. Vance's take on the Iran war makes him 'nervous.'
Giuliani continued, "So, it might be possible I support you, and you may want it or not want it. To me, it would be important who I support.”
“But it’s making me very, very nervous that a country is burning effigies of you, and your president, and your two envoys,” he argued, “threatening to kill them — not just episodically — but they’ve been threatening to kill them and all their predecessors for 48 years. And because we lost an election, you want to cave in.”
