'At least be a normal person': J.D. Vance buried for fumbling softball question

On Friday morning, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, Jonathan Lemire and Katty Kay couldn't stop laughing at Sen. J.D. Vance's inability to answer a reporter's simple question about what makes him smile or be happy.

With Donald Trump's presidential campaign pushing back against accusations that it's bogged down with grievances and feelings of doom for America, Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign is being lauded for spreading hope and joy.

That led to 2024 GOP vice presidential nominee Vance to be asked about what makes him smile, to which he replied, "Well, I smile at a lot of things, including bogus questions from the media, Dan. I mean, look, I think if you watch, if you watch a full speech that I give, I actually, I’m having a good time out here, and I’m enjoying this."

"It wasn't a hard question," Scarborough told his laughing co-hosts as Kay suggested, "Anything normal."

"You have to know when to turn it off for a second and say, 'Yeah, kids, puppies..."

"Ohio State football!" Lemire joked.

"Ohio State football, yeah, Scarborough replied before adding, "Wearing the little techie vest that he likes to wear."

"Maybe he can't be the joyful warrior that we're seeing on the Democratic ticket, but you could at least be a normal person and, at least in that moment he very much did not," Lemire claimed.
