'That was bonkers': Dem Shapiro pounces on 'pathetic' J.D. Vance's CNN meltdown

Moments after Republican Party Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance concluded a contentious interview with CNN "State of the Union": host Dana Bash, Gov. Josh Shapiro made an appearance and was momentarily speechless at what he had just witnessed.

During the long interview mostly centering on his attacks on Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio with the CNN host, Donald Trump's running mate talked over her, called a question about a bomb threat in Springfield "disgusting," and at one point told he she needed "to shut up."

Given a chance to respond to the Vance interview, Shapiro paused and then offered, "I mean, Dana, that was bonkers."

"Listen, the [Republican] governor of Ohio, the mayor of that town in Ohio, have said this is all made up. These are all lies, there's no truth to it," he continued. "And the United States senator from Ohio just came on your show and blamed his own constituents for his own lies? This guy is so pathetic."

"But the thing is, it is dangerous," he continued. "There is a causal connection between the BS that J.D Vance and Donald Trump spew and the safety and security of the American people. When they go out and they lie about this stuff they put their fellow Americans at risk."

"J.D. Vance should be ashamed of himself, he knows better," he added. "I mean, this guy, whether he's on your show or he's in some sports bar where I mean, by the way, a total pick me in that sports bar the other day. he just doesn't understand the power of his words, the power of his lies, and those lies are putting and people at risk."

"This is dangerous stuff," he told the host. "I know it started because they wanted to just distract the American people from their failed policies and they're chaos. But this has now taken on a life of its own because of what they incited and people's lives are at risk because of J.D. Vance. This guy should know better, it's shameful what he did."
