Vice President JD Vance also mocked liberals because he had created a hysteria around the American Eagle campaign, and said about an episode of the “Renual” podcast: “My political advice to the Democrats is still that Sydney Sweeney is attractive for a Nazi. That seems to be her actual strategy.”
Vance continued: “I mean, it actually reveals something pretty interesting about the Dems, namely, like a normal, all-American girl who acts like a normal jeans display, right? [Democrats] Could take, we're going to be less crazy. And the lesson that apparently took is that we humans attack as Nazis because they think Sydney Sweeney is beautiful. ”
