@unclemark I heard his interview on one of the NPR shows. I thought he did well. I also thought the host was really unfair. Basically just found half a dozen different ways to say, "Yeah, but how can you justify saying all this stuff if you don't hate Trump?"
LOL. I'd guess Jenn White, but I've listened been subjected to all her stuff and don't believe it was her. She would have had a race or gender angle to pursue.
He's smart enough not to admit hating Trump, but there's no doubt in my mind he does. His disdain comes through loud and clear.

Def not Jenn White. I would have remembered it was her. She's impossible to mistake for anyone else. Thankfully, my current travel schedule has me out of the vehicle whenever she's on.

To the substance, his repeated answer was basically "Yeah, we disagree on a lot, and this is one of those things we disagree on. I think it's best to be civil. He doesn't. It's okay that we disagree."
I mean, yeah, obviously on a topic like this, the conclusion is that he's not exactly spelling out his true feelings. But he didn't avoid the question. He just answered it. Repeatedly.
@zeke4ahs I think Vance and Rubio are both similarly ill suited for the challenges we're facing, right now. But both are markedly better than what we've had since Obama. If Trump is allowed to play the Kingmaker role... then he'll choose whichever of these fellas kisses his diapered rear end the most over the next 18 months. And I suspect that's going to become an increasingly difficult job. There's selling your soul... and there's burning your soul to the ground and pissing on the ashes. That's probably what it will take to get Trump's backing and endorsement, because when the Dems take Congress, he's going to become an even bigger lunatic than he already is.
One of my bigger worries is what that rhetoric, from both of them and from Trump, will do to the Democratic primary voting base. Because as much as I despise Trump... we just can't have an AOC or Harris type of candidate on the other side this time. Obviously in my opinion.
