Strassel\u2019s explosive July 16 column, titled \u201cPresident Vance Goes AWOL,\u201d accused JD Vance of abandoning Republicans at a critical juncture to promote his recently published memoir.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cCongress is crying out for a dedicated White House ambassador\u2014someone who can be trusted to speak for the president, to yea or nay ideas, to shuttle proposals, to wrangle rebels in line,\u201d she argued. \u201cMr. Vance is promoting a book.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The reliably right-wing columnist\u2019s take did not sit well with MAGA supporters, who hurled insults at Strassel on social media in the days that followed. Some took particular issue with what they described as Strassel\u2019s insensitivity to the birth of Vance\u2019s fourth child on Sunday morning. Others pointed out that prominent Republicans, including Mitch McConnell, have not been seen publicly in weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Legacy Media and the Left loved to jump up and down about parental leave. Except in this case,\u201d wrote podcast host Katie Miller, the wife of Trump\u2019s advisor Stephen Miller. What she failed to mention, however, is that the column was written days before Vance\u2019s son was born.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry, but pulling this obvious little stunt against J.D. Vance, whose wife just gave birth, when Mitch McConnell hasn\u2019t been seen in weeks is absolutely absurd,\u201d rightwing journalist Sean Davis wrote on X on Monday. \u201cWhat are we even doing here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another conservative influencer, John Konrad, also piled on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWait, hold the phone, the media is giving [Vance] hell for attending the birth of his child after praising [Pete Buttigieg] for disappearing for months to adopt a child?\u201d he wrote, referring to Buttigieg\u2019s two months of paternal leave while serving as secretary of transportation under former President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAm I the only person getting whiplash from all the reversals?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another X user, who identified as \u201cCookin Mama,\u201d called the column a \u201chit piece\u201d and slammed it as \u201cshameful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe man had to be with his wife, who had a baby! Give me a break!\u201d they wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Strassel, 53, hit back at the accusations on Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNice try. When Vance chose to blow off the GOP to go on Rogan\u2014and when this was written\u2014his wife was still expecting,\u201d she wrote on X. \u201cAnd as problematic as McConnell\u2019s absence is, there is a gulf between having to be admitted to the hospital for a health issue, and choosing to fly to Texas for a taping.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=3926\">Murdoch Paper Torches Trump\u2019s \u2018Raw Vindictiveness\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the vice president told the Daily Beast that Strassel\u2019s narrative is \u201cbulls&#8211;t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is factually inaccurate. Vice President Vance has been to the Capitol over two dozen times over the course of his tenure as Vice President, including as recently as Wednesday, which the Wall Street Journal and this rag outlet fail to acknowledge in order to fulfill their bulls&#8211;t fake narrative,\u201c a spokesperson said on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Vance\u2019s media blitz to promote his second book, <i>Communion<\/i>, about his conversion to Catholicism, kicked off with an appearance on <i>The View<\/i> on June 16. On June 19, NBC News reported that Vance \u201chad this week circled on his calendar for months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It came at a time when the now-defunct negotiations to end the war in Iran were in full swing. A framework deal was struck just as the book tour was about to begin. Sources close to the vice president told NBC News that he \u201ctreated the confluence of the Iran deal and his book release as a happy coincidence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Strassel wasn\u2019t buying it. \u201cLawmakers can count on a few fingers the times former Sen. Vance has set foot in the Capitol,\u201d she wrote, touching on Vance\u2019s role as president of the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cAs they twist in the legislative winds, they glimpse him mainly on his TV and podcast book tour\u2014Real Time With Bill Maher, CBS News Sunday Morning, Fox News, even ABC\u2019s The View. Or he\u2019s in Switzerland leading fruitless Iran negotiations. The anger has only grown over Mr. Vance\u2019s decision to position himself as scolder of the body over which he constitutionally presides, rather than showing up for the work.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The criticism comes as speculation over Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio\u2019s 2028 prospects heats up, White House officials told Politico on Monday. Trump himself frequently asks those close to him whom he should pass the baton to.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=3924\">Trump Goons\u2019 Creepy Bid to Spy on Reporter\u2019s Mom Exposed<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A conservative columnist at Rupert Murdoch\u2019s Wall Street Journal is facing backlash after criticizing the vice president.
