JD Vance’s new text about grocery costs has seemingly caught the attention of many. In it, he asked recipients not to donate if they were unable to. The message also included his name and a link to a fundraising page. This news comes a few days after he spoke about the affordability of buying homes for young people under Donald Trump’s administration.
JD Vance’s latest fundraising text contains a reference to grocery prices
Natalie Allison, a White House reporter for The Washington Post, took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a text that she claims she received from JD Vance. The screenshot showed the vice president telling the receiver of the message not to donate if they cannot afford it. The exact message read, “If you can’t give right now, don’t, Natalie. Groceries cost what they cost. But can you answer this for me?” The message contained his name and also a link to a page titled “A letter from JD Vance.”
The page also appeared to provide honest thoughts, stating, “I’m not going to make you feel guilty over a number.” The letter further reads that they are not hesitant to tell the truth, which they know not many will like to hear. It revealed that the Republican National Committee needs money. It remains unclear whether the communication around the groceries received was actually sent by Vance or not.
This comes amid JD Vance’s speech on the affordability of homes at a factory in his Appalachian hometown of Middletown, Ohio. He compared the costs during Trump’s and Joe Biden’s administrations. He said, “Under Joe Biden the cost of the median price home nearly doubled. Now for the first time in over five years, rents are falling for the first time. Got a lot of work to do but we are finally seeing that American dream of homeownership become accessible again to young people” (via Mediaite).
