Vice President JD Vance has a knack for speaking common sense, and his recent speech at the National League of Cities only highlighted that increasingly rare talent.
“You go across the world and you see a very consistent relationship between a massive increase in immigration and a massive increase in housing prices, and we have to be honest about that,” Vance told the audience, before a heckler interrupted in an attempt to refute his point.
“I see one of our nice representatives out here wants to actually, I guess, continue to flood the country with illegal immigrants, making your communities and citizens unaffordable,” Vance shot back calmly.
“But ma’am, with all respect, one of the reasons why we’re doing what we’re doing is because we want to make it more affordable for Americans to live. That is one of the reasons why we’re doing what we’re doing,” he continued.
