J.D. Vance Attacks Kamala Harris, Defends Soda Consumption in First Solo Campaign Rally
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When J.D. Vance took to the stage at the Middletown, Ohio, rally, he
repeatedly attacked Kamala Harris and went on a tangent about diet
Mountain Dew.

Sen. J.D. Vance: "It is the weirdest thing to me. Democrats say that it
is racist to believe - well, they say it's racist to do anything. I had
a diet Mountain Dew yesterday and one today. I'm sure they're going to
call that racist, too. But it's good."
