“When his speech was a stupid campaign speech,” he added.
What made the moment even more intriguing was that Vance then turned to Johnson and said, “Man, I’ve got to be honest…” before leaning in close and whispering something into the speaker’s ear—effectively hiding whatever juicy detail he was about to reveal.
Meanwhile, this latest controversy unfolds as a viral video has been circulating on social media, showing Vance harshly criticizing Trump in the past.
The TikTok clip begins with a recent interview from the RNC in July, where Vance confidently states, “I will be a vice president that never forgets where he came from.”
Then, the screen fades to black, with an ominous caption appearing: “Weird. Here’s where JD Vance came from.”
What follows is a montage of older footage, including a clip of a younger, clean-shaven Vance bluntly admitting, “I never liked him.”

Another clip shows the father of three admitting before a previous election, “I don’t know who I’m going to vote for—I’m definitely not going to vote for Trump.”
In a third recording, he confesses, “My current plan is to vote either third-party or, as I joke to my wife, I might write in my dog.” A fourth clip captures him saying, “What Trump is, is just another opioid.”
A radio segment later features the now-vice president openly admitting, “I can’t stomach Trump. I think that he’s obnoxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.”
