What JD Vance did here was not only turn Trump's attack into a positive thing, but he also framed the issue as a populist "people against the powerful" theme that puts much of the political establishment of both parties in the "enemy forces" column. Yes, Pelosi is vile, but she had a lot of help from both party establishments in opening our borders for the sake of cheap labor, sending our industry to an enemy country for cheap imports, and fighting all attempts to strengthen the American working class.
