After his VP debate, JD Vance went fishing with a pro-Trump trophy hunter group that publishes kills of endangered animals including pygmy hippos like Moo Deng, the adorable and feisty pygmy hippo baby that has gone viral across the internet.
The pro-trophy hunting group, Safari Club International (SCI), organized a fishing trip for Vance in Michigan before recording an interview for the MAGA Republican Ruthless podcast.
Phony weirdoJD had this to say about the group:
“I think something that people don’t fully appreciate, especially far lefties who pretend to care about the environment, is they assume that these guys just want to take, take, take from the environment. Like they want to kill every animal. They want to get every fish out of the lake and they want to take them home and they don’t think about conservation. When in reality the people who are hunting and fishing they care the most about conservation. They care about the balance I think more than people who never spend any real time in the environment.”
He is lying. These people may want to keep fish in the lake but they make big bucks taking people on safaris to kill endangered and threatened species:
Vance’s statement attempts to paint his political opponents as extreme and the trophy hunters he is cozying up to as as conservationists. Meanwhile, SCI maintains hunting records for endangered animals including the pygmy hippo. SCI’s record books rank these kills and provides a high score dashboard for trophy hunters.
This does not surprise me considering that JD Vance is super close to Don Jr and Eric, both of whom are big trophy hunters
Various photos show the brothers flanking a crocodile hanging from a tree, smiling behind the horns of a killed waterbuck, and standing together as Eric held a dead leopard. Donald Trump Jr. was pictured sitting next to a dead buffalo while holding a gun and wearing an ammunition belt, and Eric Trump can be seen sitting on one of the dead animals with guns resting on its horns.
The Trump brothers were not pictured with any dead lions in 2012, but Donald Trump Jr. was pictured next to a dead elephant while holding its severed tail.
JD just wanted to say that environmentalists are all a bunch of citified wimps who don’t know how to be real men. It’s typical of him. But these people are monsters and they really do want to destroy the planet with policies that will pretty much kill it. And that includes the fish and game they say they want to preserve so they can kill them.
