On May 31, 2024, Senator J.D. Vance and CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer engaged in a heated exchange during a CNN appearance. Blitzer challenged Vance to explain how Republicans can call themselves 'the party of law and order' when their presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump, was recently convicted on 34 felony charges. Vance, a former United States Marine Corps member, expressed his outrage at the proceedings and defended Trump's criticism of the U.S., which Trump referred to as a 'fascist state.' Vance repeatedly deflected Blitzer's questions about whether the U.S. is a fascist state.
