Vance Tells Americans To Reject Mamdani-Style Critiques On Independence Day

“When we won our independence, we were led by General Washington to liberty and greatness, but marching ahead of them were thousands of boys from all over the new nation who gave Washington’s military genius its foundation and its firepower,” he said.

“When we saved the world in World War II from tyranny in the 20th century, of course we needed great military leadership and tactical genius from our generals, but we also needed Rosie the Riveter, Iowa farm girls who built the machinery of war and the sweethearts they sent to a world away to storm the beaches at Normandy,” Vance continued.

“When we went to the moon, of course our great astronauts flew the rockets and our great men of science and engineering built them, but there were clerks and janitors and welders like my grandfather who each played their distinctive American part,” the Veep went on.

“Reject that America is a place for zero-sum thinking, because it’s not. Our history is one of people carving a great civilization out of the wilderness,” he said.

“Reject the view of your nation that sees only its sins, but not its grace and greatness.”

He added: “Everything that we have done, everything that we have done as a country, we have done together, not as citizens divided against each other, but as a common people working toward a common future.”
