Speaking aboard Air Force Two, Vice President JD Vance clarified on Monday that his official posture toward Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s reelection campaign is a rigid, unyielding commitment to not knowing what to say.
During an interview on the 2WAY Tonight program with Mark Halperin, Vance deployed the administration’s latest talking points to ensure his complete lack of involvement did not inadvertently contradict President Donald Trump’s full, on-the-record endorsement of the Israeli leader earlier that afternoon.
"I’m not anti-endorsing him. I’m not pro-endorsing him," Vance stated, outlining a newly developed geopolitical framework in which the Vice President of the United States voluntarily ceases higher cognitive function when asked a direct question about a foreign ally.
According to sources close to leadership, the unprecedented "not pro-endorsing" maneuver was hastily developed to help Vance navigate the political reality of having an independent thought without written permission from the Oval Office.
The Vice President has worked tirelessly to construct a rhetorical void so dense that no actual stance can escape it.
A senior aide later clarified on background that Vance is prepared to aggressively escalate his neutrality to a full "not anti-not-endorsing" posture should anyone attempt to ask him about the Middle East again.
