A Dramatic Reading of JD Vance’s Awful Book
Summary
<div>
<p>Tim Miller and JVL attempt to read JD Vance’s new memoir 'Communion' and discover a book full of contradictions, self-owns, political rationalizations, and some very revealing clues about the vice president’s worldview.</p><p>Buy Vance's new book (or don't!): <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GTQ68YZN">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GTQ68YZN</a></p><p>CORRECTION: Talking about a Catholic bookstore in Washington, D.C., on K Street, JVL says it was “Pauline Book Center.” This is wrong. JVL was referring to the Catholic Information Center on K Street. There is another Catholic hub, across the river on King Street in Alexandria, Virginia, called Pauline Books. JVL's stupid brain mushed them together. He regrets the error.</p></div>
