Sure! I managed @timryan's race and here are some of the biggest hits Team Ryan found, pitched and landed on @JDVance during the 2022 Ohio Senate race. 🧵
We did, admittedly, miss that he fucked a couch. Our bad.

Vance calling rape inconvenient washingtonpost.com/politics/vance…
Vance saying women should stay in violent marriages for the sake of their kids vice.com/en/article/jd-…
Vance created a fake nonprofit as an excuse to move back to Ohio and run for office, all it did was pay his political advisor and hired a spokeswoman for big pharma who says opioids aren't addictive apnews.com/article/2022-m…
We also bought the domain for his non-profit, gave it to the party and they forwarded to this website that our team helped them build ourohioripoff.com
Just about every bad thing you've heard Vance say about Trump came from our shop to reporters including helping his former roommate release texts of Vance calling Trump America's Hitler ohiocapitaljournal.com/2022/04/19/ame…
We can't take credit for landing the childless cat lady comment, @lizskalka broke that without us early in the gop primary in 2021 but we mocked him for it way back then

He actually has said a bunch of other things in that vein like people without kids are "sociopathic" that we couldn't get reporters to write about at the time but recently helped CNN report on

One of my favorite finds: Vance wrote a series of blog posts under the name "JD Hammel" in which he argued for a radically conservative set of policy ideas including massive cuts to social security yahoo.com/news/j-d-vance…
The clip of him saying he doesn't care what happens in Ukraine
Literally minutes after Vance won the primary (we waited until AP called and the hit send) we launched an ad with a clip of Vance calling America a joke
Followed that up with a spot on a Vance clip opposing... *Checks notes* bipartisanship
In this spot we used a clip of Vance defending bad trade deals and China
We broke that Vance called Alex Jones a truth teller, it was one of Tim's favorite bits on the stump along with the other cast of characters Vance sucked up to during the race
We found and landed a bunch of quotes from Vance that were the opposite of the persona he portrayed on the trail like him saying he "feels out of place in Ohio" lots of content from our campaign on it
This is by no means comprehensive but a good selection of what we found and threw at Vance to put Ohio in play, force McConnell to spend $40m and run 20 points ahead of the other statewide Dem on the ballot.
@TimRyan and I gave our thoughts on having run against Vance to politico and includes a link to the memo @hall_cb and I started circulating a week before Vance became the VP pick on how to define Vance politico.com/news/2024/07/1…
Shout to the best damn campaign team in all the land, immeasurably proud of the work y'all did -- special shout out to @Ms_Alex_W, @HonlStuenkel and Dan Flannigan for finding and @chevytothe_levy and @michbeyer for landing these hits.
This is what I get for not running my tweets by comms and research for approvals! More here:

I can't believe I forgot his two gem investments, the Russian propaganda website and the company being sued for lying to investors. So many hits.
