Shots, prayers and the Donald in the heart: a public viewing of the TV duel between vice presidential candidates Vance and Walz – in the gun shop.
Perhaps it is an apt image for this country, for these times and this party that this event has to take place in this place of all places. The pistol shots are still ringing dully from the shooting range into the hall when the TV duel between the vice-presidential candidates begins. The local Republican leader has just uttered a prayer in front of around 400 people and a dozen stuffed deer heads: “Dear God, give JD Vance the power of words so that he can win and, together with Donald Trump, save America.”
