Back in 2024, during a Supreme Court debate, George Stephanopoulos did the same as he did yesterday and abruptly cut to commercial and muted JD Vance’s mic. There seems to be a pattern when George is left speechless and losing a debate on live TV.

Never forget, he's a paid operative.

If I were Trump I wouldn’t allow any member of his administration back on ABC and I’d ban em from the press pool and sue George again for good measure. MSM is dead. Allowing them in the press pool is dumb.

JD Vance is going to make an awesome President.

Fake News Exposed! George Stephanopoulos' pattern of muting JD Vance when the facts hit hard—first in 2024's Supreme Court debate, now dodging shutdown talk—is blatant bias. They should be held accountable for rigging airwaves. Time for real journalism! #FakeNewsABC #MAGA 🇺🇸

The Trump administration should stop doing interviews with ABC. Give every other mainstream news company access, but cut ABC off.

George was right. Vance pointedly never answered the question. If this story came out with a Democrat taking a bag of money, Republicans would be talking about it for weeks and demanding the death penalty. Republican corruption? 🦗🦗🦗

George Stephanopoulos is turning into the bandito of ABC. How many more millions are they willing to lose in defamation lawsuits simply because of political bias. Because to Georgie, "Facts, we need no stinking facts!"

Benny, Vance refused to answer a simple yes/no question. Instead he insulted George and the program. George asked him the same yes/no question, and Vance started his answer with, "The Democrats..." George was done with the lying and gaslighting. Why couldn't Vance answer the ?

This is definitely the only way they can handle @JDVance - because he's too articulate and too smart to fall for their shenanigans. So the only real move they have is to silence him when he makes them look stupid.

There seems to be a pattern fake Christian

Vance was not answering in good faith.

The pattern that I see is..... Nobody should ever listen to Benny Johnson!

If an itchy asshole had a face

I seriously thought he was leaving the US because of Trump the first time. Why didn’t he leave? 🤦🏼‍♀️

@hepler10112 George Stephanopoulos is just another Democratic pawn. He will never admit anyone from the GOP is correct. He fits well with the woke leftist @WaltDisneyCo @ABCNetwork Surprised he hasn’t accepted a spot on the delusional The View. As he fits right in.

#FAFO JD Vance is not good at what he does. If you continue to lie, you shouldn’t have a platform.

Job well done by Stephanopoulos for putting an end to the bullshit no chance Vance was spewing. Bravo 👏

I’m glad I stopped watching Good Morning America not too long ago and This Week just now! Georgie is an extremely leftie and what he did yesterday to Vance was unacceptable…. This is the VP of the United States! Georgie should be fired immediately… @ThisWeekABC @GMA @FCC @BrendanCarrFCC

Little Georgie can't handle the heat. He should have been fired a long time ago.

@Elahg2 Doesn’t abc have a public broadcasting license? This kind of blatant manipulation seems like it isn’t in the public’s best interest?

Cutting JD Vance’s mic mid debate undermines fair discourse and transparency, suggesting bias rather than neutral moderation, and leaves viewers questioning the integrity of live political debates.

Why does Vance go on these outdated, untrustworthy, lying, scheming outlets? Boycott them all!

Hence, the hilarious nickname given by the GOAT President Mr. TRUMP, "Slopadopalous". He's sloppy, arrogant, and stupid.

This is why their ratings are shit.

Nope. There is a pattern of arrogance and deflection in JD Vance not answering questions.

Didn't the president at the time even fire General Douglas MacArthur back in World War II days?

Stephi was the #2 domestic policy advisor in the Clinton WH. When does Karl Rove or Stephen Miller get to play straight news journalist on a broadcast channel?

@ABCNetwork I quit watching years ago -- convinced my children to stop as well -- horrible representation of the "news"

When magicians shout "look over there!" they're usually hiding something. When admins do it, they're hiding FBI tapes of cash-stuffed takeout bags. The FBI surveillance recording from September 2024 shows Homan accepting $50k for contract promises - confirmed by DOJ docs and multiple sources. Yet Vance spent 5 minutes deflecting to Schumer instead of answering Stephanopoulos' direct question. House Democrats demanded release of all evidence on September 23, 2025, calling it a "brazen cover-up." Admin's playbook: attack media credibility while burying documented corruption. Accountability shouldn't require commercial breaks.
