JD Vance accuses Tim Ryan of using 'canned lines' in Ohio debate: 'Pretty pathetic'

foxnews.com:

Ohio Republican Senate candidate JD Vance accused Democratic opponent Rep.Timothy Ryan of using "canned" responses and not addressing the substance of the moderators' questions during Monday's debate on "The Story" Tuesday Vance, a venture capitalist whose impoverished upbringing was recently explored in his memoir-turned-Ron Howard film "Hillbilly Elegy", claimed onFox News that Ryan has grown complacent in his 20 years in office. "The thing I really enjoyed about [the debate] was just that it was very clear that [Ryan] had a few particular canned lines," Vance told host Martha MacCallum.  "He had a few particular talking points, but he couldn't actually address the substance of almost any question.

And I think it's pretty pathetic that after 20 years, the guy just doesn't care about the details of public policy."

During the debate, Vance repeatedly tried to contrast Ryan's term in the House with the elapsed economic downturn and employment outsourcing in his blue-collar district near the Pennsylvania border.

He also argued Ryan voted in line with President Biden nearly "100 percent of the time." When Ryan brought up Vance's pro-life stance, the Republican shot back that the congressman's opposition to border wall funding could have prevented an illegal immigrant from raping an Ohio child who made national news for having to leave the state in order to legally have an abortion.
