Here Come the Karens! LA’s Mayor Has a Fit Over JD Vance’s Trolling of Senator What’s-His-Name – Twitchy

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is doing her best Greta Thunberg impression by screeching ‘How dare you!’ at Vice President JD Vance. Her over-the-top ‘outrage’ stems from Vance calling Senator Alex Padilla ‘José’ earlier on Friday.

Enjoy the theatrics. (WATCH)

🚨 JUST IN: Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass throws an absolute FIT after JD Vance calls Alex Padilla “Jose” 🤣

If only she was this angry about illegals BURNING DOWN her city.

Bass should be removed from office. pic.twitter.com/67SMyy3qU3

Karen Bass lives up to her first name.

Even Karens across the globe want to disown this one.

Kicked out of Karens Club International!

Here’s the video Bass is freaking out about. (WATCH)

🚨 OMG 🤣🤣

JD Vance: “I was hoping [Senator] Jose Padilla would be here to ask a question…I guess he decided to not show up because it wasn’t the theater.”

The left is LOSING it over this right now.

Vance and his team are doing some epic trolling.

When asked about the name mixup, his press secretary said he had confused Senator Padilla with terrorist José Padilla. Ouch!

NEW: @VPPressSec responds to @JDVance mistakenly referring to the recently detained and handcuffed Sen. Alex Padilla as Jose Padilla….☠️🤣 pic.twitter.com/J9eHedINMq

Vance possibly confused Alex Padilla with Al-Qeada operative Jose Padilla. Considering the way Democrats are acting these days, is it any wonder why JD would confuse the Senator with a terrorist? pic.twitter.com/NndKh9nYts

Jose Padilla went to jail, Alex Padilla should have. Easy to confuse the first names. Honest mistake.

We see how Vance confused the two.

Commenters are laughing at Bass and the other Democrats who are losing their minds over this, especially considering the names they’ve called President Donald Trump over the last decade.

Interesting to hear Karen Bass treat the name “Jose” like the worst insult ever imagined 😏 pic.twitter.com/gwbd3XylHA

I think it’s hilarious that this woman is throwing a fit over this. JD Vance calling some nobody the wrong name, on purpose or not. But was awfully silent when Joe Biden called one of his high ranking officers, “That Black guy”.

Correct, Vance has better things to worry about.

The Democrats keep trying to make this guy a thing, but no one cares. We’ll probably forget his name by the end of this article.

TBH I thought his name was Jose too

Nobody knows who the hell this clown is 🤣

His 15 minutes is up.

Hopefully, this is the last we hear about Senator Alice Tortilla.
