Vice President JD Vance offered an unfiltered assessment Thursday of some of the biggest names in politics in a rapid-fire TikTok, calling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., a “communist,” Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., “lame” and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani “crazy.”
The vice president was asked to describe a succession of Democrats, Trump administration officials and other political figures as their names flashed across a screen, producing a 30-second barrage of answers that ranged from complimentary to cutting.
Vance appeared particularly unimpressed with far-left Democrats. He described Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer as “cranky” and Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed as “odd.”

But one of Vance’s most dismissive assessments was saved for Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.
“I mean, nothing,” Vance said when Schiff’s name appeared. “Irrelevant.”
Vance was considerably more complimentary when members of the Trump administration came across the screen, describing outgoing White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt as “awesome,” deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller as “hardcore” and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles as “tough.”
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was “interesting,” while Vance called Secretary of State Marco Rubio “funny” and House Speaker Mike Johnson “kind.”

One name, however, left the usually sharp vice president unusually short on words.
When Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) leader Megan Romer appeared, Vance simply responded, “No comment.”
The video then cuts to a SpongeBob-style title card declaring “two minutes later” before returning for Vance’s assessment of Schiff.
President Donald Trump received a much warmer review from his second-in-command.

“Generous,” Vance said of the president.
The video offered a lighter glimpse at Vance’s relationships with figures inside the administration while also giving him an opportunity to take shots at several prominent far-left Democrats and self-described democratic socialists.
