Jimmy Fallon lists all the things polling higher than JD Vance: Lice outbreak emails and sun-warmed egg salad
Jimmy Fallonhas poked fun at JD Vance’s low pollings by reeling off a list of all the things that are more popular than Donald Trump’s chosen running mate – from “lice outbreak emails” to a “sun-warmed egg salad”.

Trump announced earlier this month that he had chosen the Ohio senator as his vice presidential pick to join him on the Republican ticket in November.
But, since then, Vance has not been doing so well in the polls.
In a poll analysis by CNN, Vance was found to be the first non-incumbent, vice presidential pick since 1980 to have a net-negative rating following a party convention.
CNN’s senior political data reporter Harry Enten stated that Vance is currently “making history in the completely wrong way.”
He explained that since 2000, vice presidential nominees usually, on average, have a net-positive rating immediately after the RNC, at plus 19 points in favorability.
However, Vance has seen his net favorable rating plunge to minus six points after he was declared as Trump’s running mate and joined Trump on the campaign trial.
The Republican vice presidential candidateis also facing backlash for his sexist comments which resurfaced this week of him attacking Kamala Harris and other
