VP Vance speech at Marine Corps Base Quantico; Slams DEI

Marine Veteran and US Vice President JD Vance spoke about the military at his visit to Marine Corps Base Quantico. Around the 3:37 mark, he says:

“Under President Trump’s leadership, we believe in a very simple principle: we don’t care who you are, where you came from, we don’t care what skin color you are.

We care about excellence and we care about patriotism.

If you are awesome and you are a patriotic young Marine, then we are going to do everything that we can to make you the most lethal fighting force the world has ever seen.

That is what we’re doing every single day.

No more quotas, no more ridiculous mumbo jumbo, no more diversity trainings.

We believe the real strength and the real diversity in the United States Marine Corps is that you all come from every walk of life, come from every corner of America, and you have got the strength and the purpose to win the nation’s wars.

And that is what the Marine Corps is going to do, just like it’s done for damn near 250 years now.”

He also talks about the increase in recruitments in all services.

Watch:

The United States is strong thanks to the strength of our Armed Forces.

President Trump and I want excellence in America’s military, and we are going to make sure our Marines are the best, most lethal fighting force in the world 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/sCPVFWpby2
