Vice President JD Vance dished about the story behind viral photos of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) visit to the White House to discuss the looming government shutdown and Affordable Care Act subsidies.

Vance recounted how the “crazy” incident all got started when President Trump whispered to an aide at the start of the Oval Office sitdown to go grab some “MAGA Hats.

“She kind of runs off and I think to myself immediately, ‘Oh, what the hell have I gotten myself into?'” the vice president said, laughing. “And she comes back with two ‘Trump 2028’ hats to give to Jeffries.”
