Vance Warns Democrats Would Trigger 2 Years of Investigations as GOP Chants ‘48’

Summary
Vance told a Republican event Democrats would “bury the American people in investigations” for the next two years if they win, urging the party to nationalize the election around Democratic actions.
Prescription drug prices were his main policy focus, with Vance calling Trump’s executive actions the GOP’s broadest popular issue as Republicans look to blunt Democratic attacks on health care.
2028 buzz still hung over the event: attendees chanted “48,” and House GOP Whip Tom Emmer said “the stars are the limit” for the vice president, though Vance avoided discussing a presidential run.
Trump’s separate promise of a $5,000 dividend for every American adult if Republicans win Congress went unmentioned in Vance’s speech, even after he defended the idea on Fox News and suggested income limits.
