Vice President J.D. Vance just taught CBS journalist Margaret Brennan some big lessons. 

He did so, according to the Daily Mail, during the CBS's recent broadcast of Face the Nation. 

It was clearly designed to be one of the interviews in which the so-called journalist could "get" Vance with some "gotcha" questions.

But, as we will see, it was Vance who ended up getting Brennan. She was clearly no match for him.

"I don't really care"

This was Vance's first big interview since he entered the White House alongside President Donald Trump, and Vance quickly made it clear that he has not lost a step.

Brennan, at one point during the interview, attempted to get Vance with regard to the Trump administration's decision to suspend the Afghan Refugee Program. Vance, though, was not having any of it.

He, in part, said:

I don’t want my children to share a neighborhood with people who are not properly vetted, and because I don’t want it for my kids, I’m not going to force any other American citizen’s kids to do that either.

This seemed like a pretty reasonable position - one that most Americans would agree with - Brennan, however, tried to trap Vance. She tried to claim that some of the bad actors whom Vance was referring to may have been "radicalized" after entering the United States. If true, this would weaken Vance's argument that the Biden administration did not properly vet Afghan refugees.

Vance, however, shot back, "I don’t really care, Margaret. I don’t want that person in my country, and I think most Americans agree with me."

That's not all

Just about every exchange during the interview seemed to follow this pattern: Vance states a reasonable position on an issue, Brennan tries to assault this position, and Vance finishes the topic off by showing why Brennan's position is egregiously flawed.

One other example would be Brennan's attempt to suggest that the Trump administration can meet the economic promises that it has made.

She asked Vance when Americans will actually see grocery prices come down; what Trump executive order will actually get this result.

This led to an economics lesson from Vance.

He said:

How does bacon get to the grocery store? It comes on trucks that are fueled by diesel fuel. If the diesel is way too expensive, the bacon is going to become more expensive. How do we grow the bacon? Our farmers need energy to produce it. So if we lower energy prices, we are going to see lower prices for consumers, and that is what we're trying to fight for
