This JD Vance parody video goes as hard as possible

Poor JD Vance just can't seem to get a break this week. Because of his dislike of fact-checking in the debates and his non-consensual vitriol, he's having a really hard time. But he's also the center of attention, which is probably the only reason anyone with no political experience would even want to enter this race. So can he really complain if everyone continues to call him trash?

Whatever Vance may feel about the issue, everyone else is doing just fine dragging their feet before Christmas, and there's no sign of it slowing down either. Last night on Jimmy Kimmel, the late night host beat SNL by casting Sixth sense Actress Haley Joel Osment plays Vance in a parody short film. The result? A modern masterpiece.

Osment took on Vance's famous inability to be normal in a public setting and embodied the Harvard madman to a T. Wearing the vice president's signature tightliner and dark blue suit, Osment ripped apart Vance in the skit in which he attempts to order a donut and fails miserably on multiple occasions.

“They want you to think I can’t order a plain nut,” Osment says before entering a donut shop, where he asks “whatever makes sense” and also asks that they “keep the pickles “. Things escalate and eventually Osment utters perhaps the most Vancian line we've ever heard: “I smell a pregnant woman.”

It's the performance of a lifetime, and Haley Joel Osment has delivered quite a few in his storied career.

People have manifested it, and the casting powers that be at SNL are probably giving themselves a hard time right now.

Obviously Bowen Yang is already doing great work, but imagine what havoc SNL could create with TWO Vances!

People call it a masterpiece, and they're right. Making “Jimmy Kimmel Live” funny, interesting or relevant is no easy task, but Osment delivered on all three.

Just don't say this terribly stressful election season didn't do us any good!
