Authored by ibtimes.com

After vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance made a stop in Georgia to talk border security and immigration, he stopped at a donut shop with his campaign crew and members of the press only to be met with unimpressed employees.

The clip of him visiting the shop begins by thanking an employee for letting the "zoo" come into the store.

When he doesn't get much of a reaction, he asks his team for help deciding how many donuts to get.

When he doesn't get a response, Vance turns to his other side and asks someone else, "How many donuts do you think we need to get?".
