One thing’s for sure: JD Vance will be shit on and thrown under the bus.
That’s The Turmp Guarantee!
Vance seems like the kind of sleaze that would throw Trump under the bus too. Honestly I think it’s gonna come down to who gets the opportunity first. Its like a sith master and apprentice.
I didn’t really know anything about him until recently, but from what I’ve been reading, that’s spot on. He doesn’t have principles except whatever is expedient in the moment. He’s happy to fellate Trump now, but if there’s an opportunity to get more power for himself, he’s going to take it, regardless of Trump.
Trump’s VP pick is a Machiavellian sycophant with the integrity of a Boeing 747.
We can only hope. I’m more wary of the torch being passed on to him. Trump has a limited shelf life, but Vance is young.
And before the wave of “Trump doesn’t share power”, I know. I’m not talking about what Trump intends, I’m talking about all of Trumps powerful allies who want continued influence after Trump.
Trump will try to neuter Vance, for sure. But I have my doubts that he can pull it off.
What makes trump “work” - the con - on all these moronic shitheads is something Vance does not and will never possess. They may mutate it into some more overt crypto-fascist money cult, but they’ll never get the batshit dialed in to the sweet spot they have at the moment.
Over/under on how long it takes Vance to flip to the prosecution in some as-yet unknown future case against Trump?
Mike Pence is a milquetoast HIV enthusiast with the looks and personality of a Q-Tip but it didn’t deter the dimwits in 2016.
Conservative Christians / Evangelicals loved Pence. He was a big reason Trump was elected imo. I don’t think this new jabroni will help trump like pence did.
That’s good news, I hope so. They just seem to turn a blind eye to everything.
The vocal components are loud but don’t let them speak for everyone. Pence was a special candidate. He had a legitimate following. Vance might be able to get the GOP vote but he’s not getting the Christian vote like Pence was able to represent.
I’m not sure Trump needs that kind of supporting appeal this time around. He survived an assassination attempt - to his religious followers, that is divine providence.
I believe the new jabroni was chosen for entirely different reasons. There is a significant MAGA uprising going on in Silicon Valley, and Vance is well connected there. This is an inroad previously impassable for republicans…

And don’t believe his sob story about his mother, I looked into it… She was an RN who kept raiding the controlled substances cabinet, had nothing to do with “Mexicans forcing drugs on her”
Hahaha wtf is this
Are you a racist? Do you hate mexicans?
“Then come join us in the GOP”
Basically, like… How the hell did anyone greenlight this? I’m starting to think Vance is the GOP’s biggest weakness right now. Ya know his name wasn’t always Vance, he actually changed it because he had trauma associated with his previous name due to parental abuse.
And yet he wants to ban transpeople from changing THEIR names…
Hypocrite
I looked it up to see what his name originally was. I think he actually changed it twice, right?
James Donald Bowman
James David Hamel
James David Vance
I don’t even know what to say. It reminds me of the dumbass whitebread fascist version of Sally Struthers hawking “degrees” back in the 90s.
Vance doesn’t win any demographic that was lagging for Trump. Anyone who likes Vance was already voting Trump. Strategically on that alone, he’s a wasted pick. (I’m not complaining, don’t worry)
I heard somewhere he has connections to money that Trump needs for the campaign, so that might be what drove it.
It’s pretty clear Vance previously hated Trump. And it’s surprising Trump picked Vance after those comments, but when neither person has a moral compass to stick to, just like the rest of the party, overlooking those kinds of issues becomes much easier.
If Trump wins Vance is gonna have him killed so he can assume power. Terrible mistake for Trump. Maybe even worse for the every day person.
LOL. In the abstract, it’s pretty funny. (In reality it would not be funny at all.) I can imagine right after the election, “So long, sucker.” <blam>
No headline in the form of this one means shit about what will happen in reality. I don’t pay these any mind anymore.
