“Your running mate, J.D. Vance, has said that you would veto [an abortion ban] if it did come to your desk,” said ABC News anchor Linsey Davis, referring to Vance’s statement last month that Trump “explicitly” told him that he would veto a federal abortion ban.
“Well I didn’t discuss it with J.D., in all fairness. And I don’t mind if he has a certain view, but I don’t think he was speaking for me,” Trump said on the debate stage, before stumbling through the rest of his words. “We don’t have to discuss it.”
When JD Vance says that Trump “‘explicitly’ told him that he [Trump] would veto a federal abortion ban”, I believe JD Vance. Whatever was happening in the room at the time, Trump thought that that statement would be most beneficial to him personally in that moment. When Trump said the opposite thing in the debate, it’s because he thought that would be most beneficial to him personally in that moment.
The only thing that matters to Trump is what he thinks is best for him personally right now. Ethics are irrelevant. Legality is irrelevant. Continuity is irrelevant. Reality is irrelevant. He does not remember the past and he cannot conceive of the future. “Me, now” is the only thing that matters to him. There is no big picture. His entire universe is a singularity of “me, now.”

Best summary of Trump I’ve read yet.
I believe Trump when he said that he never discussed that with Vance.
It was actually John Barron!
That’s right, baby! The Barron is back and more senile than ever and he’s speaking exclusively to J.D. Vance.
^Good God, I fucking hate that this joke could be real^
They’re different people and totally don’t have two 2 other family members’ names, including his alter ego, Donnie “Johnny” Trump
“So, Mr. Barron-”
“No, I’ve told you so many times, Baron is my son.”
“Wait, are you saying that you’re actually Donald Trump?”
“No, no, of course not. I’m John Miller. Definitely not Trump. Never even met Trump.”
“Okaaaayyyy… Mr. Miller-”
“You don’t have to be so formal. Please, just call me President Trump.”
I can explain it. Everyone is expendable to Donald Trump. This includes our country.
Cause Trump is incapable of admitting fault. He wanted his supporters to kill his last VP because Pence recognized that America didn’t want Trump.
Let’s not give Pence more credit than he deserves. Pence didn’t decline to support Trump out of a sense of duty or because he cares about Americans, but because Dan Quayle (!) told him he had no choice in the matter:
Over and over, Pence asked if there was anything he could do.
‘Mike, you have no flexibility on this. None. Zero. Forget it. Put it away,’ Quayle told him.
Pence pressed again.
‘You don’t know the position I’m in,’ he said, according to the authors.
‘I do know the position you’re in,’ Quayle responded. ‘I also know what the law is. You listen to the parliamentarian. That’s all you do. You have no power.’
Donald Trump’s response if asked:
"I’ve never met J.D. Vance. I don’t know who he is. People tell me he’s a fan, but I’ve never met him.
JD knew what he signed up for. It’s being Trump’s bitch and not certifying the election results.
He’s the cushion for pushin in this election.
Seriously. How did he not understand that he’s the gimp in this relationship? Trump is going to dominate and abuse him. How does he not understand that’s what he signed up for?
