I’m from Ohio. A red state in every sense. Ignorance, racism&a willingness to look the other way in epic corruption, that is Ohio. OH chose Vance over Sherrod Brown which demonstrates the level of stupidity in OH.
I’m making an excuse for the least charismatic person ever being elected being elected. JD aside changing his name 3 times demonstrates some level of questions regarding his mental stability. He also represents the world oligarchy.
I kept saying Trump wouldn’t be elected, so what do I know, but Vance is uniquely bizarre&a terrible fit in a representative democracy.
I wonder if the difference is that MAGA perceives Trump as loyal to them, but they see JD as backstabbing, particularly backstabbing of Trump. Shifty. Trump can complain about being victimized, and they eat it up (and amp up their loyalty) but if JD did anything of the sort, they’d see it as well deserved.
Just the Iran War? Vance - ALL the lickspittle Red Caps - will be stained for decades with the stink of Trump. The antisemitism won’t do it … and he has no charisma … the chopper golf lessons won’t be forgotten either.
Marco Rubio is seen as the other post-Trump alternative and there is no question his area of responsibility - relations with other countries - has been an unmitagated, multi-pronged disaster.
Dems should point out that Vance capaigned as an anti-Trump Senator before getting Trump's endorsement by abruptly changing his tune and being pro-Trump. All that demonstrates is that he's wishy washy and unwilling to stand behind his views.
"YOU THERE, PEASANT! ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS PEON! I DEMAND YOU RAISE THIS RIVER'S WATER LEVEL! My family demands kayaking."
(Shouldn't forget THAT, either...this level of entitled Epstein class behavior should not be tolerated from any American, ESPECIALLY a Vice President representing our nation. Thank you for helping us remember!)
Vance is waaaay outta his depth to remain long in the public eye. His most revealing moment — and one that has echoed repeatedly — was when, after accusing Haitians in Springfield of eating the city’s pets and being called out for it, he whined that he thought there would be no fact checkers.
He lies as if that’s what human politicians are expected to do and gives no indication that he has learned anything. After conversion to Roman Catholicism to please Thiel, he challenges the Pope on doctrine and his stump speeches are aimed at acting the hillbilly evangelical conceits. He is incapable of rising to anything like even modest political talent, nor has any base in the US ir the GOP and with Orban gone, has no support abroad other than with whackos like AfD and Reform.
He cannot negotiate.
I still don’t believe he has learned how to order a donut.
I will be more than glad to see him go. One less piece of shite.
EXACTLY! JD is an ignorant idiot with the charisma of a rabid ferret. He lies as quickly and easily as Felon47 with no apparent concern for how far he veers from the truth and reality on an almost daily basis. He is a man with no honor, no honesty, no integrity, no decorum, no class, no character and it looks like no religion.
If our country has become dirtier and poorer, it is not the ordinary immigrants who are causing this, but people such as Vance’s owner, Peter Thiel, and the other oligarchs who only look at this country as a cash cow for themselves,and would happily starve everyone if it gave them another dollar.
It's hard to imagine a Vance presidency. I know we like to think there's no way a republikkkan can win, but it's easy to get ahead of ourselves. He is just not that smart, he is not well read, he literally had no policies he put forth, etc. I see him failing at any attempt at the presidency. I hope.
I think all federally elected Republicans are going to be tainted by Trump's Iran disaster and indeed the other governing catastrophe's of this Presidency. In approximate terms 90% of them have voiced support for all his blunders, 9% have held silence and the honourable 1% who opposed him have been chased out of the party. I hope independent voters have long memories.
If Vance goes ahead with a campaign, he’ll be exposed as not just a lightweight and fair wind blowhard but also as compromised by the very people who paved his way to prominence. Ignorant, arrogant, and a ventriloquist dummy, if not also a liar and puppet. And who in hell would be put up as his running mate?

Every Republicon is tainted. The only chance they have to win the presidency in 2028 is if Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, or some other republican who was excommunicated by Trump and MAGA runs. Unfortunately for them those still in the party won't support them because it would require them to admit they were on the wrong side. It is a delicious dilemma for the party of Grifters Oligarchs and Pedophiles.
He will have as much luck with shedding the stink of the war as Harris had shedding the stink of an out-of-control immigration surge. What happens on the Captain’s watch also taints the XO.
I know JDVance was elected Senator in Ohio.

Agree

Plus, to true MAGA believers Rubio will always be a Mexican.

A hollow chameleon.

The MAGA elite looks to MAGA and says, “Suckers!” … looks to donors, looks to elitist perks, looks in the mirror, and says, “Gimme!”

The boot comment at the end of this piece is a perfect metaphor.
It's hard to imagine a Vance presidency. I know we like to think there's no way a republikkkan can win, but it's easy to get ahead of ourselves. He is just not that smart, he is not well read, he literally had no policies he put forth, etc. I see him failing at any attempt at the presidency. I hope.
About the only thing that JD has to help him stand out among others is his skill with eye liner.
Um. “Gore lost”??
He did not become president is probably a better way of saying it.
I thought the same thing, then figured Paul was avoiding the tangent. 😂 It was a close race.
I think all federally elected Republicans are going to be tainted by Trump's Iran disaster and indeed the other governing catastrophe's of this Presidency. In approximate terms 90% of them have voiced support for all his blunders, 9% have held silence and the honourable 1% who opposed him have been chased out of the party.

Brilliant ending analogy about the car boot! The rest of the piece isn’t bad either!!
Did Gore really lose the 2000 election? Or did SCOTUS just throw it to Bush (I believe the latter)
The sooner we get rid of Vance, the better for the nation. Let him peddle his Nazi fantasies in E. Germany.
If Vance goes ahead with a campaign, he’ll be exposed as not just a lightweight and fair wind blowhard but also as compromised by the very people who paved his way to prominence. Ignorant, arrogant, and a ventriloquist dummy, if not also a liar and puppet. And who in hell would be put up as his running mate?
I have wondered whether Vance and his wife thought they would live in the WH by now. Ugh.
