In the world of presidential health, distrust and speculation run so rampant that even Mr. Trump’s online assurance that he was fine was immediately explained away as part of a cover-up.

    Once you understand more about JD Vance (and the tech billionaires that installed him) you wouldn’t be as hopeful for the future as you are now. It won’t get better after cheeto dies.

      JD “whatever makes sense” Vance couldnt build a cult following if he tried. He has zero, it not negative, charisma

      Its worth saying he doesnt need one to get into power, but at the same time no one would turn a blind eye to his actions based solely on bias like they do with Trump. He has no chance of placating the MAGA party whatsoever if they turn on him for any reason. Not to mention that everyone knows hes a weird little gremlin, even his supporters

        Agreed. Pence didn’t get the second run because he showed actual backbone when democracy was actually on the line. Vance is a little bitch boy yes-man.

          I think it was more that Pence realized Trump couldn’t pull off that coup, so he wasn’t gonna stick out his neck for him. If he wasn’t VP then, I have no doubt he’d support Trump up until the present day, even if he has the same misgivings all ambitious right wingers have. People like him never allied with Trump because they like him, but because he wins against Democrats and politically destroys rival Republicans.

      He has to hold a coalition together to get anything done.

      Vance was a net negative on the campaign and has the charisma of a cummy sock. He’ll be the first to get the knife when they come out.
