@Resister_Grandma he's a mess, he may not stay the full four years

That's exactly what Vance's tech bro backers and financiers are counting on.
It was never about getting the Turnip back in, it was about making Vance their heir and benefactor.
Vance is Trump on roids, but younger and 100 times smarter. Trump was and is merely a short-term vehicle.

Not saying there won't be a giant fight, just saying the newly minted broligarchs are happy to let them fight each other, just not a Democrat.
Because either way they win.
Trump as usual is a useful idiot to the worst not just in USA, or Earth, but the actual galaxy.
It's his default state: "PLIABLE AND EASILY MANIPULATED ASSHOLE'
^^^ If we're lucky I have no idea what I'm talking about. 👍
@th3j35t3r I know this won’t be a popular observation, but I’d rest easier if JD becomes Prez sooner. JD is Yale. Yale is centrist, reasonable GOP. It’s possibly the only way to wrest the GOP control back to normal centrist conservatives from fringe far right radicals. But I often have no idea what I’m talking about either. (Full disclosure: I am Yale MM ‘93 (on full scholarship; not from wealth)) List of Yale 🇺🇸 Presidents or Vice Presidents (and one drop-out)
Yale may be centrist, but Vance is demonstrably not. He and Peter Thiel share the same extremist views.
@tyghebright @th3j35t3r Agreed he doesn’t show that now, but he also had very different views before DT was King of GOP. So, again likely that I’m an optimistic idiot, but sometimes the way you change things is from the inside, very, very close to the source of the festering source of far-right evil. My weird take on “don’t shoot until you see the whites of their eyes”.
