J.D. Vance

Quote: odiousgambit

people used to say 'the VP pick doesn't matter much, to pick a nobody might be best'

did all this carping go on before and I didn't notice it?

Trump now is the oldest person to ever run for president. Dementia runs in his family. It's a coin flip he lives through a full term, or keeps his faculties during a full term. JD Vance is one heart attack or stroke away from the presidency. We have never had a VP (in our lifetime) with less experience at government that JD Vance.

I'm sure that if anything happens to trump JD Vance will have no real power, as the Trump loyalists will not allow any deviation from the agenda, but JD Vance has said he's a chameleon, we'd have to see he morphs into.

Don't be a sheep man, think for yourself. Republicans and Democrats do not have your best interests at heart. There is a reason that everyone running is a millionaire. Walz is an outlier, but give him a few years in the big leagues and he will be in the JD Vance region.

Uh oh.

“Alpha Male” JD Vance

Quote: AZDuffman

I fail to see anything weird about Vance. Other than he actually acts manly, sort of like a teddy Roosevelt. In this day an age some people cannot handle that. What is Weird is people who claim to hate him watching his every move. Maybe they have a gay crush on him, wishing they could catch for him or something. But that ain’t my realm and ain’t his either. But they seem to keep hoping.

JD Vance is no where near Teddy Roosevelt's league. Roosevelt was an accomplished intellectual, even during his youth. There is nothing JD's history to indicate he compares favorably to Teddy.

We will be fine. Obama was a potus with less experience. Even though he was a disaster the nation survived.

If he was a disaster, we need more disasters like him!

I'm willing to chuckle at a picture of a youth in a stupid, harmless college prank.

You like 7% unemployment? He has half the months over that rate since WWII.

Sorry, nope. Reagan inherited the same "lagging indicator" from Carter but had the rate falling in less than half the time of Obama. And things were much worse then. Regan was not pumping the economy with the meth of near zero interest rates.

Face it, Obama was a disaster from the economy to his Middle East wars.
