One thing’s for sure: JD Vance will be shit on and thrown under the bus.
That’s The Turmp Guarantee!
Will he reuse the last set of vice presidential gallows, or get his own?
Ooh. That's dark.
Depends on how he transgresses the unwritten law
Vance seems like the kind of sleaze that would throw Trump under the bus too. Honestly I think it's gonna come down to who gets the opportunity first. Its like a sith master and apprentice.
The rule of two
Someone needs to Photoshop Vance as Darth Maul with the head spikes and all.
Dang yo
Accurate AF
I didn't really know anything about him until recently, but from what I've been reading, that's spot on. He doesn't have principles except whatever is expedient in the moment. He's happy to fellate Trump now, but if there's an opportunity to get more power for himself, he's going to take it, regardless of Trump.
Oh man please let it be soon. Let the two rip each other and the party apart trying to throw each other under the bus
Trump's VP pick is a Machiavellian sycophant with the integrity of a Boeing 747.
737 Max?
Yeah 747s are from before Boeing went cost cutting on engineering.
I'm waiting for the inevitable 'I never even knew the guy'
JD Vance was just a covfefe boy.
Trump said, “See ya later boy.”
We can only hope. I'm more wary of the torch being passed on to him. Trump has a limited shelf life, but Vance is young.
And before the wave of "Trump doesn't share power", I know. I'm not talking about what Trump intends, I'm talking about all of Trumps powerful allies who want continued influence after Trump.
Trump will try to neuter Vance, for sure. But I have my doubts that he can pull it off.
What makes trump “work” - the con - on all these moronic shitheads is something Vance does not and will never possess. They may mutate it into some more overt crypto-fascist money cult, but they’ll never get the batshit dialed in to the sweet spot they have at the moment.
Over/under on how long it takes Vance to flip to the prosecution in some as-yet unknown future case against Trump?
Oh I think he’s already got the fake-tooth-cyanide-capsule implanted. He can never turn, only die.
Mike Pence is a milquetoast HIV enthusiast with the looks and personality of a Q-Tip but it didn't deter the dimwits in 2016.
Conservative Christians / Evangelicals loved Pence. He was a big reason Trump was elected imo. I don't think this new jabroni will help trump like pence did.
That's good news, I hope so. They just seem to turn a blind eye to everything.
I’m not sure Trump needs that kind of supporting appeal this time around. He survived an assassination attempt - to his religious followers, that is divine providence.
I believe the new jabroni was chosen for entirely different reasons. There is a significant MAGA uprising going on in Silicon Valley, and Vance is well connected there. This is an inroad previously impassable for republicans…
Trump picked Pence to shore up the evangelical vote. Vance was chosen to shore up the Nazi vote. Easy peasey.
https://vxtwitter.com/JDVance1/status/1511311385543815180 - Seriously look at this campaign ad.
And don't believe his sob story about his mother, I looked into it... She was an RN who kept raiding the controlled substances cabinet, had nothing to do with "Mexicans forcing drugs on her"
Hahaha wtf is this
Are you a racist? Do you hate mexicans?
“Then come join us in the GOP”
Basically, like... How the hell did anyone greenlight this? I'm starting to think Vance is the GOP's biggest weakness right now. Ya know his name wasn't always Vance, he actually changed it because he had trauma associated with his previous name due to parental abuse.
And yet he wants to ban transpeople from changing THEIR names....
Hypocrite
Right? I wish all Republican ads were this blatant, I wish they had been back in 2012.. We'd never have been in this situation to begin with.
Hahahaha the community notes.
JD Vance’s mother utilized her position as a nurse to steal prescribed medication from her patients, not because of undocumented immigrants.
I don't even know what to say. It reminds me of the dumbass whitebread fascist version of Sally Struthers hawking "degrees" back in the 90s.
Vance doesn't win any demographic that was lagging for Trump. Anyone who likes Vance was already voting Trump. Strategically on that alone, he's a wasted pick. (I'm not complaining, don't worry)
I heard somewhere he has connections to money that Trump needs for the campaign, so that might be what drove it.
It's pretty clear Vance previously hated Trump. And it's surprising Trump picked Vance after those comments, but when neither person has a moral compass to stick to, just like the rest of the party, overlooking those kinds of issues becomes much easier.
He has no charisma whatsoever and struggled to get through his speech while talking like a robot.
No, no, no. You simply misunderstood him.
You were supposed to be in a subservient mental coma by the point you actually listen to him speak. Duh.
No headline in the form of this one means shit about what will happen in reality. I don't pay these any mind anymore.
Here’s hoping! 🤞🏻
The new season of "Swamp Creatures" sure seems to be the swampiest yet.
I mean, it's not like they could ever find anyone worse than trump. I doubt this will hurt Trump's election seeing as how republicans are already fine electing a conman rapist pedophile scumbag.
(Pe)nce -> (Va)nce
(Pe)nis -> (Va)gina
Just saying... LOL
knowing how these guys like to act tough and force people to kiss the ring I bet this could just have been trump putting vance into a position where he in no way can talk bad about trump after him being "anti-trump"
