you have to read how Vance was made:
- Vance and Thielās relationship dates back to 2011, when Vance met Thiel following a talk the venture capitalist gave at Yale Law School that Vance has characterized as āthe most significant moment of my timeā at the institution, according to a blog post he wrote for Catholic magazine The Lamp.
- Vance began planning for a career pivot outside of law following the talk, noting Thiel was āpossibly the smartest personā he ever met and that Thielās Christian faith ādefied the social template I had constructedāthat dumb people were Christians and smart ones atheists,ā according to the post.
- Thiel later became a āpretty good mentorā to Vance, according to The Washington Post, with Vance making the switch to venture capital and joining the Thiel-co-founded Mithril Capital in 2015 as a partner, according to Politico.

It is almost remarkable how far JD made it with such a complete lack of charisma. Everything about him feels so inauthentic. Honestly it doesnāt even seem like republicans like him

I will stick up for Vanceās book every time I hear about it. Go read it. Itās fantastic. The whole thesis of that book is: stop blaming black and brown people, stop living like animals, have some dignity, better yourselves, take responsibility.
It was a compassionate and honest look at poor white america. It was exactly what the Republican Party needed then and now.
Itās just tragic to see him whore himself out in exchange for power, especially because we can all sense his duplicity and insincerity and no one will ever elect him president.

Vance is well at best description, a rag. he will soak up anything around him and blow whatever ways the trade winds blow.
To say he best resembles a jellyfish in a suit would be appropriate.

Well, preferably you shouldn't be attacking someone over things like ethnicity, or Islam, or wanting basic human decency.
But, it's true that MAGA does that. They want that, because attacks and bombast project strength. Which is MAGA's primary concern, the showing and maintenance of strength.

Is it true that President Trump was mentioned over 38,000 times in the Epstein Files? That the President of the USA was convicted of raping a woman? Is it true that President Donald Trumpsās best friend was the leader of a global pedophile sex ring that focused on underage girls?

Vance is a Maga tool, who once looked as if he had a chance at a future in politics. Then he sold out completely and fell to his knees and licked Trumps boots, now he can never be taken seriously again, he is just a do boy and yes man for his handlers, same as Rubio.

He is the human equivalent of a sheet with eye liner, hung out to dry. Just blowing in the wind. No control. No structure. No purpose. Just blowing in the wind.

In my view he secretly admires men like Ossof and Talerico, seeing in them what he once aspired to be.
The couch gets nervous when Just Dance is alone and Ossof or Talerico come on the TV.

He is conniving, slippery and an outright lier. The unfortunate thing is he has made contacts and friends who will carry him once he isn't VP anulymore

Seriously, the author of Hillbilly Elegy is probably so disgusted with grown up JD Vance.

Just Dance Vance sold his soul to the corrupt Billionaires. He is their puppet and has no interest in supporting the American people.

u/Confident-Income567 8h ago
He's a non-commital yes man, anything to get a seat at the table. Not to be trusted.

Vance is just a front for Thiel,Yarwin, Musk. They needed someone less reptilian than themselves for people to feel some affinity. And 30ish % took the bait.

I kind of wonder if Peter Thiel abused vance in that kind of way as Thiel gives of like a gay eptstein evil vibe, but smarter than Epstein. Vance is a smart guy and knows better. In fact, even Jeanine Pirro knows better think about that for a hot second too that Jeanine Pirro was the last line of defense for the rule of law when it came to that sh*t show reflecting pool.
Back to Vance I think he thought he or others would control trump like in the first trump term so he would rise to power and be positioned for 2028.

Yup, James Donald Bowman is still dependant on others for his perceived successes. JD Grabs coat tails instead of boot straps. America's true "welfare quean".
