Oh man. Imagine his debates vs. name em.

He is quick, plus he has a solid base. What does the JD guy offer?

Vance is the author of Hillbilly Eligy, which was an enormously influential book about Appalachia. He has a ton of working class credibility.

Doesnt Trump already have a solid base for the working class?

Yeah and I don’t know exactly what the calculus was here.

I think there’s a lot of skepticism about Trump’s appointments, because they were so bad in his first term.

Vance might be a signal that he learned something from that and won’t pick a bunch of establishment hacks this time.

I thought he would have picked his kids. Thinking of succession and all.

That’s always struck me as silly. Americans hate that sort of thing. It would make no sense electorally.

Vance committed to behaving opposite of the way Mike Pence did.

In what way? Being loyal to Trump?

Exactly, it would be a bloodbath.

Its always a bloodbath when you are debating biden lol
