The implication is that if those who want to assassinate the President believe that the VP would be as bad or worse, then they would refrain from assassinating him.

Vance would be terrible as a president, but he’s no Trump and will never be.

My problem with Vance is he is truly isolationist - there is a vast range of difference in neocon wars + nation building, gunboat diplomacy, peace through strength (deterring global conflict), and just sitting back and letting the world make decisions without you

Vance on domestic issues though, is great. He approaches natalism as it should - faith, marriage, family (unlike Musk who sends the wrong message to young men with having a dozen baby mamas)

That's perhaps the dumbest thing I've read all day. Is JD Vance a bullet magnet or something? Is he a superhero? How does Vance prevent assassination?


Not surprised that it's going over your head. The point is, the stronger the VP is, the less likely the Left would stand to gain much by taking out Trump.

If Nikki Haley were the Veep there'd probably be 5 attempts per week.

You are correct. JD was the pick because they fear him being president more than even Trump. They know he would go full throttle on trannies, “free love”, and abortion

Why do you think the idol of masculinity, Timothy Waltz, went on perverted rants about Vance and sofas?

I wonder what the post Trump era will be like. What kind of mental gymnastics will the left go through to paint the next republican candidate/president as a fascist. And will that open a few more eyes to the tactics of the left.


W was Hitler who let black men be dragged to death by car.

Romney was a cold rich white guy who cut his employees off from life saving cancer treatment, brutalized gay kids in high school, and put dogs on the roof of his car.

I’m sure Vance, Rubio, or DeSantis will be more of the same.

Interesting claim. Both DJT and DJT jr have said on record JD got picked due to Jr’s lobbying his father.

Jr has said he used up his lifetime of political capital with his dad to make it happen.

JD was already being heavily promoted to DJT through the conduits of Don Jr., Bongino and Tucker, among others. If Musk jumped on the JD bandwagon, he was already late to the party.

This indeed. Seems if Musks says it, the Muskovites get to boot licking as if he was the OG. Dude is a MAGA bandwagoner.

I disagree. I think he would be fantastic

I completely agree.

Trump was irreplaceable for breaking the grip of the deep state, just as Winston Churchill was the perfect man for rallying Britain to fight the Nazis. But when the war was over Churchill was no longer the right man, and Trump’s time will pass, too. JD Vance is, so far as I have seen, the perfect one to carry the torch and reshape populism into a true liberal force for freedom and small government.

More MAGA with the ability to contain the tongue and emotions. History will record Trump as one of the top 5 POTUS of all time, but JD has the intelligence, background, and backbone to be top 2!
