    There’s so much gold here. This is an incomprehensively bad pick for Trump team with regards to the Election, even if JD Vance and Trump are likely aligned to do horrible things together if they actually get the win.

    I really don’t get this pick. It’s so bad. A religious conservative like Pence or a token black guy would have made far more sense. I suppose it shows that Trump cares about loyalty above all else.

      Its the Hitler / Gobbels pick.

      Trump is doubling down upon how he wants his administration to be run. Not trying to build a coalition anymore. Therein lies the weakness, Trump’s base is going to be smaller than ever before.

      This increases the damage if Trump actually becomes President though. So its more important than ever that we stop this. But the ever-shrinking base is quite evident.

        Exactly, and for all the whining about Biden’s age, Trump is only one Big Mac away from keeling over too. I doubt many Americans want President Vance.
