The one who keeps insulting women and wants to track 13 year old girls menstrual cycles?
Brilliant.
What, you mean insulting and denigrating more than half the population isn’t a winning electoral strategy?
It’s okay, their husbands and fathers will be telling them how to vote anyway.
“Hey don’t a significant number of the children of your movement’s participants not speak to them anymore?”
Irrelevant
It is when the other half of your electoral strategy involves removing the ability to vote from the half of the population you’re insulting.
It was just a “thought experiment” that I said out loud to an audience whose vote I was trying to get, it was never meant to be representative of campaign policy.

Stay the course, Weirdos!
Yes, the one who has a reputation for having intercourse with couches and being obsessed with dolphin-related porn.
You know, the ‘moral choice’.
Yeah my feelings with vance is trump was desperately looking for a vice president that would toe the line (ala not certifying results) and yet be someone who people would not like to in the office even over him. Now that he is the republican party he did not need to have a vp who had ties to past party.
Genital Observation Party.
See, if you’re gonna cover the election in pure horse race terms, this is the way to do it. Try to tell me this article wasn’t more fun to write than something about “+ 2 points in the polls.”
Trump chose Vance because he knows no one could possibly “like” Vance more than Trump.
Trump’s narcissism prevents him from choosing someone even remotely likable or capable because Trump’s ego would fear them as competition.Trump does not have the intelligence necessary to run this country (or a lemonade stand, for that matter, but I digress…). However, he does have enough skills to “fake it until he makes it” enough to make his base happy, and that base is large enough to at least give him a viable chance in any given election.
JD Vance has none of that. If Trump were to drop dead, JD Vance would immediately shit where he stood while being sworn in, looking like a deer in the headlights of an oncoming full speed train. He does not have the skills needed to be POTUS. But he also doesn’t have the skills to fake it until he makes it, nor does he have the base of voters willing to put up with him while he figures it out.
As bad as a Trump presidency was, a Vance presidency would be the geopolitical equivalent of the Chernobyl disaster to watch. World leaders would literally be having a WWE deathmatch to line up so they could take advantage of this idiot. He has all of Trump’s stupidity, but none of his chutzpah. Trump may stand up and fight back at the wrong times, against the wrong people, for the wrong reasons. But at least he stands up and fights back. JD vance would get stepped on, and then apologize for not saying “sir” when asking them to get their foot off his neck.
I’ve always said that in any given situation, Trump will always find a way to pick the worst possible option available to him and go with it, even if that option isn’t clear to those of us with functioning brains. And this seems to be no different; I didn’t think there could be a worse candidate to pick than Trump, but leave it up to Trump himself to prove me wrong. JD Vance could very well be worse than Trump is. And that’s a fucking high bar to clear.
What a great idea, make it Vance vs Harris when a July 22-26th national poll put that matchup at Harris 50% to Vance 39%
That dude is somehow weirder than Trump though
But he is. They’re going to 25th Trump and Vance will finish out the term, being yanked around on his puppet strings.
This is the Ruskies. Defenestration in the east, polonium tea in the west.
