    He’s way smarter though, at least rhetorically to the median electorate as a psychopath anyway. We all thought the same of Trump back in 2015 too.

    When the billionaires make their pivot, and you can tell they’re already setting up the chess pieces for a post-Trump era, watch how suddenly they promote Vance or some other shithead

      Vance is already Theil’s puppet. Has been since before he was nominated to run with Trump.

      Smarter than Trump isn’t exactly a high bar. Without the threat of the redhats behind him, he’ll be toothless. If just billionaire backing was enough the republicans would have been god emperors of the earth forty years ago.

        I think red hats will follow whatever bait billionaires dangle in front of them. It only takes a little meeting among the puppeteers to decide whom to start promoting, and then they’ll all fall in line like good little pawns. They fall for it every single time, this much I know. If they can fall for Bush Jr., for Trump, then the next person will be no different. In fact, they’ll just go, “You guys said Trump was a clown with the bronzer! Look how refined and sophisticated JD Vance is! He’s even a pretty good debater and just speaks facts that you don’t like!”

          You vastly underestimate the hold Trump has over them. No one could take his place for them. They’re the ones voting only Trump the last election.
