“You’re just like that guy we hate so much, who won a Nobel Peace prize, and had good approval ratings for most of his two terms, as opposed to our candidate who is a convicted felon and had dismal ratings for his entire term.”
Lately, Vance has been much better at spouting weird garage than Trump, and the media has been lapping it up. That’s a big no-no in the 78-year-old narcissist’s book.
See, this is one reason why I didn’t think Trump was going to pick Vance. He’s an ass, but he’s outspoken and ambitious, so right now, he’s taking the spotlight away from Trump. I thought for sure Trump would pick someone content to stay in the background.
I suspect Vance’s mentor and patron, right wing tech douchebag Peter Thiel, made a deal with Trump to take him on as VP. Possibly even a cash deal. Vance would be in this role as Thiel’s personal legislative connect.
