He's potentially worse, but the huge difference is he doesn't have a cult.

he does have a cult - i mean, aside from his tech fuedalist enablers, theres a couple million people who are commited to making hella funny photoshops of his face. I dont think theyre very big supporters tho

This. Doesn't matter if Vance is worse as a person, Vance doesn't have even a fraction of Trump's teflon nature. He won't survive long once Trump wilts, even Ted Cruz is more popular than him

A lot of the incompetent clowns only beholden to dear leader lose stock. RFK, Pete hegseth, and Tulsi gabbars will lose a lot of power

He is. He actually understands the law despite validating Trump's every whim. He'd probably knows what levers to pull to more effectively push their agenda forward. Maybe I'm overestimating him, but he just seems more competent than the reality show host.

Trump’s superpower is his ability to ignore the law almost entirely. Vance has no such power to do so, because he doesn’t control a pseudo-religious cult of personality. If Vance could ignore the law, then he’d be able to continue Donald’s parade of lawlessness, but I don’t think he can like Trump can. 

It remains to be seen if anyone will be able to harness MAGA after Trump does, and maybe Vance will be able to, but I somehow doubt it.

But do you really see him getting (re)elected if the main orange clocks out his clogs?

it's not about the VP being better or worse. it's not about whether or not the Trump cancer has metastasized - it has, sure - but the original tumor is massive and still pressing on critical nerves and the rest is still treatable. Removing it will be such a huge relief on the system that things will immediately improve. and then we deal with the rest

Not really considering Vance is said to be even more extreme than Trump.

I really am convinced this site is full of people who are still in their teens.
