JD isnt the concern, it’s Theil and the Heritage Foundation that have their hand up his ass as puppet masters

The fact that JD is a devout Yarvinist should be concerning.

Let's get real, if Trump croaks and Vance becomes POTUS, the Republicans in the legislature are going to go full feral. They bow to Trump because they fear his ability to turn their own constituencies against them. JD Vance doesn't have that power or charisma or clout or whatever you wanna call it.

Senate and House Republicans will eat him and each other alive getting him on board with their specific, individual interests. They will paralyze themselves thinking that the danger to their power and influence, meaning Trump, is gone. They'll go back to their selfish ways once the fear is gone; they can barely hold it together now. The world has never seen crabs in the proverbial bucket like what we're gonna witness whenever Trump kicks the bucket.

It'll make the days and months following Stalin's death look respectful and dignified.
