JD Vance, couch, power-hungry, opportunist

It’s hard to imagine America after Trump leaves the scene, but President JD Vance would be a repellent replacement.

Most Americans have an unfavorable view of Vice President JD Vance, his main problem seeming to be that people don’t relate to him on a personal level. He says all of the same horrible things that President Donald Trump does, but he does it with more precision and less “humor.”

Vance couches his lies in a flurry of high-minded sounding rhetoric, but it comes off as inauthentic. Trump has a way of saying the most inhumane things in a way that draws his supporters in. Vance, on the other hand, is a psychic vampire. He feeds off the “life force” of anyone who listens to him. Can you imagine having to listen to this shapeshifting wanker lecturing us with his whiny condescending voice for a year or two before the next election?

It’s going to take a pile of money from Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and friends to design a campaign that presents this power-hungry opportunist as the savior of the white Western world. I don’t think it will work.
