      Oh for sure, I kinda forgot this post was even about vance tbh. Just in the abstract, I don’t think he can win those states. I don’t think vance helps him do it, regardless of which people we’re talking about, nobody’s mind is getting changed on someone as central and polarizing as trump by a wet fart like JD Vance. You’re right though that his schtick is more likely to work on libs.

        Vance is so opportunistic that he will be whatever he thinks he needs to be for this election. That’s probably the real reason he is the pick. He probably made promises to do whatever Trump wants to get them elected. That might mean a pretense of respectability or it might mean giving the MAGAs red meat. Or hell, both, they probably don’t need to be consistent.
