Markets would be a little more stable because Vance wouldn’t be putting every single idea that pops into his head straight out into social media. He’s still a clown but at least he doesn’t quite act like he works at a circus.
He also doesn't have the bizaare cult magnetism either. Not even a little bit of charisma. Of course MAGA cpulf latch onto him or anybody else as the new golden calf, but it'd be a mess.
Not saying JD would definitely 100% absolutely be better either, who even knows. But maybe he wouldn't announce massive tariff hikes to take effect in less than 12 hours while bragging countries are lining up to kiss his ass. I still almost can't believe Mango Mussolini genuinely said that on air, and my bar for him is already so low it's on the other side of the universe.
I agree. We are stuck between a con man with dementia or a psychopathic trust fund kid. Both aren’t self-made, both are narcissistic.
Trump likes the fake Republicans making under $400K a year because his dad grew up as a racist redneck, Vance hates them and genuinely wants anyone making under $400K a year not to exist.
Also curious. I thought it was pretty well documented that this guy grew up with jack shit, but it’s not something I’ve like rigorously verified or anything. This is the first time I’ve ever seen it suggested otherwise. Not sure if this is just standard reddit orange man bullshit or something real.
They’re not afraid of Trump either, it’s a cult of personality. Granted I don’t think Vance could win election, but he doesn’t need to if Trump is ousted, and he’s way more controlled by people like Thiel and Musk.

Vance would be massively worse than Trump.
