It's probably the best chance Vance has at the presidency. Roughly 50/50 that Trump wins, and I'd say there is about an 80% chance that Trump dies in office or gets 25th'd after a stroke. Those are pretty tempting odds to get in the presidency. Vance doesn't have enough pull with hate groups to get the Republicans nomination.
Don't you put that evil on us Ricky Bobby
Honestly I'd say it's that likely he dies on golf course
My guess is that's the plan all along. When Trump said he'll be a dictator "but only on day one", he meant Vance would be a dictator going forward.
Man I didn’t even think about that and I’m now I’m even more upset, anxious, and worried
Vance is like the bizarro LBJ. Johnson's sole goal in life was to become President but he had absolutely no shot at it because he only had pull with hate groups (the racist South). Without question, he only got into the Oval Office because of a bullet to Kennedy's head. Kind of amazing that in 2024 locking up the hate group vote is enough to get not only the Republican nomination but also the Presidency.
To them, hate has been rebranded (or not depending on which political historian you talk to) as American tradition.
I don't hate gays, but it goes against American tradition.
I don't hate black people, but CRT poisons kids against American tradition.
I don't hate immigrants, but they bring their own culture instead of accepting American tradition.
Those are all sentiments I've heard from the (not quite as insane) right. It's horseblinders that let them march to the conservative drum, without seeing the neonazis and klansmen next to them.
