    We can only hope. Iā€™m more wary of the torch being passed on to him. Trump has a limited shelf life, but Vance is young.

    And before the wave of ā€œTrump doesnā€™t share powerā€, I know. Iā€™m not talking about what Trump intends, Iā€™m talking about all of Trumps powerful allies who want continued influence after Trump.

    Trump will try to neuter Vance, for sure. But I have my doubts that he can pull it off.

      What makes trump ā€œworkā€ - the con - on all these moronic shitheads is something Vance does not and will never possess. They may mutate it into some more overt crypto-fascist money cult, but theyā€™ll never get the batshit dialed in to the sweet spot they have at the moment.

        The thing is they only need this level of fanatic obedience from their base to get IN. Once they are, and theyā€™re able to warp the government to their vision, everything else will fall into place.
