Look no further than J.D. Vance's statements about trump, you will see a very clear disdain and disapproval of Trump and then suddenly, very pro Trump. Happens every time with these fascists.

He's a monster! I could never align myself with him! Well, not unless it would benefit me and what are the cha...

He doesn't mind Trump being America's Hitler if he has the opportunity to be America's Himmler.

Hill Billy heroine for some, little plastic American flags for others.

TWIRLING TWIRLING

I don't get the reference.

Hopefully, my state can now choose someone else who isn’t a dumbass. Or at least less of one.
Also, loving this decision for the likes of Marje Green who has been doing all those pony tricks in hopes of Trump choosing her and she still didn’t get it.

Is he resigning his seat to run for VP? Because he doesn’t have to, I think. And if he loses and didn’t resign his seat, then you’re stuck with him.
And he’s from Middletown, so this explains a lot of why he’s attached himself to Trump’s tiny penis.

As we've unfortunately recently learned, 3 inches can be significant.

Not a surprise at all.

What nickname we going with- J.D. Pence, Hillbilly Effigy?
-
That’s actually pretty good lol
Brings me back to like 10 years ago when my political friends almost convinced me I should read his book. Glad I didn’t
-
It actually is a good book. As someone from the same general area, I saw a lot of my own family and experiences reflected in his writing. I had hopes that he might step up and push for more of a class-conscious republican party until he turned out to be a fascist tool.

Lice President? Sucking in Cumand?

Hmm I wonder why he didn't pick Pence again. Curious.

My first reaction was... who?
But I think that's the point. He's a nobody yes-man who won't exercise any influence that could challenge Trump. Learned that lesson with the last pick, who wouldn't even commit some light treason to illegally keep Trump in power.
I think you underestimate how well-known he is, especially to Republicans. He is definitely a Trump yes-man and always has been, but he is not an unknown at all.
Maybe not “always has been,” as at one point he said Trump would be “America’s Hitler.”
But unlike most of us who would probably not want to work for someone you personally think could be Hitler, he’s done the normal GOP thing and flipped right over for the game of it all.
Fair enough - not really the circles I run in so I really wouldn't know.

A whole network of family and friends stepped in to raise him when his parents fell apart, and the generosity of scholarships and government grants for the economically disadvantaged paid his way through a Yale education, all so he could turn around and write a book about how poor people are actually lazy and just need to tug those bootstraps harder and start hitting their kids again
This dude seems to be pretty sharp and is a huge threat. Him and his Peter Theil buddies are working hard to outright destroy democracy. I wouldn't write this guy off as a yes-man.
