Psst: he is correct. There are a lot of *other* issues to care about.

Yes, and as I noted, his positions on those *other* issues aren’t attractive to suburban women either. Neither is his contention that it’s not normal to care about reproductive rights.

Exactly. No one suggested that’s the only thing suburban women care about. Yet he plainly said he thinks it’s abnormal to care about reproductive rights. That’s … nuts. I can’t speak for men but I think you’d be hard pressed to find any woman over the age of 18 who hasn’t thought about reproductive rights in some fashion. Even if they are anti-abortion or anti-contraception, it’s still a completely normal thing to think about, and it’s pretty crazy that he doesn’t understand that.

He doesn't understand women at all, and that may be why he wants them controlled so heavily.

How did he graduate from Ohio State in two years? I've never read an explanation. He also interned in the Hill, right, so it's not like he was loading up with courses in Columbus every summer. And he was in undergrad before remote courses.

My nephew graduated from a state school in two years because he took enough classes at the local community college during high school that he graduated with an associate’s degree in addition to his high school diploma. Not sure if that’s what Vance did though.

Oh, but remember, he is from Appalachia! Ha ha. No he isn’t. That is a total fabrication.

I am from Ohio. He went up against Tim Ryan who actually has better policies for Ohio. Unfortunately, Thiel put up so much money for Vance. Ryan just couldn’t keep up. Tech bros have infiltrated Ohio. Shocking that nothing is getting better in Ohio.

What happened? Nothing. He's someone who jumps from career to career. He never stays at anything long. He doesn't get good at anything before he's off ot he next deal.

He graduated high school, joined the Marines for 4 years. Came back and with the GI bill, did college for 2.5 years, then went to law school for 4 years. He came out, clerked for a year, went to a law firm and practiced law for less than 2 years. Then he jumped ship to follow Thiel as a venture capitalist apprentice. But he worked for or started 4 firms in 5 years, never staying longer than a year or two at any venture. The only venture he backed for the entire 5 years, AppHarvest went backrupt just after he bailed and jumped ship. He was a critical part of the what made the company go bankrupt. Then he was picked by Trump to run for the Senate and less than 2 years into that gig, he's now running for VP.

He has only stayed long enough at any given gig to know that he isn't very good at it. And then he jumps ship before anyone else finds out he is no good at what he does. He's like a version of the guy from Catch Me If You Can, Frank, Abagnale.

My guess for why he's done the 180 about-face on Trump and been consumed by die-hard conservative views is that he knows that Trump is going senile and he wants to be the one to inherit the MAGA Conspiracy Cartel. He's trying to sell himself as the heir apparent to the Q-Anons, MAGA, Neo Nazis, White Supremacists, AntiSemites, HandMaiden's Tale, Christian Fundamentalist Basket of Deplorables. This is Trump's last hurrah and Vance wants to become the figurehead of the movement.

“Basket of Deplorables” was not a good phrase the first time around.

No one has a basket anymore. Baskets are bougie. Maybe grandma has one on a doylee.

Please retire this phrase. This site leans so old.

I’d bet JD was enrolled in community college courses while on a desk in North Carolina. He doesn’t write or talk about this because it underscores how fake and bullshit his time in the marines was.

You gloss over his connections to intel, billionaire neocons, neocon think tanks, Amy and Jed, Axelrod, CNN, his boring fictionalized memoir when he hadn’t done a damn thing in life, NYTimes pumping the book, and a $40M Netflix movie. His placement in public relations in the marines was itself intel adjacent if not intel cover. He’s a Manchurian created in a lab.
