[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dems are envious because Vance has a brain & Kamala….doesn’t.[/quote]
Kamala has more credentials politically than he does.   Also, it's much harder for a woman to rise in the political ranks than a man, so she has more balls than he does.

Even so, they both are smarter than Trump, yet Trump is your man. So, you may not want to mention who has a brain and who doesn't.[/quote]

Kamala has brains.  She's a prosecutor with a long record of public service.  Vance...got in to Yale Law School as a military admit, [b]didn't have a stellar record there[/b], and has worked at a hedge fund run by conservative Silicon Valley oddballs.   He has a very thin resume.  And shame on his wife--a brown immigrant woman embracing the MAGA nutjobs who would like nothing more than to expel people like her from the country.

I think he was on the Yale Law Journal.[/quote]

He was.  But as one of 60 others.

Yes. But I was responding to the pp who said he had a “less than stellar record” at YLS. Making law review disproves that.[/quote]

Yale does not base law review on grades—it’s different than other schools.  When I was there, it was a blue booking test combined with a writing (assessment of a submitted article) graded by fellow students.  It wasn’t a process that necessarily rewarded the smartest so “making law review” doesn’t prove that much.

I’m also laughing internally at the PP that said he was well liked at YLS as some kind of proof that he’s a people person.  I don’t know if he was well liked at YLs (I was there before him) but YLS is definitely not a good metric for how normal humans interact with each other.
