[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.  [/quote]

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. [b]His placement in public relations in the marines[/b] was itself intel adjacent if not intel cover. He’s a Manchurian created in a lab.[/quote]

I would really, really, really like to know the back story on this.  Is he just the luckiest son-of-a-gun in history, to get a plush desk job as an enlisted guy straight out of HS during war time?  Everyone I know that enlisted like this got sent right into fighting.  Unless someone in basic trainign said "uh, we can't send this guy to the front..." I just DO NOT understand how he got that position.  Why don't they save that sh-t for people that have already done a deployment or two, or someone with a short-term disability or pregnancy?  This really upends everything I thought I knew about the military.

Exactly. His entire life is a lie, as if he was groomed and created by Langley. [/quote]
If you’re implying he’s some sort of Jason Bourne, I think the government should get its money back. JD seems like a propped up failure. [/quote]

Are mayor Pete, Elissa Slotkin and Josh Shapiro “Jason Bournes”? :roll: [/quote]
