Is it possible, then, that they are one and the same person, given the dishonesty and name-changing tendencies of both?
Are JD Vance and George Santos the SAME person???

Weird really just means unusual. If someone says something is weird, they’re just saying that’s not what they’re used to. When you think about it, the word really isn’t a compliment or an insult, just a neutral word that conveys a piece of information: the information that something is outside of a person’s regular scope of experience.
This means two things. 1) It’s down to the specific person’s opinion whether or not calling someone/something “weird” is a good thing. 2) It’s up to you to decide if you agree with them.
The irony is that our society has actually been groomed (by progressive liberals no less) to be accepting of anyone "weird" -- i.e., LGBTQ/Transgenderism/Drag Queens, etc. -- are all "weird". Not bad "weird" just a specific person’s opinion based on their beliefs and values that it is "unusual" and not the norm. It's OK to be "weird".
Also, anyone who has a child with OCD, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, etc. knows that it's OK to be "weird" because sometimes the child may have an uncontrollable tik or unusual habit and be called "weird" for it -- again, it's OK to be "weird".
So honestly -- the whole "he/they/the GOP/Trump/Vance" are all "weird" is falling flat even with this Anti-Trump voter. Because I'm weird sometimes and it's perfectly OK to be weird.
Calling a child "weird" because of their OCD/ADHD/ASD is not cool. Tons of kids struggle with these issues. They are very human issues. My child stims and I don't think of her as "weird" at all and I certainly wouldn't teach her to call other kids weird. That definition of "weird" assumes there is a group of "normal" people, none of whom have anything unusual about them, and that's not true.
Trump and Vance on the other hand are out of touch rich guys who support an unprecedented level of control over American families. That's bizarre. I can't relate to that.
I have an adult child with ADHD/OCD/GED...you are totally missing the point. Weird has been normalized. Case in point -- Keep Austin Weird. That's the whole point. Weird is not derogatory anymore.
But Minnesota's weird is not the same as Austin's weird.
No, it has not been completely normalized.
And Shakespeare wasn't referring to the "unusual sisters" in MacBeth, trust me.
suggesting something supernatural; uncanny.
Destiny, fate; the force that determines events from erde, having to do with Fate
very strange or unusual and difficult to explain (Oxford learner's dictionaries)--this one is good
of, relating to, or caused by witchcraft or the supernatural -- websters
Strikingly odd or unusual, especially in an unsettling way; strange: He lives in a weird old house on a dark street. Your neighbor is said to be a little weird. I felt a little weird after drinking that tea. --American Heritage
the last one I like the best

Yes, it is weird to take a partial quote out of context and stitch it together several times in one video. But as we have just learned, Trump, Vance, and their staff are weird.

Book banning, bathroom monitoring, get rid of the federal reserve, go crypto, send women back 100 years, declare the US a Christian nation…it’s all just strange, stupid and not reflective of who people are or aspire to be.
It is weird when your policies and platforms are only supported by 20% of the country and the other 80% think you’re bonkers.
