Rachel Maddow reviews the remarkably sparse qualifications J.D. Vance offers both as a campaign partner and as a potential vice president (and even a senator), and points out Vance's interest in changing the American system of government, which is the qualification that most appeals to Donald Trump, confident of a win.

    I'm still so confused on why the media keeps talking like Trump is a mastermind or making the decisions. 2016 Trump did not pick Pence, the Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not pick 3 Supreme Court Justices. Trump did not pick any federal judges. The Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not write Project 2025. The Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not pick Vance. The Heritage Foundation has made every single choice for Trumps campaigns and presidency, and they will continue to fo just that.

    But I was told white privilege wasn’t a thing…..
  • Let’s start talking about and investigating how they plan to overturn the election results this time.
  • @awsomgamer5605
    None of this is surprising....America is in absolute disarray .
  • @Sssmaug
    I'm totally insulted on behalf of J.R.R. Tolkien & his magnificent literary works. 🤬
  • @joaneskins6510
    How long do you figure until J.D. Vance is either thrown under the bus by Trump or he goes to prison?
  • You forgot the health insurance system that Vance started in Ohio that also closed without paying out for any insurance people had bought from this company.
  • @mnh1956
    JD Vance is a part of the Heritage Foundation and project 2025.

    Excuse me, do you renember who said: "I can't stomach Trump", "He is nauseous", "He is leading the white working class to a very dark place", "I am a never Trump guy", "Trump can be the America's Hitler".... Do you remember now little VP?
  • @dannmarceau
    It couldn't have happened had it not been for oxymoronically named Citizen's United.
  • @1275karie
    Why do I feel like everything I know about J. D.Vance has been against my will? He came out of nowhere.
  • @KJ-wh8fu
    Ugh. Tolkein is spinning in his grave, having been co-opted by the far right. Barf. I had no idea.😢
  • @geo4256
    Citizens United led to this. They knew it would.

  • @jimbreck6275
    Thank you for sharing your thoughts about J.D Vance and how he got where he is today. If in fact what you said about America's future is correct we truly need to make a stand to survive.
  • @JamesTXN
    His qualifications: male, white and can kiss rich backside. Poor Tim Scott, Little Marco and Nikki, they never had a chance.
  • @richardasmus834
    I saw and listened to JD Vance’s speech tonight. It was clear that he has no idea who Donald Trump is.
