    Vance once called trump, "America's Hitler." However, Therefore, I believe Vance is now America's opportunistic Himmler.
  • @lolowilderkind
    Revenge for what? This country has given these men everything!
  • @dannmarceau
    Imagine joining in and voting for people who want to take your rights and freedoms away.
  • @greentara291
    Precisely. Not your standard flip flopper, but an angry dude with a chip on his shoulder....reminds me of a certain Supreme Court Justice.
  • @femlite07
    Vance's moral compass is more like a whirly gig
  • @pmclaughlin4111
    I like state senator McLoren. He's articulate and analytical
  • @bellagirlgirl8827
    Vance's views on Trump were right the first time. However, it's hard to ignore the MAGA tsunami, and Vance probably figured he should ride the wave.

    I am not a psychologist but it seems that Vance has not recovered from his childhood trauma 😮. SMH
  • @ziziroberts8041
    Vance is Bizarro Superman and Speaker Johnson is Bizarro Clark Kent. Musk is Bizarro Lex Luther. Trump is Bizarro Chucky. It doesn't get any worse than this.

    JDV was complimenting Trump when he called him Hitler. Trump is bathing in the sunshine of this JDV comment. He loves it.
  • @MrSeanfrisco
    That was enlightening. Absolutely terrifying. But enlightening. Thank you Josh McLaurin for the incisive insights into JD Vance's ideological trajectory.
