JD Vance is much much smarter than Trump. He’s probably smarter than most of the people that are in Trump’s administration (Trump seems to have a genius for picking really stupid sycophants)— but he has all the charisma of a slug or a bowl of snot. Somehow he manages to be one of the most disgusting human beings that has ever walked the Earth. He is as disgusting as Ted Cruz and good Lord that is saying something.

When Trump goes down either because he dies or somehow gets deposed (dying is much more likely) the knives are going to come out. And I get no sense that JD Vance is the kind of operator that is going to be able to withstand the brutal infighting that will ensue.
