I wasn’t sure it was the right choice at first, but I now realize it was brilliant.

    I really hope for once in his life he developed a conscience and actually realised that he’s not loved by the whole country. Indeed maybe even realises that he’s very much hated by literally millions. One can but hope.

      As someone who was raised by narcissists, I can assure you that it is literally impossible for Trump to reach any sort of epiphany.

      You cannot guilt trip people like him; his brain simply can not process self-reflection. In his own mind, he is flawless; his shortcomings will always be someone else’s fault. He’ll just blame his campaign team or the democrats for the low turnout. Or just pretend that it was a “big beautiful parade” and brag about his “crowd size” again.

      He will never realize that. That’s not even a concept for him.

          He will be lucky to last another year, things could be looking up. The Reaper is only a few steps behind him as we speak

              Vance has like zero charisma. At least Trump was good at channeling some people’s anger, but Vance can’t do that in the same way. He seems too stuck up for the idiots that liked Trump bc he “talked like a normal guy” (re: idiot) but he’s also too annoying for everyone else. I’ve never met a Trumpie that actually liked Vance. The biggest danger with Vance is that he still has his mental faculties, unlike Trump. And that is quite a big danger

              Tldr things are shitty either way, just in different ways

                I think the whole Republican Party knows this, and would like to set it up to rule without elections. Yet another thing Trump telegraphed during the election.

            That would actually be the worst case scenario, if he dies then people who are psychopathic fascists without narcissistic personality disorders and obsessive needs to be liked will have power. We need this cunt to survive this term or we are never going to get this regime out of the seat of power.
