Okay guys, the pool is open, we are now taking bets on how long it will take before Trump will throw this little shit stain under his bus.
I say in under 6 months
While that article has some good, relatable points, Vance still managed to be elected, so there are a lot of people that won't be swayed by this at all. Maybe some of the Democratic voters that didn't vote last time will take this as an incentive to go vote.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
This is because Trump’s two other reported finalists for the job, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum and Florida Senator Marco Rubio, each boasted positive qualities that could have shored up the former president’s known weaknesses.
They said: “You come within inches of having your head turned inside-out, and two days later the guy you pick for the job of being alive in the event you are dead is the millennial freshman who has exactly one election and two years in the Senate under his belt?
Democrats and Democratic-aligned groups are salivating over the opening provided by Trump’s tapping the Buckeye State senator as his number-two, citing what they described to The Independent as a smorgasbord of opposition research that will be used to make Vance politically toxic to persuadable swing voters within a matter of weeks.
In a statement, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd said Vance is joining Trump in “running on an extreme Project 2025 agenda – and the American people deserve to know that they’re planning to rip away their health care, gut Social Security, strip their reproductive freedoms, and shill for big corporations on the backs of working families.”
One person involved in an anti-Trump political committee told The Independent that voters can expect to see significant opposition research deployed against Vance to paint him as “too damn weird.”
“Vance was essentially created in a lab by Peter Thiel,” the person said, referring to the PayPal co-founder and major Republican donor who has funded numerous “new right” political candidates.

Oh he'll fit just fine
