Mere hours after Donald Trump ordered strikes on Iran’s nuclear program last June, his vice president appeared on two separate Sunday shows to hail the success of the mission. JD Vance was so effusive that he used the word “incredible” or “incredibly” four times in less than one minute.
Within hours of Trump’s operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in January, Vance was on X posting a combative defense of the legality of the operation.
It’s now been two weeks since Trump launched a war with Iran, and Vance has yet to offer anything like these public votes of confidence.
If trump gets impeached & removed after the midterms, he wants to look better than trump when he becomes president. But Americans know that everyone in Trump’s government is utter trash, they can never be redeemed.
There is a non-zero chance that right wing billionaires orchestrate an impeachment to replace Trump with Vance if he keeps footbulleting his way into deep unpopularity. They would let Trump, Hegseth et al be the scapegoat for the unpopular stuff while trying to rebrand back to a faux moderate position.
Yes, we know how easily Vance changes personalities.
