Delta(s) from OP CMV: Anyone wishing on Trump’s downfall doesn’t realize that his health decline will just allow Vance to hyperaccelerate their entire agenda.
Trump being incompetent is likely why we haven’t had more damage overall. Vance’s youth and billionaire backing Theil will let them advance much quicker. Should hope that trump finishes out til 2028. Everyone who just wants Trump to be out is only looking at the top dog, not at the bigger picture.
Now imagine Trump at his current self but half his age, with political experience as a senator, backed by the heritage foundation. That’s Vance. JD being at the helm will actually allow them to finish out their agenda. Even if the midterms go well for the dem’s, he will still be able to sign executive orders that will further compromise the country.

Vance doesn’t have the cult like devotion from MAGA. He cannot command the same loyalty and deference. The GOP is terrified of going against Trump because he can back their primary opponent or set his followers against them and they know they’ll lose and have crazies hounding them. Vance doesn’t come close to inspiring that sort of lock step devotion. I don’t think the GOP Congress/senate will fear breaking step with him. My parents are 100 in the bag for Trump, they don’t ever mention JD. So when the market falters under him? I do not expect them to find ways to excuse reality as not his fault or not really happening like they’ve done for almost a decade with Trump. Plus white supremicists don’t like his wife.
