How could you have watched the debate and believe Joe Biden is mentally fit for the presidency? No, there's nothing that interesting in his Venmo contact. I really did mean this as a reminder to people. And could you move on from the Biden thing? It's really a pretty commonly held view if you'd get out more often. People have mentioned Nate Silver here as a pundit guru. I like reading him. Guess what? He goes away beyond me, thinking that Biden is in seriously bad physical/mental health. And yet he says he would vote for Biden over Trump in a heartbeat if that's the choice he's given.

I have no problem with never-Trumpers. There are millions of them. The idea that a single one of them would watch that debate and afterward declare Biden mentally fit for the most important job in the world is so ridiculous that it merits mockery.
Tiberius Posted July 20 Posted July 20 Oh ya, he will really fix those hill billies and give them a work ethic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillbilly_Elegy Alongside his personal history, Vance raises questions about the responsibility of his family and people for their misfortune. Vance blames hillbilly culture and its supposed encouragement of social rot. Comparatively, he feels that economic insecurity plays a much lesser role. To lend credence to his argument, Vance regularly relies on personal experience. As a grocery store checkout cashier, he watched welfare recipients talk on cell phones, although the working Vance could not afford one.[2] His resentment of those who seemed to profit from poor behavior while he struggled, especially combined with his values of personal responsibility and tough love, is presented as a microcosm of the reason for Appalachia's overall political swing from strong Democratic to strong Republican affiliations. Likewise, he recounts stories intended to showcase a lack of work ethic, including the story of a man who quit, after expressing dislike over his job's hours and posted to social media about the "Obama economy", as well as a co-worker, with a pregnant girlfriend, who would skip work.[2]

Go figs. 1 1
BillsFanNC Posted July 20 Posted July 20 From Findings link: Quote Among them is Amalia Halikias, government relations director at the Heritage Foundation—the conservative think tank coordinating the controversial Project 2025. Wait I thought Project 2025 is Trump's thing? What's this nonsense about the Heritage Foundation?
Tiberius Posted July 21 Posted July 21 And he wants to ban all abortions even if the women was raped? What a scum bag. He will lose

The Frankish Reich Posted July 21 Author Posted July 21 It strikes me that Vance has one seriously underestimated talent: the ability to suck up to his bosses in the most committed way. How does a kid from a small town with a broken family sign up for the Marines after high school and wind up with a cushy assignment doing publicity/"reporting" for the Marine Corps? How does a kid from a state school somehow become the protege of law prof/author Amy Chua (of the best-selling Tiger Mom book)? How does a kid from Yale Law not follow the standard Yale Law career path - the one followed by his wife, clerking for top federal judges - but instead becomes the protege of billionaire Peter Thiel, never practicing law at all and despite having no background in finance/venture capital? And how does this same young man viciously criticize charlatan Donald Trump only to become a truer believer in Trumpism than Trump himself? He is smart and talented, but face facts: some of that talent is a rare talent at bs and sucking up to the rich and powerful. He is hugely ambitious, and now at 39, without any real record of success in any actual job (other than as a memoirist) he now finds himself the leading candidate to be president in 2029, if not sooner (Trump is no spring chicken). There's some good stories out there about his meteoric rise that we'll be hearing more about as the campaign continues. 1

He barely won in a pretty red state where the governor got 60% of the vote. He's trying to suck up to the Hill Billies and such, but that will only get you so far. I'm betting he is a flash in the pan
