Exploit the people who believe crazy shit. Exactly what Vance is doing now that he’s sided with the demagogue.
Vance is even worse than a narcissist. He knows better and chooses to be evil for his own self-interest. I get why Trump likes him. He understands a life being driven by self-interest. And he knows Vance will burn everything down to advance he and Trump’s interests.
These people are the worst indeed. They know it's wrong, they know it's evil but they're still doing it and doubling down whenever they can, just to get some power.
Fucking sociopaths.
Vance was the liberal heartthrob until he went full MAGA so that he could become a senator.
As a self-associated 'liberal,' I'd never once even heard of the guy before Trump picked him. That said, I'm not from his state, and it seems like literally everyone there hates him, so maybe the two are related.
Either way, calling him a "heartthrob" might be embellishment.
If we are lucky he is a trojan horse. Doubt it, but we could dream
Oh, he is 100% a Trojan horse, but the people he's a Trojan horse for are just as bad. Basically every shitty money-man in Silicon Valley that imagined himself a Randian Superman.
