    Vance may be smarter than Trump (my laundry pile is smarter than Trump), but he doesn’t have the same support. The reason DJT gets away with so much is because Republicans need the support of his massive base of maga freaks. They’re uninformed, hateful, violent… but they’re loyal.

      Yeah but that’s the thing: Vance doesn’t need support from the magats. He’s been elected already.

      If you impeach Trump tomorrow, you impeach a dangerous idiot who doesn’t really believe in any of this shit but is in for the grift, and you replace him with someone who’s a lot more intelligent and actually does believe in some of the most egregious and fascistic MAGA talking points.

        All true, but Vance is not God Almighty to MAGA people, and he wouldn’t have absolute support on everything from the Republican Congress.
