    He’s not stupid.

    If anything, he’s gloating.

    “… and what are you gonna do about that?”

    Nothing. JD is a 4chan shit poster with a Yale degree and pretty high competency at whipping basically the Asmongold fandom into being gungho for MAGA, that’s why he is VP, its a reward for being such a good Republican/Trumper online psyop commander.

    He, extremely intentionally, helped build the media environment he is here commenting on.

        I mean Vance was definitely groomed and created by Thiel, but its possible he’ll develop his own set of goals and strategies at some point.

        Its also possible you’re correct, that he’ll become irrelevant should he not develop his own independent sensd of political savvy, or maybe due to basically him getting particularly savagely scapegoated and clusterfucked, if that ends up being more beneficial to more people in his milieu.
