11. Vance Is A Problem
Sun Dec 14, 2025, 01:45 PM
Dec 2025

When Trump kicks off, Vance will not garner enough support from the tech bros and the Maga rubes to be presented as a unified front-running candidate. So this may represent a way to further fragment this party which continues to be burdened with internal power struggles. Even though they have tons of dark money, it may not be spent in ways sufficient to unite the party at the polls. So I say make them fight each other and dilute their assets. So there's hope for a Dem sweep of future ballots but Dems must be able to vote as one with overwhelming numbers.
