J.D. Vance eclipses DeSantis — but he might want to watch his back

Raw Story  

Ron DeSantis must be madder than a wet hen, sick as a parrot, fit to be tied. You may know Vance from his 2016 memoir “Hillbilly Elegy” in which he congratulates himself for surviving Appalachian deprivation and his mother’s drug addiction to become a venture capital bro. But in 2021, Vance was running for U.S. Senate and needed Trump’s endorsement, so he slunk down to Mar-a-Largo, prostrated himself on the floor between the boxes of classified documents, and begged forgiveness from the man he once referred to as “America’s Hitler.” That’s just the kind of moral fiber we want to see in the vice president of the United States. ‘Class war’ But Vance is not only a wholly owned Trumper, he’s in thrall to “Project 2025,” embracing the racism, the cruelty, the science-denial, the arrogance, the authoritarianism, and especially the misogyny. On his podcast, Baby Nazi Nick Fuentes huffed, “Do we really expect that the guy who has an Indian wife and named their kid Vivek is going to support white identity?” But a little hatred directed at his wife and kids won’t stop the ambitious Vance.
