Interesting thoughts on what might have been. Sad choice by Vance to give up his independence for the support of Trump who would throw away our cherished democracy.

Good advice for, not just Vance, but virtually all Republican candidates.

It is not acceptable for candidates to “sell out” to Donald Trump to get elected. Show some integrity and reject the support of a man who still insists the election was stolen and incited an insurrection.

To me anyone siding with or saying they’re a Trumpster loses all credibility as a candidate for anything. Dog catcher, road commission…….. They’re a sellout. They’ve entrapped themselves. Not serving the general public. They’re serving a false idol out to destroy my country.

His book was excellent. Is he being pragmatic or a hypocrite. ?

Every time a candidate mentions they are a Trumper, they disappear from my voting list. I wonder if we will ever recover.

Excellent navigation of the mystery of Vance, a capable, insightful author who for whatever incomprehensible reason chose the low road rather than high road. And spot on assessment of the state if the U.S. Senate.
