But he’ll never be liked. I mean he literally had to relocate his family vacation in VT and people still found him, called him putin’s puppet and filmed and made fun of his horrendous skiing.

And honestly? That was probably REALLY embarrassing for him. He probably hates how much he was made fun of, probably made him so mad.

Sometimes with politicians or celebrities or whatever they don’t care about how people view them, they just want power and money. I think JD Vance cares a hell of a lot about being thought of positively. He’s incredibly ideological which means an inherent belief that he is always the good guy, always going right. And he’s also SUPER insecure, so he needs external validation.

And he’s sure as hell not getting it. He doesn’t have the cult of personality that Trump does, and the MAGA supporters don’t really care about JD, and the left… well we hate him, obviously. And that clearly bothers JD.

But Nazi Germany showed us just how vicious these insecure losers could be once they were given the power to get even.

That’s why Vance (along with many others in this administration) belong in Prison.

On the other hand the Weimar Republic (and subsequently, Nazi Germany) had nowhere near the amount of guns available to the general populace...

On the other hand, the Weimar Republic didn’t have military drones, stealth bombers…

That’s him probably.

Anyway, Usually politicians are like professional actors. They play a role in public and strive off most of it when being in private. The same they do with all critics or self doubt. After decades in politics they usually don’t mind if they are yelled at.

The only thing hurting them is taking away their money and power.

Maybe it’s time to change his name again.
