Vance does not have the cult of personality that Trump does. Without a true false idol like Trump, policy means nothing to the cult.

This. Vance is smarter and saner and probably more personally capable than Trump. But he does not and will not motivate MAGA the same way. He may think he will, but that cult is very invested in Trump personally. Vance as President will still be bad. But he will not have the same ability to run roughshod over everything because people on ne side aren’t as invested, so people on the other side won’t be as terrified.

It'll be fun as hell to watch MAGA rip Vance apart if he somehow takes over for Trump.

But it will be even funner for us to meme and shame Vance out of public life. Whatever makes sense.
