J. D. Vance on Kamala the Chameleon

Under three minutes. 

Look, Dana, she's not running a political campaign. She's running a movie. She only speaks to voters behind a teleprompter. Everything is scripted. She doesn't have her policy positions out there. She hasn't answered why she wanted to ban fracking, but now she doesn't. She wanted to defund the police, but now she doesn't.

She wanted to open the border, but now she doesn't. She should have to answer for why she presents a different set of policies to one audience and a different set of policies to another audience. And I think that's what President Trump is getting at. This is a fundamentally fake person. She's different depending on who she's in front of.

Spot on. The fatuous fem is a fake, a phony, a fraud.  Almost everything out of her mouth is either incoherent or vacuous.  Have you ever heard her say anything that was neither? Tell me what it was.

    In Canada we have got Trudeau winning two elections on messaging and behaviour very similar to Kamala’s. The point is to find a way to persuade the uncommitted voters that she and her VP are bad candidates. And the logically prior point to that is to understand the different types of uncommitted voters realizing that the usual MAGA talking memes and styles are not going to work for these guys. The key importance of Vance’s contribution to these goals is hard to underestimate…

    Dmitri,
    It is not clear to me what exactly you are saying in your penultimate sentence.
    It has become very clear to me, however, that Trump’s VP pick was exactly right. Initially, I preferred one of the others, the brilliant and super-articulate Ramaswamy in particular, who was just one of a field of outstanding candidates. (May they all end up in Trump’s cabinet.) But now, having read Hillbilly Elegy, and having seen some footage of Vance in action, I realize that Trump could not have made a better choice.

    It is time to start kicking some serious ass. Here is a call to arms. Be sure to check out Gutfeld’s tweet. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/08/we_need_a_badass_in_the_white_house.html
    >>Establishment Republicans would rather lose with honor and dignity than get their hands dirty and their noses bloodied in a street fight.
    Politics ain’t beanbag, as the expression goes, except to genteel Republicans who prefer the wimp approach of giving a pleasant concession speech as opposed to taking the badass approach and punching back twice as hard when attacked.<< That's right. I would add that mewling milquetoast RINOs such as Mitt Romney, aka 'Milquetoast Mitt', are WORSE than the filthy Dems who would support the likes of a Kamala or 'Tampon Tim' Walz.

    I over-complicated a simple point. Trump is not good at appealing to the undecided voters especially to the educated and merely conceiving of themselves as such. And he is not attractive to people who think that impeccable personal conduct is super important for the president’s job. And in these areas Vance should massively contribute complementing his boss.
