JD Vance will never be president. I said the same of DeathSantis four years ago. They are both unlikeable guys.
Vance will fade, and/or if history is any judge, Trump will eventually turn on him and burn him to the ground. No one puts baby in a corner ; )

The Supreme Court blocked the Trump regime 6-3 from deploying hundreds of National Guard troops in Chicago, citing an 1878 law which bans the use of the military for domestic policing. The ruling casts doubt on the viability of similar deployments in other U.S. cities. Hell, yeah 👏👏
