Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131

people were shitting on Vance because he's a "non-strategic" pick, but I can imagine Trump's 2nd term is going to essentially be an administration of only people he feels like he can trust

I've been in the dark, but wasn't Vance a strategic pick due to his proximity to swing states

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:33 PM politics

no?

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:33 PM politics

he's a junior senator from Ohio

Polar_ Jul 21, 2024 3:34 PM politics

Then what was, if any, was the logic behind it

Polar_ Jul 21, 2024 3:34 PM politics

The swing state thing was told to me by my boomer dad

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:35 PM politics

Trump liked working with him, felt like he could trust him, liked his background in business, or something along those lines

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:35 PM politics

He's less of a snake than a lot of others he could have picked, and isn't so tied into politics that he'd feel the need to ever betray Trump for his own career

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:36 PM politics

There's no public reasoning for why he was picked, that's just my read on it

Spooky Phijkchu Jul 21, 2024 3:36 PM politics

I think after last time, Trump wanted a VP who would work with him, while not being a complete ass-kisser, and who wouldn't snake him

Dolfin Jul 21, 2024 3:44 PM politics

I expected Desantis tbh

Dolfin Jul 21, 2024 3:44 PM politics

or vivek but yeah

Dolfin Jul 21, 2024 3:45 PM politics

With this being his second term, trump has less to care about optics wise when he’s in the office

Dolfin Jul 21, 2024 3:45 PM politics

he can do whatever really, at least after the midterm election

Gent Jul 21, 2024 3:46 PM politics

I mean, Vivek kinda got his win this way

legorhin Jul 21, 2024 3:46 PM politics

VP is a fake job so Vivek in cabinet instead is good

Gent Jul 21, 2024 3:46 PM politics

(that's the name of vance's son)

Dolfin Jul 21, 2024 3:47 PM politics

I think Vivek would be better in the senate no?

Rusp Jul 22, 2024 3:35 PM politics

It pisses me off how there's about 10 different things that blatantly point to this being a complete setup that failed because god made emperor Trump just racist enough to want to look at the Mexican chart earlier than intended

Honestly I gotta give her credit, she's usually retarded but everything I've seen from her on the shooting was pretty sane and level headed

he might just be a health state that obligates the VP to invoke the 25th

probably would have to look at that "Rebuilding Economic Prosperity and Opportunity for Ukrainians Act" to know what kind of authority is being given, but reading legislation is a slog
