A Thread For ClydeR

Meh. I thought Vance was a mistake as soon as I heard Trump say his name.

When's the last time you voted based on who the VP is?

Never. But I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people who voted for Biden simply because his VP was a black woman.

True, it is the party of racism, sexism and misandry after all.

I hate to agree with Clyder on something, but I think Trump choosing Vance was a massive mistake, especially now that the Democrats decided to "save" democracy by dumping Biden.

Sure Harris could just be enjoying a honeymoon period at the moment and she might take a massive dive in the polls like Biden did, but she also has the DNC coming up and her announcing her VP pick which will probably give her a boost in the polls, especially if she chooses someone who has different policies than her and can appeal to other demographics.

Choosing Vance as his running mate was probably Trump's biggest mistake, and if (God forbid) he does lose it will be because he chose Vance instead of choosing someone who could appeal to other demographics. Trump basically chose a clone of himself who isn't really going to help him appeal to different voters.

I don't think anyone was sitting around saying "Gee, I was on the fence about Trump, but JD Vance? Call me a Trump voter!"

You're falling for the media spin.

Do you think those same people would suddenly vote Republican if Trump chose a black woman for VP?

There's 0% chance any of them would vote for Trump under any circumstances even if Lizzo were his VP.

There are also little to no real people who were going to vote for Trump and then changed their mind after he picked Vance.

If Trump wants to switch to a different VP, he has less than two weeks left to do it. Whom should he pick, or should he stick with Vance?

Another article on the same subject, this time from the New York Post..



Conservative outlets are pushing this story, no doubt hoping to influence one person with the power to make a change.

Strong condemnation of Vance's catlady comments from Trey Gowdy on FoxNews last night..

Gowdy basically said Vance needs to ask for forgiveness, instead of doubling down on the comments. Vance declined to ask.

I know a coordinated pressure campaign when I see one.

Voters intuitively know that, because Trump is the oldest presidential nominee ever, there is a higher than ever probability that, if Trump is elected, his vice president would have to assume office.

The Social Security Administration publishes actuarial estimates of dying within one year. The probability that someone Trump's age will die within one year is 5.3%. That probability increases each succeeding year, until it reaches 8% during Trump's last year in office. When you cumulate the probabilities, you'll see that President Vance is both a possibility and a probability. Those statistics are just about death. They don't even take disability into consideration.

That's why conservative media outlets are pushing this story.

At the link above, you can look up the probability that you will survive another year. Always fun.

I don’t think JD Vance really adds much to the ticket, but I also don’t view him as a liability. The VP really doesn’t do squat. Vance is a Trump mini-me on policies, so if something happened to Trump while in office I’d feel ok about Vance taking the job until the next Republican primary.
