Yeah and I don’t know exactly what the calculus was here.
I think there’s a lot of skepticism about Trump’s appointments, because they were so bad in his first term.
Vance might be a signal that he learned something from that and won’t pick a bunch of establishment hacks this time.

I thought he would have picked his kids. Thinking of succession and all.

That’s always struck me as silly. Americans hate that sort of thing. It would make no sense electorally.

Everyone knows this is his last term. He will eventually have to pass the torch. And I dont really see him passing the torch to anyone other than his family.

Populist movements don’t usually have sustained success. The GOP will continue on like normal after Trump is gone.

Of course, but I think Trump will try to take advantage of the fact. I wouldnt put it past him.

Of course he'll try to leverage it. His kids may not be interested. If they were, I'd expect them to have run for senate or governor by now.

Primaries, but he never contended. Lasted about as long as a drop of water on a hot skillet.
