I'm just old enough to remember when Jerry Ford took over from Nixon, and I tend to see JD as Ford 2.0: a nobody, a joke, a bumbling buffoon who sweeps up after the operatic villain has left the stage.

Yeah. Ford was a basically decent person, a bit dull. Vance is not. Vance is a compulsive liar. I think his wife is running him, and who knows what she thinks?

oh you KNOW she loathes him and the feeling is mutual. She also probably holds the upper hand in that household.

I mean, the reason Nixon picked Ford after Agnew resigned was precisely because he was an affable nobody.

Vance is neither, though.
