his work experience before he ran for Senate was as a writer, a pundit and a bunch of wingnut welfare conservative sinecures working for twisted billionaire oligarchs like Peter Thiel. Never ran anything in his life!

Sick Hunt, Dracones @scalehelix.net

that's why reporters love him so much, he's always just had a do-nothing job where he farts around group texts with his nazi friends like they do

This is why I think he's going to get eaten alive when Trump kicks the bucket. Anyone in the GOP with an ounce of ambition can see he's vulnerable. A black hole of charisma.

He’s been getting a lot of training on being a hand puppet for our god emperor overlord Peter Theil. That’s really the only qualification that matters.

A sample JD Vance work product: He was on the board of directors for a SPAC "vertical farming" company that was accused of massive labor law violations and has since gone bankrupt and delisted and now trades as a penny stock. Great job JD, I'm sure "most powerful person in the world" will go great!

spending his entire term in office in vacation instead of hanging out with Trump is the only relatable thing about Vance to me bsky.app/profile/matt...

Didn't he also have something to do with a company that killed, like, a BUNCH of monkeys?
