One difference is that Taney acknowledged that the view he was articulating was racist.

I suppose there’s one thing to be said for the Confederates & their sympathizers in the 19th cen, it’s that they didn’t even pretend that they saw black people as anything other than some sort of subhuman species distinct from the (white) human race. MAGA is pretty open abt racism but not that open.

JD Vance has done so in everything but flat out saying he is racist.

What does he think will happen to his own children? What is his justification for other’ism? His wife’s family? He will not be able to insulate all of them.

I think he's more than willing to enter into the cabal of people who are estranged from their children because they're a bigot.

He acts like a devoting and attentive father. 🤷♀️

If I had a nickel for every "Christian" who pretends to be one, I'd be able to retire comfortably.

For some, kids are status symbols or brownie points with gawd.

he ran with a pedophile. his wife is simply a cover, whether or not she knows it.

We must’ve had very different models of what it means to be devoted, or attentive. I am so sorry for you, that you look at a man like that, a man who clearly cares only about himself, and think that represents anything related to love .
