What Might the MAGA King Be? JD will tell you...

Ha. An example of the sad state of our present political zeitgeist. JD Vance, Senator from Ohio, has been added to the Republican ticket as VP. Who is JD Vance? Well, he is a guy who really, really knows who and what the MAGA King is all about. JD is all in, soul, conscience, and any moral compass be damned. As JD says, Trump might be "America's Hitler." Yikes. Fuck. That sounds bad. Hell, JD said it, not me. There's more...


"He is very young—just 39—and has held an elected office for just 18 months, making him notably inexperienced for someone in contention for the vice presidential slot, especially behind a 78-year-old presidential nominee. In the past, he was a never-Trumper, saying that Trump “might be America’s Hitler,” “might be a cynical a**hole,” and is “cultural heroin,” “noxious,” and “reprehensible,” but he came around to embrace the Big Lie that the 2020 election was stolen and to say that if he had been vice president on January 6, 2021, he would have done what former vice president Mike Pence would not: he would have refused to count the certified electoral ballots for President Joe Biden."

There's more: 

JD Vance in 2016: “I can’t stomach Trump. I think that he’s noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place … What Trump has done is change the focus of the white working class from an engaged and constructive politics to a politics of pointing the finger.”

So, yeah, JD, seems to know pretty definitely who and what Trump is, and well, of course, he is all in. He wants to bend the knee to someone he thinks is noxious, reprenhensible, & cultural heroin. What kind of person does that make JD? I have run out of toxic descriptors.

Make America Fascist. The mind reels. Good grief. Dare I say it? We can do better!
