Hearing more and more the Trump campaign is livid over JD Vance and are blaming Don Jr. and Eric. Lots of panic right now behind the scenes. Apparently Burgum was going to be Trump’s choice and then Jr/Eric went “bat shit” and so did Trump’s billionaire tech bro buddies.

His love seat is definitely somewhere between homosectional and bisectional.

As a gay man, we really don't want him. Fortunately I've seen no evidence of a gay-bed.

And I had read on here a while back that Donald had assigned Jr to be the one to VET all the loyalist to be assigned into the thousands of jobs Trump was going to overturn.
Wonder if daddy is questioning Jr’s judgement.
Sane people realize he is an idiot.
Vance proves it. Also the bubble lipped Gargoyle he Rides.

I think they are in a free fall because the Harris changed the calculation. Vance was the “we got this, just rub it in their faces” pick.

Whether he did it for money from Theil and other backers, or as a favor to Putin, or because Vance seemed like a fool eager to please Trump in any way, Trump owns the decision. Why Trump can get away with saying stupid to batshit insane stuff and Vance cannot is beyond me, but it appears Vance it not getting a pass.
