He’s a flip flopper - nothing out of his mouth is real… that’s probably why Trump is so enamored with him.
Nobody hates the poor like the newly wealthy.
Aristopopulist is a term I’ve never heard before and it really englobes that phenomenon of far right bourgeois and aristocrats trying to fish working class votes. That’s nice to know.
JD Vance can promise blood in the streets, and I’m confident he can fulfil his promises. If you’re invested in the immiseration of your neighbors at the enrichment of your bosses, this guy is going to deliver for you in spades.
Guys like Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis have already demonstrated their ability to churn out the vile and destructive policies, aimed directly at their state’s most vulnerable populations. They only seem to get more entrenched within their base after each newly constructed migrant torture center or book burning ceremony or anti-abortion inquisition.
Vance wants to take this to a national scale.
I don’t think he even knows what that means
That word… It’s so contradictory.
…and yet so apt - though it probably applies to Trump even more than to Vance: Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and yet able to tell (sort of) regular people what they want to hear. They could probably have used this skill for Good, but that’s not where they went. Sometimes I wonder whether they think they did.
The Republican party hasn’t had a real plan in a decade.
2016’s only platform was to Lock Up Hilary (?) and Build That Wall.

If there’s any hope for a real labor movement in this country, Americans are going to have to stop hating one another in order to rally against their corrupt, incompetent bosses in a united front.
But I can guarantee the folks posting “WOKECRATS! ROFLMAOLZ!” aren’t going to be shoulder to shoulder with any of their working class brethren on that picket line.

Yes, yes. “Read Settlers”.
But the empire is coming home, and the American consumer is being retrofitted into the new subject of proletarianization. Meanwhile, American plutoarchs are looking for a new capital - New Zealand, Singapore, perhaps Dubai - and pulling out of their old North American enclaves. The renewed demand for US industrial labor is creating pressure for a new American labor movement.
