So why do they keep sending

Vance on vacation when it looks like trump is on his last leg? I don't get it. Shouldn't they be getting him ready? So I'm assuming this sending him on vacation is part of his grooming, but what?

no way on earth they let Vance actually run anything... ever. Even if the gets in the Oval Office, the architects of this mess will be able to go on about their evil deeds... Vance isn't strong or smart enough to stop anybody from doing anything.

Miller in particular is running the show. His group of cohorts are aware that Vance, like some maga republicans, are thinking about the post-felon era. This includes the period between the mid-terms and 2028 presidential election.

Not a joke: Steve Bannon has told a few associates that he is considering running. I consider this strong evidence of decay.
