7. VANCE is even WORSE than MOST Trump supporters, since he knew from the beginning

what Trump was, but he sold out his own convictions for the sake of political power
(which too many Republican politicians have done):


AI Overview
In 2016, J.D. Vance was a vocal critic of Donald Trump, labeling himself a "Never Trump guy" and calling him "unfit for our nation's highest office". His comments, made in interviews, op-eds, and on social media, included comparing Trump to "America's Hitler," but Vance has since expressed regret for his past criticism.
Key quotes and comments from 2016
"I'm a 'Never Trump' guy. I never liked him." Vance made this remark during an interview with Charlie Rose in October 2016 while promoting his memoir, Hillbilly Elegy.

Likened Trump to Hitler: In private messages to a former roommate in February 2016, Vance wrote that he went "back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon... or that he's America's Hitler".

"Trump is cultural heroin." In a July 2016 article for The Atlantic, Vance described Trump as a "new pain reliever" for frustrated communities, but one that would ultimately "not fix what ails them".

"I can't stomach Trump." In an August 2016 interview with NPR, Vance stated that he intended to vote third-party because he was repulsed by Trump and thought he was "leading the white working class to a very dark place".

"Mr. Trump is unfit for our nation's highest office." Vance wrote this in a New York Times op-ed in April 2016.

"My god what an idiot." In a now-deleted tweet from 2016, Vance criticized Trump with this comment.

On Trump and Christians: Following the release of the Access Hollywood tape in October 2016, Vance posted a now-deleted tweet lamenting the defense of Trump by some Christians: "Fellow Christians, everyone is watching us when we apologize for this man. Lord help us".
--------------------------------

Vance not only sold out his convictions, but his personal religious convictions,
for the benefit of his personal anti-christ, TRUMP.... 'Deplorable', indeed.

9. Not just power, but also money, status, and ego. Look at all his fancy vacations with 14-car

motorcades. They shut down freaking Disneyland for him and his family.
