He is a Taliban-like character and represents the hopes of all disaffected white males. He’s just as vile If not viler than Trump, but not obsequious like Mike Pence was. It’s amazing the lengths that White Nationalists will go to keep Black people at bay. I am a white woman and I had no idea it was this bad.
And many in this country still have a fever dream of what they think is the typical poor white person--always rural, true patriots at heart, and always deserving of second chances.
Perhaps a way to counteract all those disaffected white males is for the Democratic Party to put forward a black woman for President. It is time for Biden to flip the ticket. He must run for his third term as Vice President, Kamala must run as President.
I'll admit that I don't know the best way forward, but it is clear that the Democratic party is on its heels and must bring a strong counter if it hopes for its candidate--whoever that might be--to win.
I had never heard of Catholic integralism until I saw your Instagram post this morning. JD Vance as VP is very bad news indeed. I read on Ally Henny’s page that he refers to himself as Scots-Irish, which may be an uninformed statement of his heritage, but has historical ties to people linking themselves with the Klan. I didn’t know that before this morning either!
Because of his aggressive rhetoric and his alignment with Trump against NATO and Ukraine support (among other 'white populist' factors), I believed that Vance was almost a shoo- in for VP. If there had been a *chance* other candidates could've been the VP, the reaction to the failed attempt on Trump's life-- "come out swinging"-- meant that Vance was inevitable. Not to mention the 'younger generation" factor.
