I’m tempted to say that the JD Vance we saw last night—measured, agreeable—is the real JD Vance. But why would I come to that conclusion? Because I’ve also seen angry JD Vance, haughty JD Vance, condescending and combative JD Vances. I’ve seen JD Vance make up lies and then double down on the lies. I’ve seen him attack, without reason, childless women. I’ve seen him pretend to be a dog owner.
“I walked away last night wishing that JD Vance were less in thrall with his Great Replacement Theory brethren, and more in touch with people who would have loved him for whoever he actually used to be.”I was grateful for last night’s civil debate. Grateful for a lack of name-calling. I thought everybody did a good job. Hopefully, they let Reek sleep in a big boy bed as a reward.
