- Rachel Maddow reviews the remarkably sparse qualifications J.D. Vance offers both as a campaign partner and as a potential vice president (and even a senator), and points out Vance's interest in changing the American system of government, which is the qualification that most appeals to Donald Trump, confident of a win.

I'm still so confused on why the media keeps talking like Trump is a mastermind or making the decisions. 2016 Trump did not pick Pence, the Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not pick 3 Supreme Court Justices. Trump did not pick any federal judges. The Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not write Project 2025. The Heritage Foundation did. Trump did not pick Vance. The Heritage Foundation has made every single choice for Trumps campaigns and presidency, and they will continue to fo just that.
You got it friend, spread your word every day. THANKS!

Thiel
Wait, you believe MSNBC reporting?
Per Peter Thiel's quote that "Freedom is not compatible with democracy" he means "freedom for billionaires to do as they please is not compatible with democracy" because democracies have those pesky rules and laws that consider, at least in theory, everyone equal. Thiel thinks he is some kind of superhman ordained by providence and should be treated like a demigod. Thiel, Musk, Trump - they are all narcissists. Their success, rather than being something that instills gratitude in them, makes them believe they are superior in basic dignity and worth than anyone else. They obviously are more talented. They obviously are more successful. But they believe this translates as superior intrisic worth.
Thiel and others are not more talented he is just way more obsessed about having money, huge thirst for power and has no conscience unlike the average human.
Exactly.
Good to know your accept the Christian principle of the dignity of every human being.
Perfectly said. I agree 100%.

Don’t know much about Vance but watched the Netflix movie about him. I always find it odd how the movie depicts his mother as a pill stealing nurse but when speaking as a politician blames her addiction on open borders. No mention of big pharma handing out OxyContin like it was candy.
According to the book that Vance wrote himself, he said that the reason his family was in such a sad state, was NOT due to Joe Biden, (as Vance said at that Convention) but because of other factors not related to Biden nor the Dems. So the statements told by Vance at that Convention (eg: blaming Dems and Joe for all BAD things) do not match what he said in his own book.
It's always someone else's fault.
He lies just like Trump, that’s why Trump picked him. Obviously he contradicted in his speech what he wrote in his own book regarding his mother’s addiction. Oh my!
Because it doesn’t fit the narrative?

@@nking516 Thiel would fund Trump with or without Vance.
@@JimBalter Yes, but installing a puppet at the seat of power to get your agenda enacted is a great return on your money if you are driven by a desire to control society. Further, Trump is 78 and may not live 4 years so Vance could take over the entire operation. Also, if he does live, Vance would be in prime position to get elected to the Presidency as the incumbent VP.
JD Vance is a part of the Heritage Foundation and project 2025.
"When President Trump has spoken of the country as
trapped in a losing game of international trade
or decried the carnage on so many American
streets, he has earned criticism for painting
an overly pessimistic view of his own country.
Yet that pessimism struck a chord with many
Americans, including those who did not vote
for him." - JD Vance - Heritage Foundation 2017
Vance wrote this just a year into Trump's presidency, already showing he had changed his mind about him. Vance is not "part" of the Heritage Foundation. I checked, but has written for their publications. And why not? In 2017 The President of the Heritage Foundation was a Black Woman, Kay Coles James, the current VP is an Afro-Latino from Columbia. Weirdest collection of white nationalists i've ever heard of.
Just beacuse you say it enough doesnt mean its true
I was already going to vote for him and Trump, you don't need to make him sound even more based.
Did he also make a cameo in the notorious Trump Pee tape?
Maddow will surely get to the bottom of this caper 😂
@josephthomssen4049 that's just how these people operate. They thought Biden was sharp she on his game when they were told so. Then when that same media a week later said he's old and mentally unfit they agreed. They have no cognitive thought, no independent research, they have been raised to parrot the opinion of someone else. Conditioned, one night even say indoctrination, they believe what they want to believe regardless of facts and will ignore actual facts if need be to protect their own psych from the thought that their opinion could be wrong or that the voice leading them may not have their best interest at hand. However, surprisingly I've met many who , well I didn't think was possible, woke up so to speak. One way for another they saw a lie or disagree and it caused them to did, and digging led them to more lies they once believed.
Thiel, who is also a self-loathing homosexual who intentionally destroyed gawker after they outed him, must have a big huge crush on J.D. Vance.

It's crazy how many right wing bigots enjoy sci-fi and fantasy.
I still can't figure out why sci-fi and fantasy appeals to bigots.
It was irresponsible of Maddow to make that association without putting it into context. It's almost as bad as using the term "Christian" Nationalists without explaining that they don't have anything to do with Christ or his teachings --- they're just using the name because they think it makes them look cool.
Absolutely. The elvish rings were kept hidden and used for good. The ring Narya was given to Gandalf to use to help save Middle Earth.
Citizens United led to this. They knew it would.
They sure did. Now we have a far better idea of why this was so!
Just think , if we repeal citizens united , the right will have to win elections to be in congress instead of just buying them !

Vance is now a paid for senator. He can't oppose anything Thiel wants. I wonder how many other congressmen "belong" to Thiel. Thiel is a smart man. He is protecting his financial future. His savings are the political figures he has invested on. He probably was influential in getting Usha Vance's clerkships with Supreme Court justices Roberts and Kavanaugh. There is definitely deep political debt in Vance's family.

He's not incompetent. Rachel completely misrepresents him. He made to Yale with Zero connections. He only made connections once he got to Yale, and he deserved those connections in part because he came from such a hard life. Read his book and watch his pre-nomination interviews yourself. He is nuanced. He understands structural problems in the US and the difficult balance between offering help vs. creating a culture of learned helplessness. He understands that solving these problems is difficult. He leans right, but he listens and understands the left. I find it refreshing that we on the left will finally have someone intelligent to debate these issues with.
@@mweschHe is smart. He's saw how Trump's populism was appealing to authoritarian followers and even denounced it. Then he saw how successful Trump was, and decided to emulate that strategy. But unlike Trump, Vance is very calculating and intentional.
He's also a convert to an extremely reactionary version of Catholicism. He literally thinks that orthodox Catholic dogma should be integral to US law... A particular form of extreme Christian Nationalism called Catholic Integralism.
PS: Trump's success might well have pushed him into his views against representative government. Trump has gotten a lot of liberals questioning if the US will survive as a democratic republic too. Heck, Ben Franklin's "a Republic, if you can keep it" quote is relevant. Well, Vance apparently thinks we can't... But that's a good thing (or at least good for him)

@@williamyoung9401Not to be that nerd (lol) but none of the Elven rings were forged by Sauron. The 3, including Narya, were forged in secret by the Elves once they discovered Annatar’s evil influence.

That helps me to understand why he took such a heal turn after his book came out. Because the guy from his book who did interviews with NPR and talked about Trump being a bad person is not the same guy that we have with us now.

Tolkien is rolling in his grave. He was against industrialism, advancement for the sake of advancement and power were toxic to him. His work is about equality, healthy masculinity, and standing up for the small guy. Wow! 😢
Agreed
They co-opt everything to fit their narrative.
When a german publisher mailed Tolkien for the purpose of translating and publishing his recent Book Bilbo in 1938, they asked whether or not Tolkien was a jewish name. Tolkiens replied that "Sadly no. Jews are a great people and I am sadly not one of them"
Yes, a lot of accomplished writers have liberal ivory tower views...they have that luxury. Meanwhile, because of the industrial revolution, world poverty has shrunk. From 1980 to present, world poverty has been cut in half. I love Tolkein and creative people, but they sometimes live in a parallel universe.

I can tell ya this…..If these men are successful, I give it 6 months…if that…and this pawn will be POTUS. I’m an old woman, but I have five sons and 5-1/2 ☺️ grandchildren (two granddaughters) and I’m very anxious. I became an evangelical fundamentalist in CA in ‘81, early on in this current CN movement. I got out years ago, and when I saw which “christian” leaders were by *his* side, it made me ill. It really was going to happen. I wish people had listened to me and others in 2015, instead of calling us overly dramatic. But they didn’t, so we are here now and we’ll see how it goes. It all seems very coordinated as events have unfolded over the past three weeks thereabouts (and I mean including some Dems, as well).
I will also say that, as a native hillbilly, I didn’t appreciate Vance’s fraudulent “memoir” and couldn’t stomach more than 15 minutes of that awful movie (wth Ron Howard?). It was insulting to many of us.
Isn’t Vance his maternal grandparents’ name? I hear he’s changed his name a couple of times. Idk if that’s true, but it would be in keeping with these conmen and their puppet masters.
Yes. He changed his name several times.

I couldn't agree more with you.
Didn’t want to go there… but…🤔
Exactly!
J.D. Vance is nothing more than a professional loser. In fact, he was chosen by Peter Thiel, his longtime supporter, who gave him all the jobs in his would-be career. Because Vance failed miserably in all these jobs, he is now completely dependent on Peter Thiel, a veritable puppet.
Thiel very likely expects Trump to fail in one way or another (mentally or physically) during his time in office and Vance will have to take over the job. Then Thiel would be the unelected but extremely influential president in the background, because he has Vance completely in his hands.
Gee, i am 68, hungry, everything is hundred dollars, i dont make enough money, medication, constantly needing doctors. All because someone didnt get their shots when my mom was pregnant with me German measles 1956...stay healthy, get your shots to help elderly and pregnant women kids.

Blame Biden! He is the worst president in history!
Im sorry to hear about your health issues regarding the German measles. Please read up on the mrna vaccines. Dr. John Campbell right here has a fantastic channel with medical research from various countries (not the USA though) that proves how dangerous the covid vaccine has been. Be well and God bless you.
What a kind and thoughtful person you are would you run for office that's what we need @@barbj9785
In 1956 there was no regular vaccine against measles.
I wish you would have mentioned Vance net worth when he joined the Senate and what he's worth now due to the insider trading
Yup like Pelosi worth 250 million
Wonder how much MTG was worth after trading all that stock in the pharma companies she bought when the vaccine was being developed (which she was so against btw. She didn’t buy the stocks because she was for it)
Vance got rich being a crook
Did they say that Vance said he was a never trumper and that Trump was unfit to run a country and he was the American Hitler, so why did they give him the VP job none of Trumps fans like Vance something is not right.
maybe he was mentored by Crime Boss Nancy Pelosi and Mad Maxine Waters ohhhhhhhh and who can forget good ol Billy Clinton and his visits to Epstein's Young Love Island
J. D. Vance has literally reversed All of his political "beliefs" from a ridiculously short time ago.
Its Called waking up to the BS of the Democrat party.

@@violahamilton782 True. The turning point was when Trump got into office in 2016 and did a good job, which was powerful enough to change Vance's view.
