We speak with journalist Robert Kuttner about Donald Trump’s selection of Ohio Senator J.D. Vance to be his running mate in the 2024 election. Vance rose to fame in 2016 after writing the memoir Hillbilly Elegy about his upbringing in Appalachia. He was elected to the Senate in 2022 with the backing of right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel, who spent $10 million on his candidacy. While he was a vocal critic of Trump’s politics, once comparing him to Hitler, Vance has since embraced the MAGA movement and is now one of the most vocal defenders of the former president. Vance’s elevation is “very dangerous” because it lets Republicans pretend to care about working-class voters, says Kuttner, co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect. “Vance is much more effective at connecting Trump’s cultural and social and racist populism to what looks like pocketbook populism, except it’s a fake,” he says. “We are really screwed if we can’t find somebody who can beat this ticket - and the ticket is beatable. You just need a stronger candidate than Biden.”

What is really worrying is the number of people who completely flip their moral compass in pursuit of power and recognition. I include Nikki Haley in this. When one stands in front of anyone, including oneself, and one can spin one's own moral compass on a dime, what hope is there?

Vance wrote a book about how miserable his life growing up was. As an adult he didn't work to make anything better for those stuck in his same situation, instead he went into private equity. You know, private equity, that financial mechanism that extracts the most amount of value from a business, and transfers that wealth to the few general partners. Everyone loses - the business, the employees, the local consumers, the tax payers.... everyone except for the general partners of course!

I’ve read Project 2025 and I don’t see what you’re freaking out about! 1)Reducing school lunches? We throw away the majority of those lunches. My sister who is an office manager at an elementary school has told me they throw away the majority of the food supplied all over California. 2)Reduce SNAP benefits? Too many people are on the dole in this country. We are paying for people that could be working and are sucking of the government teat! Only those who really need it should get it, like our mentally ill and disabled who can’t support themselves. 3)Outlawing pornography? That would be a good thing for this nation and it will probably reduce sexual crimes, too! 4)Stopping government funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting? Half a billion dollars are squandered on leftist opinion each year. Why should conservatives be forced to pay for the suppression of its own views. As Thomas Jefferson put it, “To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical.” It would be absolutely fantastic if they did this. Why should we pay for this? Pay for your own opinionated programming. Only public service announcements should be paid for Just from these few proposals, our costs would be reduced. I don’t see anything wrong with any of that. Do you? Just what are you afraid of? You have much more to fear from Agenda 2030 and the GrEaT rEsEt. Check out the prison you’ll be in if those elites get reelected!

If you really wanna worry about something important, pay attention to the World Economic Forum, Blackrock, the Military Industrial complex, George Soros, Bill Gates and all these criminal globalists.

@@suew4609​​⁠ Whether or not he grew up poor or lower middle-class is irrelevant. I’m sure some of the worst actors in history were sweet children at some point who may have grown up in poverty. I am commenting on the 39 year-old man who has been bankrolled by tech billionaires through two jobs and one ultimately failed business venture, and coddled financially as a senator who now has become one of the most extreme politicians in an already extreme party. His hypocrisy is already exposed, and I don’t think he cares. When I say he will be exposed I am referring very specifically to the puppet strings attached to him from the federalist Society and the project 2025 sociopathic authors. Dismantling the levers of government and the fundamentals of democracy, which they failed to understand, have allowed for incredible wealth generation, all to hoard, political and financial power in the hands of an empty vessel as president, whether that be Donald Trump or JD Vance. If you think otherwise, you should consider removing your head from your rectum.

Pay attention to Thiel who funds Vance, and US nationalism, is actually German, and also funding right wing parties in Europe.

We know Vance has no answers and is wrong because the rust belt crumbled to dust 30 years ago AND THEN ppl turned to drugs to cope. The drug abuse wasn't the cause but the response- the outcome of that shattering. Their subconscious brains correctly recognized they have no meaningful control over their economic destiny and to numb that pain they turned to drugs and alcohol.

This is correct. Demanding a level playing field (Constitutional principles) welds the party bases to the center base. Right now, Trump is winning this strategy. Whether this is for show or not is a separate discussion. Letting Bill Kristol and Liz Cheney speak for the Democrats should tell the Base everything they need to know. The Republican base ejected them for a reason.

@@karenwaddell9396 Hi Karen: I agree that all states should have a say. I am from Canada and don't fully understand the elements of US governance that clash with my own ideas of democracy. My country is not as democratic as I want it to be. One person one vote is my idea of democracy in action. The Electoral College system and gerrymandering and Huge Money directing politics are dangers (as I see it) to democracy. My interest in American politics is that the decisions and direction the US takes has a profound affect on Canada and countries around the world. My comment is in harmony with " Pro-Biden/Harris" views of AOC and folks like John Flannery. It reflects my own love of democracy. All the best. I am rooting for a free and democratic America. 🌎❤Carolyn PS. I also agree with rank choice voting

I grew up and still live in a rural county that is even poorer and less populated than where he's from, and I agree. In our communities there's two types of hillbillies, there's the poor hardworking and humble rednecks, and those "rednecks" whom are apart of the few affluent families who employ us. Their worldview typically (although there are exceptions) reflects a deep hatred and contempt for us, as if we're poor simply because we're bad and lazy people who didn't work as hard as them. Which ultimately is just a way to justify to themselves why they can treat us like cattle. Vance and everything he espouses reminds me of them, not of my peers. I think it would be charitable to just assume that he's victim blaming, and that he doesn't actively view us a worthless cattle, considering he's a venture capitalist worth millions.

That "idea" failed and resulted in over 100 million dead. A free market is the best the world has. It lifts more people out of poverty than any socialism ever did. It encourages entrepreneurship and business start ups, competitive pricing and growth which benefit the consumer. It opens up options to the buying public. Which in turn results in business & labor having to compete which in turn usually provides better service to the consumer. It's gives Choice. Something the left is always so big on except when it comes to the economy & our money. If workers owning their production was a successful model, we would have experienced by now and my family definitely wouldn't have fled the eastern bloc!!!
