I sure hope you’re right! The always-votes-right crowd will just vote for whoever they’re told to, including Vance, so I definitely hope that any right-leaners who have broken away and are sick of Trump now don’t fall for it all over again with Vance.

Even without him commanding a cult of personality, the right still has a fire hose of propaganda blasting to hell and back… And I don’t foresee that changing. I think the propaganda is a way bigger factor here and I’m still not sure if enough of the populace is paying enough attention to sort fact from fiction.
