So much for any thought of a kinder, gentler GOP.

Yeah, I'm more of a "speak softly and carry a big stick" kind of gal.

Money saving move. They can use the 2020 yard signs, cross off the 'PE' and insert' VA'.

LOL. SSS would have everyone in the party arrested and put in jail, and he’s worried about us being kinder and gentler?

We know that, trollboy. Why do you post this? What are you trying to prove and to whom? Your brain must be pretty scrambled.

Thanks for posting this. It shows that Trump was not the terrible candidate/leader some thought him to be. He exceeded expectations and surprised a lot of people during his presidency. You and others of your ilk, even having seen the proof of what a Trump presidency is like, continue to spout the old fears, even though he proved them wrong.

You lefties need to listen to Amber Rose's speech. You might learn something.

Trollboy:
Are you open to thinking about the many, many people who voted for Trump in 2016 and/or 2020 and now admit they were wrong? You don't have to look very far. Let's start with Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
Lots more doing the opposite.

Vance would be the first veep with a beard since Charles Fairbanks, Teddy Roosevelt’s VP. Hoover’s VP Charles Curtis (also the only Native American vice president or president) had a handsome mustache.

Hmm, his birth name is James Donald Bowman, not James David Vance. Wonder why he felt a need to change it?

According to Wikipedia, he was raised primarily by his maternal grandparents who were named Vance. I would imagine it was to honor them. No explanation, though of why Donald became David.

He should change it back, the way he’s flip-flopped politically to align with his leader.

He's flipped and flopped?

J.D. Vance once compared Trump to Hitler. Now they are running mates

I take back my reply. The two agree on virtually every issue. Vance is a bit more conservative, which he should downplay during the general election. And change his middle name back to Donald.

I'd imagine similar reasons to those of Bill Clinton, Gerald Ford, Dwight Eisenhower, Woodrow Wilson, Cal Coolidge, Grover Cleveland and US Grant

Gee, when did he change it? I imagine it was done a long time ago, so I guess he is clairvoyant and knew way back then that there might be some negativity among many foolish voters to the name Donald, and he knew he'd get into politics, as well.
