Lets hope. Just a few short years ago he was a never trumper. Few years before that he was basically a lib.
I think hes an extremely smart and skilled politician who is maybe the best communicator alive. His communication and relatability were a large part of trump getting elected. It gave the people in the middle comfort knowing there was at least a few major voices in the admin that sounded reasonable. (For the record, im only talking about Trump's inability to communicate without being brash).
Lets hope vance continues to see the value in pursuing an America first agenda, because he will be very formidable by next cycle.
