Trump’s selection of Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his running mate was not a total shock to the system, but the system was unhappy, nonetheless. The old neocons are howling in agony, claiming he is another Hitler. The slow-witted neocons are similarly unhappy, but they are going with the “he’s not Reagan” line. These are the people who claimed George Bush II was the heir to Reagan. The dried out husk of Buckley conservatism is going with their usual perfidy.
It is not just the yesterday men of the official right who are unhappy. The more strident of the online right are vexed that Vance is married to an Indian and was once a member in good standing of the regime. They think he is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They look at this slot on the ticket as the heir to Trump and therefore the guy who will lead the cause after Trump’s term ends in 2028. They wanted someone who was more clearly on their side, even though such a person does not exist.
The problem with all of this analysis is that it operates within the conventional framework of politics. Despite his civic nationalist inclinations, Trump is the nullification of the conventional political framework. Over the last decade, there have been two main camps regarding Trump. There are those who think he will operate the levers and gears of the machine to their liking or not to their liking and those who get that he exists to destroy the machine, even as he tries to operate it.
With that in mind, the election of Vance should be seen as Trump starting to understand what is happening. People forget that he was set to announce his pick after the debate, but then put it off so the focus could be on Biden. Vance was most likely not the pick at that point. Tucker Carlson said that Trump decided on Vance around the day he announced the pick. In other words, there is a good chance that Trump’s brush with death had some impact on his thinking.
The way to view Vance ideologically is as a compromise between Trump, the civic nationalist, and his core base of support. Trump and his older voters maintain that the system of America is fine. The trouble is the people running the system. It is why they are so invested in Trump the man. Vance and the subculture in which he primarily exists understands that the system is the problem. They are not revolutionaries, but they think systemic change is necessary to avoid disaster.
Some get this to a degree. Patrick Deneen uses different language to describe Vance, but the idea is the same. This Wall Street Journal post comes at the topic from a more dissident perspective. Graedon H. Zorzi is a worth a follow if you are interested in more nuanced analysis of current events. If you look at the list of people Vance follows on social media, it is a list of people who think critically about politics. In one fashion or another, they are critics of the system.
What Vance represents, and you can put people like Christopher Rufo in the same bucket, is either a final defense of the system or a waystation on the road to what Charles Murray calls the white backlash. This subculture that produced Vance is both a compromise between white identity politics and the old civic nationalism, and a synthesis of the two. It is an identitarianism that is majority white, but tolerant of a fringe that is not white, but fully assimilated.
None of this is to say that this is deliberate. There is no evidence that any of the people in this subculture think of themselves as gatekeepers or facilitators. They are simply staking out ground that is morally tolerable yet they are realistic about what is actually happening in the flesh and blood country called America. To a great degree, they are reactionaries, responding to the fantasy world that is the conservative response to the madness falling from the clouds of the managerial elite.
This is what gets missed in the criticism of Vance from the online right. Vance was not a political guy and when he was encouraged to get into politics, he adopted the politics of the people around him. When he got a good look at what those politics meant, he reacted negatively and started down the path that led him to this point. Anyone who has been to a dissident event has heard a version of this story many times. The people Vance chooses to follow all have similar stories.
The question that remains to be answered is if this subculture that produced Vance can create a plausible political program and challenge the orthodoxy. So far, they have stalled where prior efforts have stalled. They present their analysis of the system and then when asked, “now what?”, they have no answer. Patrick Deneen’s last book is a great example. He explains the defects of what he calls liberalism but then gets frightened by the implications and quits the project.
Another angle to this is that this subculture has attracted the interest and limited support from members of the oligarchy. Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are two examples of billionaires who seem to support this project. Claremont operates like a political version of Y Combinator, sponsoring people and projects within this space. Some have proven to be defective, like Richard Hanania, but others, like the IM1776 project or Passage Press, have been more successful.
Trump tapping into this space and thus getting support from members of the oligarchy bodes well for him and the subculture that produced Vance. No reform effort can survive without elite support. This not only bodes well for the project, but it means Trump has a chance to not only win the election but get something done. Proof that the universe has a sense of humor is that this is the real Flight 93 election, a last attempt by reform minded oligarchs to save the system.

“It is an identitarianism that is majority white, but tolerant of a fringe that is not white, but fully assimilated.”
That’s how we may frame America, but JD’s family situation smells of the libertarian oligarchy attitude that people are interchangeable, that this is not a blood and soil country. Our demographics are in a dire situation right now. That is really the only issue that matters. I have trouble believing that someone with a lefty “Asian” wife is going to be sensitive to the need to get the house in order.
Exactly. Setting aside the assassination attempt, Trump is an old man, and the chances of this guy becoming El Jefe if Trump is elected are pretty significant. Something tells me that if a guy with a son named Vivek becomes the head honcho, the primary change we can expect is that the flood of immigrants becomes his San Fran girlboss wife’s 203 uncles and 3rd cousins named Pajeet instead of guys named Juan. Frankly, I would rather take the one’s named Juan. They at least have some fragments of European culture in their background from the continent’s history. The dot… Read more »
That’s exactly what happened under Zero, I never saw as many people at the grocery store with head wraps as I did after he was finished with his 8 years of destruction. Remember, born in Hawaii, but his heart was in Indonesia. SSDD.
Indians coming to America either maintain the entirety of their culture or go hyper-secular. Frankly the latter is more terrifying. Similarly, as much flak as fundamentalist Muslims get, they are far less dangerous than their woke converts. The converts feel the need to signal submission to power like you wouldn’t believe and there are no brakes on what they will do to gain social status.
One of my neighbors is a traditional Muslim, and his wife was raised Muslim but is now completely secular. I can work with the guy, but his wife terrifies me.
How does a traditional Muslim rationalize having no control over his wife like that?
In this country, what choice does he have? Divorce is his only option, or I guess he could try to move her back to a Muslim country where he could get her back under control.
Traditional Islam is about appearances. Men supposedly are running the show. However, it appears that women really run most of everything that is not politics, even if in some countries they are wearing some garbage bags in public. I note that garbage bag fashion means that older women need not compete with younger and pretty ones.
Such a wife is not an embarrassment in the US. If she has job/career, quite often that would make her a high status wife. She also does not to be provided for. Shoulder shrugs will do here.
I have several friends, good people from South Asia, whose children became rabid shitlib activists at the age of 10. That is right. At the age of 10. They celebrate their activism. I think this is driven by the wives and the cucked husbands. Now the kids are in fancy college prep schools and headed for insertion into the Hive. Well, provided there is a place to insert them. If the Hive lives in its current form, bots will be taking the place of the sinecures by these spawn are of age. This shitlibbery is attractive to the women as… Read more »
I too prefer the blood and soil Juanita to a Pajeet, but they are not in the elite academic and corporate circles, hence the talented white guys who can’t find traditional white brides marry Asians. It’s a hell of a choice, but at least the tribal Hindus are a check on the intolerant Jewish elites currently ruling America.
One thing you will rarely see an actual talented white man doing is marrying an Asian, East or South. Can you imagine a guy like Trump using an Asian as anything but a quick lay?
The sorts of white guys who pick those types of women are pretty much invariably weak cucks who need the most docile possible women in order to breed, and all it costs them is having their sons become hapa supreme gentlemen like Eliot Rodgers.
Young men in America today looking for a compatible mate will find slim pickings. The cities, the college campuses, women you meet at work are majority Woke feminists. Loneliness, being alone, is a depressing place to be. So what’s a guy to do? He finds an immigrant woman whose more traditional value system is more in alignment with his own. It’s not ideal, but better than being alone or married to a crazy tattooed American cat woman who may decide that your son is actually male.
If the system wasn’t misandrist you could maybe bully the white chicks into being a bit more tolerable (though let’s be honest, Millenial and later guys aren’t exactly perfect), but you risk getting the Amber Heard treatment, without the finances and star power to defend yourself.
Anybody who thinks Asian women are docile has obviously never met one. 105 lbs. of unhinged fury is more like it.
I have no personal experience unless you count hourly hires😎 Just the same it’s my understanding that if you ever cheat on an Asian wife you will probably come to regret it.
Sounds like that could be fun in certain circumstances…
Oh it is!
You just don’t let your Korean Hussy du Jour anywhere near the Meissen porcelain collection. They’re known for throwing stuff when angry.
Ha. Do they also hiss, spit and claw?
I think you’ve got the picture. The screeching can be a bit much.
Korean B girls find GIs that never had a girlfriend.
GI joe falls in love, B girl, take me america joe. Ten years later joe divorced , broke & you have Korea town .
“at least the tribal Hindus are a check on the intolerant Jewish elites currently ruling America.” ??? Brahmins are discount Jews. If you have money and power, it’s because God loves you (TM) as a Brahmin. The social system of Hindiusm is indisguishible from that modern Judaism. There are 3 groups at the tippy tops of US income, per Pew Research: -Jews -Psyberterians/Reform -Hindus, of largely the Brahmin caste That said, unlike Jews they cannot easily blend into European society. The more of them that appear, the less likely they are to change their names, etc. Jews can influence in… Read more »
Yes, the one major flaw in Vance is the Hindu influence, because the Hindus have demonstrated that they are even more ethnocentric than the jews… Though the two top castes are considerably smarter than the Juans of this world, I would not like to be living in India….
More ethnocentric than the Finkels, huh? Sorry, but I don’t think that is possible.
It is.I have the scars.
Pajeets don’t show the (minor) virtues of the Tribe, however I don’t find them as close to being objectively evil re: The Holodomor, porn industry, various slave trades etc.
So I’d still say Shlomo < Shi’tavious < Pajeet < “Other” < Long Wang/Sakura < Joe Blow
Looks about right to me.
The bit you’re missing is that Quantity has a Quality all of its own. There’s a lot more money-grubbing Patels and crazy smart weirder than Yuval Noah Hariri South Indian Brahmins than there are Tribe members on this third rock from the sun. Two things to remember about Indians: 1) They’re a totally matriarchal culture (like Jews used to be and still are in all their jokes) despite the stupid faux heroics in their trashy movies. The women rule them. 2) And their women are the worst amongst the screeching vanguard of the woke. Not great thought leaders but very… Read more »
For comparison, are either as ethnocentric as the blacks?
Maybe we can develop a sliding scale.
Nobody is as ethnocentric as American Blacks. Blackety Blackness is all they have to hold on to.. all they have ever been and all they ever will be.
Be all You Can Be as the United States Black Babysitting Black Rock Enforcers put it in their recruiting material.
Agreed.
It’s ironic that the very linchpin–note, I didn’t spell it with a Y–of multi-culti are the least multi-culti people on the planet. And the Left never says boo to them about it, of course.
I don’t really care about blacks. As long as they’re peeling bananas and swinging from vines in Africa, it’s none of my business.
Unfortunately, the’re not. They’re peeling sail foams and swinging from Escalade antennas rat cheer in the good ol’ US of A.
It is.
They are absolutely are. Much more open about it, too. Pajeet is a discount Finkel. From the Eureopean POV though, we can at least identify them.
The great advantage the Indian immigrants have over others RIGHT NOW is that the speak pretty darn good English. That is an irreplaceable legacy the British left them, like it did for all their colonies, the US included! Blacks from Jamaica are not very numerous in the US but they have this advantage, too. Just look at dear Kamala Harris — she’s a twofer;-) Compare these folks with the French-speaking immigrants: Haitians; French-Canadians; those from the Congo, etc., ignoring for now certain racial disparities. Yes, the offspring of Chinese immigrants are browbeaten by their families to achieve academic success, but… Read more »
It might very well be that White racial ”purity” as promoted in DR circles is dead. The best that can therefore come about is a racially blind immigration system based upon the needs of American society in the future. Hopefully resembling a meritocracy. It was once that way, except there were quotas attached to countries/nationalities of origin, but your “skills” were judged wrt need and employment. So yes, one can imagine many Indian immigrants from high castes coming in, but that is balanced by a reduction in low IQ dirt scrapers from the third world. In some respects, this might… Read more »
It’s not that it is dead, it’s that it hasn’t been born yet because the idea of a purely racial identity not being forged by being an oppressed minority is stupid. Black can work because blacks spent multiple successive generations being treated solely by race. No one gave a shit whether their slave was an Igbo or a Zulu. Whites have not been through anything comparable to have forged a similar identity, it was always just a negative identity to “black”. It may be that down the road, white becomes a real identity, but it will take generation of being… Read more »
Genetically and in every other respect, a Pollack is the helluva lot more like a Limey than he is like a Chink or a Hutu. And most of the problems whites face today stem from a refusal to hoist in this very obvious truth.
Well, that’s the glass half full observation. As good as mine. Folks here downvote ideas not to their liking/desire, but nonetheless are of valid observation/concern. The DR concept of Race Realism has yet to take hold and at the rate we are progressing, may never reach a critical mass. It seems entirely possible, perhaps probable, that immigration reform comes about in a form that does not consider race, but rather “quality” of the applicant solely. Quality of course needs to be discussed, but it won’t be race. This would solve the problem of race differences discussion—which to date is not… Read more »
I upvoted your comments because they are reasonable and within the range of possible outcomes. However, minority tribalism would need to disappear for this path to result in an acceptable compromise. Given that IQ disparities are stubborn things, I do not see this happening anytime soon. I believe our more likely best outcome is something like we see in Alabama/Mississippi/Louisiana where the black population is over 30%, but the states are deep red due to whites being very race realistic based on their close daily interactions.
Agreed. And I freely point to the unspoken problem in *my observation*—that of “regression to the mean”. In short, every race category has its outliers. Those are the ones we will encourage to apply for immigration. Good bet that the offspring of two higher IQ immigrants won’t reach the intellectual level of their off-the-scale parents, but instead decline to or reflect something between the average of the parents race and that of the (high status) parents. But in any event, it certainly is better than the millions flooding in now whose only ability is fogging a mirror. It looks like… Read more »
You are completely wrong when talking about the U.S. Canada and Australia. There has been so much mixing for so long the old conflicts have been forgotten and even if they weren’t how would you tell who is who? However, you are right when discussing Europeans. It hasn’t been nearly long enough for them to forget their past wars, and so you will never, in your lifetime, get a Frenchman to say he is the very same thing as an Englishman or a German.
Genetically, I would think the Pollock is closer to the German than is the Englishman.
“Pollock or pollack is the common name used for either of the two species of North Atlantic marine fish in the genus Pollachius. Pollachius pollachius is referred to as “pollock” in North America, Ireland and the United Kingdom,”
LOL.
I caught a nice pollock from my kayak on one of the coldest days of the year. Fought better than a striped bass.
A Pollack and the Common English Pillock belong together. Germans might balk at consigning even the East Frisians to the same histogram bin as the Poles. Or at least they would if they weren’t totally cucked in Current Year.
I’ll take a German , Englishman or Pole over a Boer any day of the week. My sister ,sadly, has some of your people as neighbors; police are being called about once a week to deal with “domestics”.
That’s kind of weird because I’m not an Afrikaner. But whatever floats your boat.
Probably genetically closer to the Russian than the German.
No question about it. All Slavs share more genetic material with one another than they do Germanic, Latin and Celtic whites.
A meritocracy immigration policy will be a racial quota system. We know that and the people in charge know that.
I don’t know about that. It seems like a lot of pajheets would be allowed in through meritocracy. I forget the name of the case, but it was a Supreme Court case that said there is nothing wrong with discernment bye national background when it comes to immigration. Everything can be fixed legislatively.
Merit could serve as a proxy for race, if we were reduced to going that route on immigration. Much would depend on the definition of merit.
Somewhat of a proxy, yes. However, TempoNick is on the correct tract. Every race has its outliers. India especially if Reich’s analysis of the population genetics is correct. Indeed, those who fear more “Pradeep’s” are absolutely correct. There are a few high caste populations within India aside from the well known Brahmin caste. These people are smart enough to immigrate under any system that does not define strict racial quotas.
If we were creative enough, we could tweak the merit tests in ways to restict immigration by high-caste subcons. Ideally, of course, only white immigration or almost white-only immigration would be allowed. That’s why I said “reduced to.”
Personally, I think India needs her Brahmins. We just need to stop with the idea that we’re going to be parasiting off the highest IQs of each race. I know I’m preaching choir on this board.
We just need to get back there to that place. We were there not all that long ago. The current social atmosphere is social anomaly.
Ironically, the nicest thing we could do for the so-called “developing world” would be to stop poaching their cognitive elite. But that’s not the true object of mass immigration now, is it?
Brain drain is a long discussed issue. I’d as soon reduce immigration to even less numbers, and certainly leave out anything resembling non-merit based resident VISA’s—and no, just because you immigrated does not mean all your family can come over to join you.
On the other hand, we already have our businesses forming divisions in other countries to take advantage of their cognitive elite. So there is no easy solution.
You can’t leave anything open to question with these people. They will loophole you to death like they do with every other law. You need to spell it out in black and white so they can’t subvert it. Merit based immigration is too squishy.
Ideally immigration would be limited to white South Africans and Rhodesians.
They will clamp right down on Chinese immigration and ramp up the Pajeets in the name of ‘National Security’.
It will not end well for a variety of reasons we all grok (there, I used it).
There should be ZERO immigration. Thats 0!
White populations are falling rapidly, so if you seek a political solution then you are required to seek allies, and in a racial conflict those allies will be other races. An acceptance and alliance with “Asians” may be our only political hope. You may find yourself saying Asian immigration is good, to get the support of those Asians.
As long as you aren’t including sub-cons, sign me up.
We need to clarify (as we have a mixed audience world wide) the term Asian. In Britain those are “sub-con’s” or Indians. In the USA we often think Chinese, Vietnamese and the like. Less from India.
AFAIC, anybody from Asia is an Asian. Period.
That’s fine, but clarity in discussion—especially when it drifts from immigration to societal norms and such. Right, we don’t want “others” if possible, but if not…
A thin reed, but Indian upper castes are an Aryan admixture, as are the mestizos.
Another small plus is that their religions preserved far more of the ancient proto-Aryan sciences than did the socio-political cant of the Habiru (they didn’t have meteors smashing the place to smithereens.)
Since Nature’s intent is relentless, that is, to spread the upgrade (us), we might become as the jews; retaining consanguinous cores of breeders to replenish the constant assimilation of an outbreeder majority.
“Aryan” stuff is just made up academic junk from the early 20th century. It’s a way to replace God for Europeans and give them a way to throw away their immediate history and heritage. Pajeet is not our ancestors. Even if he were, he’s way too different to make a compatible society.
The discussion of India is where already dubious Aryan theories fall on their face.
Not entirely made up. The Indo-Europeans seem to have originated somewhere in northern India and the Aryans were an offshot that migrated to Iran (the word comes from Aryan) and later into Europe. Now does that make us natural boon companions with Rajiv and Deepika? Certainly not. But we do share genetic material, and you can’t say that about most other non-European peoples.
Not to get into some sort of physiognomy argument, but simply look at JD Vance’s wife’s facial features in her image spread on Google. I could take pretty much any photo and with simple coloration changes in Photoshop turn her into a “White” person. Not intending to be snide here or provocative. I live in a predominately Hispanic town in the Southwest. The Hispanic community has many good looking women of Indio-Spanish heritage, but I’d be hard pressed to modify most images through coloration alone to anglicize them. They simply don’t have the features. This is pretty much what I… Read more »
South Indian Brahmins (smartest of the smart, lords of Silicon Valley) are Dravidic and not remotely Aryan. That being said, the whole Aryan bit is clutching at straws. You might want a country with zero non-White immigration. You’re not going to get it from the present ruling Elite and you also won’t get it if the PayPal Mafia and Musk (Vance being their sock puppet) get to run the joint. What you might be able to get is more say over who gets in. And in that happy circumstance, I’d be looking at more East Asians and a lot fewer… Read more »
You have it backwards. The Aryans (Iranians) invaded northern India c.1500 BC. Real Brahmins (the kind who don’t need or want to emigrate) are very white skinned, not brown at all, unless it’s a suntan.
I have it right.
South Indian Brahmins run much of Silicon Valley. They are nothing at all like North Indian (Aryanish) Brahmins.
South Indians are Dravidian. Totally different genetics and different non Indo-European language families.
The wealthiest people in India tend not to be North Indian Brahmins — Parsees and Jains to name two groups. North Indian Brahmins tend to be Civil Servants, Lawyers, that kind of thing — not money grabbers like Patels, or tech CEOs like (say) the Iyers. Caste == mini-race == Destiny.
Parsee is a Hindi corruption of Persian. The Parsees, mostly confined to Bombay, are a remnant of ancient Persians who settled in India and they still practice Zoroastrianism. Freddie Mercury, improably enough, was a Parsee.
I’m aware of that fact. Many of the wealthiest Indians traditionally were Parsis (e.g. Tata clan). There’s still a bunch of them sitting on a pile of money in Hong Kong — arrived with the British, founded the bank which became HSBC, did very well in the opium trade, etc. I don’t think it qualifies as a full-on Fire Temple, but they have some kind of religious centre here. The Parsi remnant in Iran seems to be fairly well tolerated by the Mullahs.. again one of those things which jar with the propaganda we’re fed by GAE media. We focus… Read more »

This shiznat with Ron Howard having made a movie about JD Vance, way the heck back in 2020, simply stinks to high heaven. My guess is that the Sodomite Paedophile Industrial Complex, which controls the GOP***, has had their eye on JD [JenDer-fluid] Vance since forever. In turn, that would tend to imply that Ron Howard did indeed have to bend the knee & perform the fellatio on the circumcised erections of Hollywood, in order to have a career as a movie director in the United States. Poor Ron Howard was probably being molested as early as the Andy Griffith… Read more »
Impossible to say anything with any surety right yet. I am more informed about American politics than the average Canuck – and I had no idea who this guy is or was. He stinks to high heaven: supposedly raised in poverty and squalor, with a psychotic family… usually kids from those childhoods end up in jail or doing low paying mundane jobs at best. But I am supposed to believe he bravely rose above his circumstances, and rose to prominence in the Marines and other organizations on pluck and merit alone? Pull my other finger! That’s like the Disney movies… Read more »
Too harsh. I know nothing about Vance, but if he is one of the “smart ones”, it is entirely possible he rose above his early life circumstance. I can speak of that from experience. My background in life is completely lower (no) class up until I entered university. I don’t pat myself on the back here, much has to due with Providence, and less to do with me. Nonetheless, there is nothing in my biography to suggest good things were in store for me at birth.
I’m from the same milieu. First person in my family to graduate from college, and in doing so I dealt with the reverse snobbery so common to the white working class. Now I’m obviously no JD Vance, but it is entirely possible for base-born whites to–in the felicitous phrasing or Tarl Cabot–climb the greasy pole.
Perhaps.
But it is said no man can serve two masters. JD supposedly can serve 3 or 4…?
There are far better people to choose from.
Who? General Flynn and Matt Gaetz are the only ones I can come up with. DeSanits can accomplish more staying in Florida.
Better people exist theoretically, but not as realistic VP options.
Zed sed:
“They wanted someone who was more clearly on their side, even though such a person does not exist.”
Which was basically my point yesterday that upset people.
I sympathise with Devon Stack in thinking the shooting, and Trump in general, is anti-accelerationist; Trump keeps the Goyim on the plantation (and Vance moreso) but I think Trump is still destructive to The System as a whole.
As long as he’s not devoted to white genocide, it’s a step in the right direction.
Expect the managerials to hate him as a traitor, because it’s said he’s against the war in Ukraine. Caveat, he might be on the ‘war for Taiwan’ side.
The faint hope is that with Musk backing him as well as Thiel, there will be some high-level grasp of the rapidly widening manufacturing and technology gap with China which might even cause an outbreak of sanity in foreign policy circles (after hosing out the DC Augean Stables with sulphuric acid).
Found the wumao…
I appreciate your backstory. Were there others in your family with your intelligence or were you an outlier?
Do you believe that there is a lot of undiscovered high intellegence in the “lower (no) class,” as you say?
Everything about Vance screams “groomed for the Deep State”. Granted the man’s bona fides of an impoverished childhood the fact is Grandma and Grandpa must have been very wealthy indeed to pay for both Ohio State and a Yale JD. You don’t get that kind of tuition benefit from a four year enlistment. His formation is not unlike Clinton’s when you think of it. If he had been especially talented the Marines would have slotted him in something besides being a reporter and he would have majored in something besides political science. Deep state agent probably from his active duty… Read more »
As I said over on Bayou Renaissance Man where my motto is Épater les Boomers, Vance pulled himself up by his bootstraps by not impregnating siblings or cousins in his ancestral in-bred Appalachian mountain fastness. He also did well by surviving an enlisted tour in the military and doing well in his GI Bill undergrad. Somehow he got into Harvard Law as ‘White Trash’ — if he did this under his own steam then even better… but likely he got a big leg up at this stage from Claremont-aligned talent scouts. After that it was all a matter of being… Read more »
Zaphod, I concede you know his background in detail. My research was just a quick Wiki. I admit I often speak in bald assertions, but c’mon Zaphod, weren’t you in the service? I’ll admit I haven’t checked, my during my 80s service the GI Bill equivalents were nowhere near generous enough to pay for four years even at a State university. Men enlisting cricially in-demand fields may receive lavish tuition or other kickers, but to believe that “media specialist” requires much talent rather stretches credulity. He probably received some type of intel training. Being a “reporter” is one of the… Read more »
If he kicked tail in high school and aced his SAT, chances are good he got at least a partial scholly to Ohio State. If not, GSLs. As for Yale, well most people get a free ride at the Ivies because not many people could attend otherwise, and certainly not their diverse pets.
I was a bit sloppy in my potted Vance bio. As you rightly point out, he got his JD from Yale (where Amy Chua hangs out) and not Harvard.
What’s one cruddy Ivy or the other between dissidents?
No. Was never in the military. I’ve been trying to imagine finding full-of-shit 18 year old myself in boot camp with the likes of Big Country Expat and how that might have warped my development into the fine upstanding
inmatemember of theasylumcommunity I am today.You could be right that he was doing more than just journalism.
Who paid for his college and law school? Very few full ride scholarships for White men, his military came after college and the education benefit would not have been enough for Yale Law. He’s a ticket taker.
“a lefty “Asian” wife”
She’s Indian, in my mind Indians are not Asians (having lived in Asia).
Indians are more tribal than the other tribe.
Chinese say, “If you cross a tiger and an Indian in the jungle, shoot the Indian first.”
I put “Asian” in quotes for reasons similar to what you wrote. A lot of times in the media they will paint with a broad brush describing anybody who comes from east of the Urals as an “Asian.” I think they are trying to gloss over the fact that somebody’s a Packi or an Indian by using that word to confuse them with Oriental Asians.
“put “Asian” in quotes for reasons similar” Ah….should have realised
“confuse them with Oriental Asians” excellent point
The British dubbed Indians and Pakis west Asian vs. Oriental east Asians long ago, we still don’t use it here. They are not European, but the are Caucasisoid.
The Malaysians say it, The Indonesians say it, the Thais say it, too.
Everyone from that part of the world has the Indians pegged.
If you know them, you know them.
Simple as that.
80% of dot Indians vote Democrat, just like any other immigrant group and demonic single White women, the exception being Viet boat people.
Cubanos don’t. And most people in general who experienced communism’s tender mercies don’t either. Of course, the vast majority of such people are white.
In fairness, any woman is a liability. They are political chameleons. If Vance keeps her tucked away, it’s all good.
That’s really the gist of it. Granted, I’m hardly thrilled Vance is married to a subcon and has a son named Vivek. However, if his ideology and policy preferences substantially align with the DR, that trumps his marriage. And if what Z says about Vance is true, then the evidence suggests he is fairly close to the DR, subcon wife notwithstanding. Like most on the DR, I yearn to don the Phrygian cap, spit on my hands, hoist the black flag and begin cutting throats. But until the times are propitious for such behavior, we must make do with imperfect… Read more »
One can hope—with caution wrt “hope” as I’ve noted. I only add that everything is at stake here. Trump, I believe has noted that no matter how successful he is in his (third?) election to the office, his job is going to take longer than he has time on this earth.
I myself believe he understands this and has appointed an heir to his legacy (if he makes one). It will take three terms at least to right this country and that’s if all goes well with domestic policy and world events. There are many “spiteful mutants” to contend with.
“Vance is married to a subcon and has a son named Vivek….” Overlooked this comment in first reading. I wonder if Vance uses this name in interaction with son? My mother thought it would be the greatest thing to give me an ethnic name. She named me after my grandfather in Europe. My father hated it and never address me as such, nor allow such to be used, or even written down on paperwork he handled. When he came here, he was serious about leaving the “old world” behind. Hell, I’m not even bilingual. I did not even know my… Read more »
Yes the Euro immigrants of the first half of the 20th century couldn’t shed their Old World trappings quickly enough. For the most part they really wanted to assimilate and did so. Compare and contrast with today’s immigrants and invaders.
Vance’s Pajeet wife and son named Vivek disqualify him from being a legit representative of the DR.
Walk the walk not talk the talk. Vance is a political opportunist, nothing more.
A chameleon. Everything about him is fake.
I just don’t think people understand the disaster interracial marriage is. The statement it makes, the confusion it brings, identify issues, the loyalty it questions, the philosophy of indifferentism it proposes. A regular, real marriage says very little about a man. But this is not just a fashion-of-the-times, it’s a serious thing. It was illegal for good reason. It’s a society and culture killer. Are her parents and the problems of her people’s homeland NOT a concern for him? This shows the poorest of judgments and selfishness . Not for her, this is a step up for her, cause her… Read more »
Hrrrrrmmmm.
i think I disagree. A man can absolutely be judged by the quality of his wife. Bill Clinton, Barkie Obutthole… there’s countless others.
Yes, intermarriage is selfish, especially for the male. From the POV of the nation, it would be better if he stayed single and was at least free to help his nation. Vance is safely one of the globalists, because of that mixed marriage with the upper class career wife. Trump, like or not, is just as part of that global elite. It would not surprise me that his wife is the reason why Trump is betting on unknown. If I can also make a note here, Catholics politically are all over the board. There are Catholics reactionaries like myself interested… Read more »
All three of Trump’s wive’s are of European stock. Not in the same category with Vance. Not even close.
If Trump were of the globalist elite, they wouldn’t have spent 8 years trying to destroy him and possibly kill him. Trump would be doing their bidding.
A regular “real marriage” says very little about a man?
I beg to differ. Who a man marry’s is a defining feature.
Are you familiar with the writings and biography of John Derbyshire?
Nah. Those writings are just staged, man…
If what X-22 report says is true, the Secret Service staff was essentially a bunch of temps. Not the B team, but the F team as he puts it. Crooks got kicked off of his shooting team in high school because he was a comically awful shot. (I forget if it was yesterday’s podcast or today’s.) After listening to the last two podcasts, I’m even more convinced that I’m on the right track. What happened over the weekend was fake, but it was a reenactment of what already happened before (real). That’s not what X22 report says, by the way.… Read more »
At this point my willingness to support Trump and Vance boils down to Ukraine. Both Trump and Vance seem inclined to end the conflict on the most favorable terms Ukraine can get (probably the loss of four oblasts and Crimea and neutrality guaranteed by Russian presence monitoring the remnants of the Ukraine military, but the continued existence of the Ukrainian state). If Ukraine doesn’t agree, Trump and Vance would cut off the funding. The fact that the Europeans seem terrified of Trump and Vance is another reason to support them. Biden, by contrast is likely to do something borderline insane,… Read more »
If there is any reason to vote, you just nailed it. I have decided to opt out again, but if Trump/Vance lay out explicit plans for winding down the Ukraine insanity I may revisit my decision.
Vote anyway because even without an explicit plan their being in office will sober up the crazies in the EU and NATO and the support will dwindle to nothing. All the crazy talk about mobilization and more money for defense will go away when the elites realize they are risking their lives. It hasn’t sunk in for them yet but it will.
Vance was the best pick of the likely alternatives, and maybe even the best pick overall. Certainly better than Nikki Haley or Marco Rubio. What I admire about Vance is he has a Machiavellian streak, as Michael Anton might describe it. He played the game very well, like Barack Obama, and cultivated serious people by allowing them to project their own assumptions onto him, without actually declaring his intentions, one way or another. Also like Obama, he has used various names and identities to climb the greasy pole (hopefully not literally). Which brings me to Peter Thiel. Many on the… Read more »
This. We weren’t going to get any better. He brings money, which unfortunately is very important. The intra-Elite competition is emerging and of course this is essential to victory. I’d worry about the rest of it in 3 years.
Did Trump pick Vance in spite of the Indian wife or because of her?
Seems to me she’s almost irrelevant as long as she’s not Angela Davis. They married in 2014 when Trump was barely getting his toe in the running waters. He was completely invested in her pre-escalator, but she didn’t bail through his entire head journey (assuming it’s real and it seems to be within the context of trying to start within the system).
That’s another thing. Are Indian women enamored of divorce rape, like Filipinas are?
I don’t think they are. Someone once pointed out on Heartiste that a handsome Sikh guy will take one for the team, and marry an ugly wife. Kids and relations are more important to him.
If we need to tribe up, if we need allies, if we need to emulate an intensely political culture, maybe having some Brahman influence might be the necessary kick in the ass.
(Not that I would want to share office space with Gujarati programmers, my deepest sympathies.)
Vance apparently is a serious Catholic. If she is a serious Catholic (likely), there will be no divorce. Also, I have to say there is nothing more disheartening than reading people who are “We need to save the White people” and then immediately shift into “Well, Indians are not all the bad” Come on guys. Not picking on you in particular, but these this need to have anyone come save us is about our weakness right now. There are less materialistic thoughts I can offer hope about. One I cannot is hoping that some other nation will be helpful in… Read more »
“Also like Obama, he has used various names and identities to climb the greasy pole (hopefully not literally).”
Ha ha. Hopefully not, indeed!
Which brings me to Peter Thiel.
Never, ever trust a fag.
I don’t really know where Vance stands. I must have read his “Hillbilly Elegy” about seven years back. He hails from the Rust Belt, and his socio-economic background is white lumpenprole. He managed to escape the common destiny of Rust Belt lumpenproles by earning a Yale law degree and going on to a legal career. But he seems to be blaming poor whites in the Rust Belt for what has happened to them (economic and consequently social devastation attendant upon deindustrialisation), and exhorting them to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. If you’re looking for ethnic solidarity, he is probably… Read more »
Also, the Yale-story reads as it was his Indian Princess who saved him from being an evil, racist hick like the rest of his tribe. I got Prince Harry-vibes when he described how wonderful and wise his brown savior was.
And I don’t believe he can be trusted with immigration issues either – no person in a mixed marriage can, but in particular not a guy who pussy pedestals his wife.
In every photo of him I see a bonafide soy face.
The eyeliner doesn’t help.
Vance is fake and gay. Not a Ross Perot. And we needed Ross Perot or the Pauls.
We need anyone more serious than who has shown up the for the last 20 years.
Yeah, something about his face bothers me. Too fat, too bearded. If he trimmed down and shaved it would help a lot.
Wrong. He looks very soft without the beard, even a bit in his Marine photo. He’s faking it until he makes it.
But Indians hate blacks, so that’s a plus.
I didn’t think I could find him anymore revolting than I already did but discovering this about him has really upped the ante.
John Derbyshire would like a word with you re immigration.
John Derbyshire should go back to his own country.
Which country?
He’s some kind of Brit, English I believe.
And take his Chinese wife and kids with him.
Oh puke.
Vance’s youth and wide range of experience are big positives.
His globalist handler wife is a huge negative.
Trump has a foreign wife, but at least she’s one of us. I don’t know if I can handle Barack Obama 2.0, the First Lady edition. At this point, I’m kind of hoping the Democrats go back to being their racist selves. That is really our only hope. The Whigs are worthless. They will never have enough gumption to get our house in order.
A recent European immigrant is far less “foreign” than an Indian born and raised in the US.
100% this. I feel sad reading these comments that so many Americans are “trapped” in the Matrix that is the Continental United States. Europe is NOT the UK, France, and Germany which are equally lost to (((globalism))). Bargaining between ‘which flavor of mud’ is the best tasting to sprinkle on top of the ice cream cone is depressing. Eastern Europeans are quite “white” and based AF. They know what a n-gger is, and will openly state it as such in public no less. Sadly, they are economically stagnant because the aftershocks of Communism take decades to erase and corruption is… Read more »
Our varying shades of olive would take some people aback, but some of my people were good enough to be Hitler’s allies (Croatians, Bulgarians) so I guess we’re white enough. 😂
Sure, but Melania has exactly zero globalist credentials like Yale Law in her background.
Melania is a low status wife in the modern world of globalist elites. High status wives have those mind bogglingly intensive careers, while their children are raised by people who make full time salaries.
I think it speaks to Trump’s own status in that elite by the end of his 2nd divorce. Trump also has knack for finding the almost serious but not quite Catholics in that world for help. Melania, Pence (yes, he’s still a traitor, nominal Catholic doesn’t matter), his chief of staff, and now Vance. An interesting pattern that.
There’s been a real democrat FLOTUS problem since Clinton.
I’m hoping for the best with Vance, but we’ve all known men who became completely insufferable due to their shrewish wife.
It is shockingly common, especially on the left. Three close friends of mine are absolutely beta and insufferable having melded themselves to their wives rather than visa-versa including all the far left talking points and support of all the woke f-ckery.
I have zero respect for them and their wives are not far behind. One of them basically has told the guy she doesn’t want to be touched anymore by him. I wonder why? Nothing gets a woman more hot than catering to her every irrational demand and emotional wish… 🙄
“I wonder why? “
Crabs?
I can believe that Vance’s politics have evolved in the last 8 years. Whose haven’t? He’s had his chance to see the clown world borg bare its fangs as have the rest of us and has drawn his conclusions. He married his hindu wife 10 years ago, prior to this evolution. Would his political evolution have led to a personal evolution which made a different choice? Hard to say. The point is he’s young, 39, a work in progress. Speaking of his wife, the judges she clerked for were Roberts and Kavanaugh, ostensibly “conservative” but in truth borg. I’d like… Read more »
Would his political evolution have led to a personal evolution which made a different choice?
Excellent question even though it may be wish casting. I personally know of one such case where there was buyer’s remorse over the dusky wife and hapa kids. It does indicate a serious lapse of judgment.
That I must agree with you on. Sex is one thing. Marriage and children another. I’ve just looked at pictures of the couple. I certainly wish them well—especially the children. What this signals to me is that we have a man with no race considerations/concerns at all. I simply don’t think at this (my) stage of race realization—but perhaps not at a younger age either—that I’d enter into marriage outside of a White, Northern European spouse. So what I see here is we have a person—dead to us—wrt anything involving racial awareness in future political decisions. As Ostei pointed out,… Read more »
“One could get the sense that the Vances were chosen, groomed etc. from a good while back.”
Kind of like Zero. No, EXACTLY like Zero.
He obviously is a creature of the system, yet he has broken with it in at least one important way. Ukraine. Which is grounds for guarded and cautious optimism. He is no savior, but he could be useful.
I had the strong feeling Trump was going to go with Carson, pre-assassination attempt – Carson is completely loyal and would never step out in front of Trump, even accidentally. Vivek (or even Tucker) could easily steal the thunder. Tucker’s invaluable doing what he does best, imo. As for JD, I wasn’t thrilled abt the book – to me it came off as something of a guided slumming tour. But then one of the nastiest pieces of journalism this century was penned in review of it when Kevin Williamson actually gave the game away. He was the first bubble head… Read more »
Funny thing is that Williamson is a west Texas white trash redneck who hates who he is and where he comes from. He’s a joke and should be ignored and shunned.
My Senator comes from a small town and attended a regional college with no particular reputation for academic excellence. Instead of attending the law school at the college somehow he ended up at Harvard law. After graduating he returned to his small town for two years of private practice before running for state representative and then it was off to the races. The system has talent scouts everywhere looking for young people with “potential.”
“The system has talent scouts everywhere looking for young people with “potential.” Perhaps, but Harvard *does* accept/look for “White Trash”. Their selection criteria does not exclude all Whites out of hand and has slots open for such “underserved” minorities. This developed when they started getting pressure from lowered admission standards for minorities, so criteria switched somewhat from score based, objective measures to “underserved” communities, i.e., ghetto rats and White trash being two communities. A good sob story goes a long way there and subjective evaluation seems to pass muster in admissions. Vance may have been a “token” admission to prove… Read more »
“Trump could have picked Rubio or Scott.”
You sold me right there.
A commenter at Micheal Yon (the combat journalist who exposed Mayorkas’ Darien Gap immigration pipeline) credibly speculated that the shooter scenario was an assassination attempt by the Republican side, in cahoots with the Obama-laid bureaucracy. Getting Nikki or even Desantis into Trump’s place would’ve buttressed the System.
The people celebrating Trump getting shot or saying it’s fake and he staged it, these people want him dead and all of us dead also. They may pull out all the stops and steal it again. We may be able to see the corruption from Mars but not voting at this point because the candidates aren’t perfect it’s just madness. The other side wants your son’s castrated and your daughter’s raped. All your are voting for is the people that don’t want that. It’s not a real hard decision
I’m willing to accept the possibility that you outlined: Vance was involved in the never Trump stuff because he adopted the politics of those around him. He then had some epiphanies and started moving towards Trump, and even some viewpoints on our side. Heck, everyone on here started somewhere else and ended here ideologically. The list of people he follows on X is interesting evidence to that conclusion that I’ll mull over. HOWEVER… You can’t easily gloss over the married to an Indian woman thing. It’s not just that he married an Indian woman. It was an “interfaith” Hindu-Christian marriage… Read more »
Tucker is good at what he does, but I don’t think he has the chops to run government. He’s a media personality and that’s it. Honestly, he needed another Pence, except one who is on our side.
“on our side”
Yeah, that minor caveat…
Tucker Carlson would have the swamp running around in circles. He spent most if his career in the D.C. swamp, knows how they operate, Carlson is also insanely smart.
The good thing is that it doesn’t really matter who Trump picked as VP. All candidates must do the ritual at the Western Wall… and that’s just the public part of the ritual.
The system can’t be reformed anyway.
–Everyone keeps asking who else did you want? Mike Flynn, and the two rumors were 1) that was who Trump wanted and 2) That was too far for political insiders to go as the implication would be too clear. –Vance was involved in the never Trump stuff because he adopted the politics of those around him I don’t hold much malice towards pre-2017 “conservative” never-Trumpers. It’s not like they were completely wrong. However after that point the ship had sailed and still carrying on about Orange Man Bad is, at best, intellectually vapid. –It’s not just that he married an… Read more »
If Flynn is too much for his advisors,I worry he hasn’t crossed the river yet. If he were to announce Flynn as his pick for Sec/Def however, I might be mollified.
It becomes increasingly difficult to get good people to go into politics in a country where the system encourages and allows patsies to try and blow their brains out. So the candidates we’ve got are the ones we’re left with.
It is also possible that Vance has moved substantially rightward over the last several years and that, if he had it to do all over again, wouldn’t marry the subcon.
We’re all just taking shots in the dark here because reality in the BFE seems to be little more than a semantic field of independent hunches. The only source of truth anymore is a well-calibrated BS-detector.
I effing hate not settled acronyms users – wtf is BFE?
Heh. Sorry ’bout that. It’s one of my own–Blackberry Fruitcake Empire, i.e. the GAE…er…Global American Empire, otherwise known as AINO…ahem, excuse me, there I go again…America In Name Only.
I also find it amusing how everyone is so obsessed with his wife over all the other connections, red flags and his patronising book.
Maybe it’s a Boomer thing.
His wife is the interior of his life. It will dominate his thoughts and most of his “off” time for the rest of his life. Vance by having a foreign wife is not going to be a nationalist. That’s probably why he was chosen, despite a weird history and other red flags.
The super smart lawyer wifey will keep the borders open and that’s why Vance is acceptable.
I will give credit where credit is due, I thought Trump would pull a Ronald Reagan and choose the Republican establishments pick for a running mate. Trump choose JD instead, JD is not perfect but who is? Both sides are for sure in Israel’s pocket but at least there are some positive things about this new power center forming in the GOP. Neother Musk nor the PayPal mafia are us, but they don’t hate us either. I will take that.
JDV’s wife is Hindu, and thus has no emotional attachment to Jews. They’re just another tribe for her. She may end up talking some sense into JDV.
If she’s a practicing Hindu, then Vance is no serious Catholic.
The Jews have a great deal of overlap culturally with Hinduism. For sure, as she will have the Jewish view of America as great big shopping mall, there to give her children and relatives good schools and nice place to live.
If Thiel and Vance don’t hate us, nobody does. Thiel’s career is dedicated to making the planet a prison, and Vance’s to saying we’re losers who deserve it.
> JD is not perfect but who is? Both sides are for sure in Israel’s pocket but at least there are some positive things Exactly. Some people are pissed that JDV is seemingly so pro-Israel and pro-Jewish. The fact is, no American politician has been allowed into prominence (any higher than say Thomas Massie) in recent decades who hasn’t been. You’re just not in the current day going to get someone willing to fight that fight. That battle was lost when they railroaded Nixon out office. That battle was lost when the Chicago Seven weren’t put away for life, there weren’t more Kent… Read more »
Vance bears the hallmarks of a true toady who has been snatched from a low background, groomed, and installed for oligarchical service. I have worked with and for such amphibians. Vance can never lead a genuine reform let alone revolution. Bend over for the next fifteen million invaders, the talk will be potent but the action will not deliver the medicine. I oppose Vance and will vote Biden to accelerate. To Hell with these muppets.
Staying home is something I am seriously contemplating. I don’t know if I can cross over to the dark side and vote for Biden. Maybe if JD does enough stupid things to piss me off.
Trump’s pick of Vance bought me another election cycle. I thought it was a terrific pick, and most notably, it finally exposed Nick F as a sputtering little goblin: the goy Ben Shapiro.
If the system can be saved, big IF, we’ll need Vance and Gaetz and Massie and Theil and Musk money. Not our guys of course, but like they say, Gaetz didn’t get me cancelled for being edgy online.
After the recent elections in the UK and France, however, I do think this is the actual Flight 93 election. If Trump loses, the Borg has won.
I view the UK and particularly French elections as precursors to revolutionary times. There almost certainly will be a pro-white government elected in France next go-round and a likely civil war to follow.
Marine Le Pen is not pro-white. None of the so-called far right parties in Europe are, with the possible exception of Golden Dawn in Greece.
The civil war comes when enough people realize this.
Point taken and I certainly trust your judgment but isn’t Le Pen being shunted aside for a non-cuck in the cards? I found Angelo Plume’s take on that to be convincing.
I must admit I know less about her crown prince than I do about Vance, but I very much doubt he’d be in the running for leadership if he was some kind of rogue. Le Pen ousted her own father (the founder of Front National) because he called Israel “a shitty little country in the Middle East” and that the Holocaust was “a detail in WW2-history” – both objectively true facts. (Jean-Marie Le Pen, incidentally, was in the paratroopers during the Algerian War, and served in general Aussaresses’ clandestine torture-and-mayhem squad, an Operation Phoenix-type outfit. He participated in at least… Read more »
Most Euro ‘Far Right’ parties seem to be Zionist fronts, let alone pro-white.
AfD seems less of a front, but generally cuckish.
Just so, although AfD is a front too. Their leader is a lesbian Jewess.
It appears that the political will to attempt to close the borders is mostly just a few rogue Jews getting that they will be part of the suffering when it all comes crashing down.
The Kosher sandwich is very real in global politics.
Yes, I am familiar with daddy, who was indeed an impressive figure. Bardello actually could be forced to move Right by Zemmour’s Reconquete, which is ironic, obviously. I suspect you are correct about the limitations about what that actually means.
I thought AfD was at least pro-White leaning?
No, although they do nothing to dissuade people from that misconception. AfD, as the rest of them, are civnats and Israel Firsters. Next time you hear one of these types speak about immigration, pay attention to the qualifier they put right before “immigration.” In America the qualifier is usually “illegal”, for AfD, it’s “Moslem” and for Marine, it’s “chaotic” or “uncontrolled”. For some reason, globalists plants are not allowed to outright lie on this point and tell you they’re against mass migration, they need that plausible deniability the qualifier gives them, in case they should ever garner enough power to… Read more »
Well, Muzzie immigration is a pretty big part of Europe’s problem. Eliminate the dam’ Sand Hutus and you’ve accomplished something worthwhile.
No Mohammadan ever opened our borders to Moslem mass migration. The Mohammadans are just a weapon the gate-openers wield against us, they are not the enemy himself. Once we win and regain control of Europe, re-migration will be a trivial problem that could be completed in a few decades with minimal weeping and gnashing of teeth, except from the shitlibs. Economic incentives brought them here, economic incentives can make them go home – and the tax cattle must suffer or he learns nothing. Stop all gibs, offer them $250,000 to go home and half of them would be back in… Read more »
Quite sensible solutions.
I’m probably too soft on Islam/The Middle East for most people here but I strongly feel that they’re more a symptom than an illness.
The usual suspects (of the Mercantile Venetian variety) are happy for people to cry over jihad and dhimmitude but they wont let anyone do anything constructive about it.
There’s plenty of evidence it gives cover for ‘glassing the diaperheads’ though. To the benefit of Greater Yidsrael, naturally.
Let’s You and Him fight, etc.
Let’s You and Him fight,
Just so. With the left hand, you usher in the Mohammadans and tell the locals they’re obliged to love and respect them.
With the right hand, you tell the locals they’re all terrorists who rape their daughters and beat their wives and want to establish a caliphate.
Psychologically, it’s like kicking your dog in the balls every time you give him a treat.
I dare say European girls who’ve been raped by Sand Hutus might differ with you on their not being the enemy. From a practical standpoint, the guy pulling a knife on you is always your enemy regardless of how he came to be standing in front of you.
And I suspect it will be much easier to convince the European public that the Muzz must be expelled than the Finkels, which I presume is the actual enemy to whom you allude.
Girls are raped all the time, big deal. The kosher-right rakes in millions by dealing in such inter-racial snuff porn and in the bargain they demoralize whitey. I read the statistics and draw my conclusion on that basis, I don’t need photo montages of girls who were raped and bludgeoned to death, or videos of Swedish boys being forced to kiss a Mohammadan shoe sole. I’m not terribly fond of Mohammadans for a number of reasons beyond them being in my country, but most of them are a lot more civilized than niggers and, in some respects, even Hispanics, since… Read more »
Not just the Finkels. Leftist whites are equally to blame, possibly more so. And seeking to expel the Sand Hutus does not gainsay the wisdom of ejecting a few other groups, too. It is simply one phase of the same project. Sending the Muzz packing is a big step in the right direction and is preperatory to the general white reconquete. If you condition whites that repatriating one group is kosher–so to speak–then they will be more likely to take similar action against other groups.
Le Pen was never the savior of France. As woman it was dubious to begin with. She lives with a Jew as her full time partner after her divorce from an actual Frenchman.
The man who emerged from the pages of Hillbilly Elegy was a slimy, insufferably smug little backstabber more than ready to shit on the Whites impoverished by Globalism in exchange for a seat at the Eunuch’s Table at Davos. This little boot licker clawed his way into Yale; does anyone imagine the connections he made there share any of the beliefs of the readership here? But now he has changed, struck down by the dissident light on the road to Damascus D.C.? It seems very, very unlikely to me. The Perfect Dissident Candidate may not exist but it becomes a… Read more »
“Anyone treating his street shitting wife as an unimportant detail has repudiated White interests by default.” You’re the helluva writer and I enjoy reading your posts. However, that statement is unsubstantiable hyperbole. To begin, I don’t think any of us are saying the subcon wife is unimportant. Rather, we’re saying that if indeed Vance is approaching the DR ambit, she’s not a deal-breaker. And the fact is, none of us really now where Vance’s head is at just as we don’t know where most non-Leftist political elites’ heads are at. Are they squishes, cucks and backstabbers? Or are they perhaps… Read more »
The aspect of the wife being a fundamental figure, as in the women controlling the man, seems premature in the absence of some supporting evidence. As I’ve said many times, my wife brings important insight in her right—especially wrt people and a sense for personal relationships. She complements me in such areas. But in other areas she does not and does not even attempt to “meddle”. How is it that we, on the “other side of the divide”, have such great respect for our positions and so little regard for our sex (apologies to the great number of women who… Read more »
To begin, I don’t think any of us are saying the subcon wife is unimportant. Imagine Trump had chosen T. Boone Skeezix as his VP. Little is known about Skeezix, but we do know (by his own admission) that he spent 15 years of his youth and early manhood carrying out cat burglaries and writing numerous books on successfully conning seniors out of their pension money. Once the nomination is announced, the conversation turns to questions of viability for the ticket. “Skeezix may have been our best bet; certainly better than a warmonger like Nikki Haley!” “No coalition with the… Read more »
SDB, we see the same problems and want the same solutions. That’s not an issue. The key to Vance, in this context, is his position on immigration. True, the fact that he married a subcon is not promising. However, that was 10 years ago, and as Z suggested, it at least appears as though scales have fallen from Vance’s eyes and he’s beginning to see sense. And it may well be that he now favors much more restrictive immigration policy than the open-borders bullshit that currently vexes us. We really can’t say for certain where Vance stands on the matter,… Read more »
JD knifed his family, his economic class, his racial & regional demographic in the back to the applause of the ruling class who showered him with money for his service. He was such a never Trumper that he even insinuated that Trump was literally Hitler. Then he did a sudden heel turn & adopted all the rhetoric he became rich and famous for denouncing. Oh and he’s totally down to do whatever israel wants because and I quote verbatim, “because of who Americans are.” Where have I heard that before?

OT: The conservatards are at it again rushing in, tripping over each other to worship the black, retarded whore who was speaking to them at the RNC. I swear – I need to stop following anything going on in the world. I’ll be shocked if I make it to fucking 50 without having a stroke. It is impossible to not feel the extreme fatigue generated from these morons. Between that and the idiots who think Trump will magically fix the system I feel like every day is a living nightmare. Where can one go to find normal, intelligent sane beings?… Read more »
Well you see, Tired, there is only one race… The Human race!! After all, we all bleed red!
I mean, how else are we ever gonna win elections unless we instantly abandon all our principles and contradict all our oft-claimed concerns about being replaced in our own lands whenever people who embody things we hate are nominated for positions of influence??
The Republicans are still the enemy no less than the Dems, and Trump’s survival and the Vance pick do nothing to change that. But it is possible that Trance are now closer to the DR than they are to the Republicans.
PS–Do yourself a favor and tune out the dam’ convention. I mean, why do that to yourself? You really could stroke out. I know I could.
Amber Rose is a quadroon.
One other thing I wanted to add, what is this fixation center right WASPs have with (dot) Indians? The UK Tories love them, center right Australians love them and now the Whigs here in the US.
Curiously, this is a lot like the Whig love affair with the Jews. Indians, like Jews, don’t vote Republican, either.
It’s like the same people run everything. Nah, that would be a conspiracy.
Good question and I have no answer. This is a continuous thread since at least the time of Cromwell and his alleged Glorious Revolution.
This country is “browning” so rapidly that time is running out for Whites as a group to have a say in anything. As more of the swarthies embed themselves into positions of power and influence, our options will continue to decrease. But hey, we’re just proposition “country” amirite? All men and women are created equal, we all bleed red and there’s only one race blah, blah blah…
This ten-year-old article may shed some light but is useful also for general context:
https://www.nplusonemag.com/issue-16/the-intellectual-situation/white-indians/
This is what I wrote the other day about it on the Inflection Point post (I’d add that Hindu’s lean Zionist because of Pakistan): I think there is also an undercurrent that Indians get special treatment as a wedge or bribe against the Chinese. By placating or selling out your country to India, you keep them in the Western Sphere, when it would otherwise lean at the very least unaligned, or possibly even anti-Western/Atlanticist.The thing is, one of the major deals made with India is just to let them flood your country, instead of the standard bribes in Central Asia… Read more »
Yes, you’re the one who got me thinking after you wrote that. There’s also Canada, which also seems like an Indian Outpost these days.
Let’s assume that you guys are correct and that the assassination attempt was legit. Contrary to popular opinion, this pick gives them even more incentive to whack Trump. If Trump gets whacked, JD is going to have the same problem with his wife that Romney had with his Mormonism. Too much of our base is going to stay home. Probably including me. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind who he’s married to if our immigration were in order. But given what’s happened in the past, I don’t trust this guy at all. Next thing you know, they’ll quadruple the H1B visas and… Read more »

A big part of being a dissident is understanding that humans are born different from one another, and that these differences extend to groups as well. South Asians are, on the whole, radically different from Europeans in terms of aptitude, religious beliefs, political beliefs, etc. They are also notoriously ethnocentric. I actually took the time to read Vance’s book, and was sympathetic until I got to the section where he married an Indian. If he cared as much about his heritage and his people as he claimed to in his book, he would not have done this. As a result,… Read more »
Vance said the US would look to strengthen alliances between the“Israelis and the Sunni Arab states” to “form a united front against Iran”.
Exclusive: Secret Service ramped up security after intel of Iran plot to assassinate Trump.
The oligarchs are creating a Narrative right now.
Let’s hope white americans aren’t so dumb to believe the future cyber attack, which will be blamed on iran, is worth going to war for.

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if they don’t let Trump win to force him into war. Everyone knows Red America won’t fight under the Biden regime.
Every true alt right guy has a wife of colour.
What did you think ‘colonization’ meant? Pamphlets? Strongly worded letters?
Living each and every day with a non-white leads directly to noticing???
I don’t think this was yet true when Vance wed his hindu bride, but here today in the year of our Lord 2024, if one is to pair with a white woman of child bearing age, then one must accept her tattoos and all that they signify.
I have little doubt she was a cut above most of the white women he met at Yale
This is sadly true. If you are white and not yet married and in the DR, you should probably find a white lady. But finding one without tattoos and a body count is very difficult. I can forgive based lads who end up with trad nonwhites. The alternative is inceldom. Life is full of uncomfortable choices.
Vance’s wife is not trad. She was a practicing lawyer until Vance was announced for VP. She wasn’t staying home and raising the kids.
True enough. Why, it was only yesterday that many were lamenting the fallen state of white women, and now we’re wailing about Vance marrying a non-white woman. Also, we’re admonished to go forth, be fruitful and multiply.
Forgive me if I detect a touch of cognitive dissonance here.
I think the issue is that your average White guy cannot meet an average White girl, pair bond, and start a family. JD Vance is not an average White guy. Reading JD Vance’s Wikipedia, he met his Indian wife at Yale and was persuaded to write his book by “Tiger mom” Amy Chua, wife of Jed Rubenfeld. This is not the world of your average White person. This is the world of the rootless cosmopolitan, one which JD Vance moved into with great skill. I find it tough to believe that a Marine veteran in Yale Law School couldn’t find… Read more »
True. Vance could have even courted a young AWFL and turned her at least into a normiecon.
But I’ve known many fellas that are attracted to the idea of not marrying their mother.
Bingo.
Unlike Prince Harry who had the pick of the litter. He chose mommy from a different litter.
You might be reaching. Nice white women are like the great white buffalo. And especially in Leftist redoubts like Yale.
2/3rds of white chicks are products of TikTok, Instragram and habitual Tinder usage.
Most of the Alternative artsy/quirky ones are implicitly leftist.
Even the minister’s daughter types are ball-busting girl bosses with some $100k paper-pushing government job or something ridiculous like speech pathologist or glorified kindergarten teacher.
None of them are sweet. They don’t have anything pleasant or attractive about them beside the animal.
The closest thing you’ll get is amusingly naive.
I once met a literal minister’s daughter who was very sweet, a retired ballet prodigy and then accountant, but she was Chinese.
sorry, fellas.
Every now and then I notice an attractive young White girl in my neighborhood. They’re rare as it has now converted mostly into a South Asian tech worker slum. Still, when I see such a girl I immediately start thinking “OK, where are the tats?”. I almost never fail to spot them. I found my wife by an amazing stroke of luck. I have no idea what a young man looking for a “nice White girl” would do.
If all she’s got is one little tatt on her wrist, count yourself very fortunate. You’ve just found the haystack needle.
Of course, but I also note the old saw about great minds being able to hold two or more contradictory concepts in their minds simultaneously.
Think about it, with Vance’s background he had no chance to hook up with a white at Yale. He was a literal hillbilly with not much in the way of prospects on the surface. Do you think some social register type or a relentless social climber there would have given him a second look? Look, I hate the Pajeet wife thing but that may be understandable.
Right. And on top of that he doesn’t exactly have Cary Grant looks. More like Dom DeLuise.
Excellent point.
Nailed it. People this far ahead of any curve always have something wrong with them. In my experience, everyone here checks one and usually more then one of the following: autism interracial marriage traumatized veteran molested or abused broken home absent/unknown mother or father addiction suffered nonwhite violence jewed out of something <10% non-white in their 23andMe prison kin to a suicide or checks one or more of the above orphan This is why the resentful and reflexive purity-spiralling provoked by the merest suggestion of daylight (like JD Vance) is so destructive and so irrestible. Our enemies know this and… Read more »
In the main, you may well be right about our backgrounds. If so, I’m the exception to your rules, though.
My parole officer disagrees with you. Seriously though, this is a good point. America has been a cesspool for several generations now. It started going really bad around when I was born (late 60s) You would not expect to find many people unscathed by the culture war.
I agree totally with this take even though I think the system is beyond reform and doubt it would be desirable to preserve it if that even were possible. You are especially right here: Vance was not a political guy and when he was encouraged to get into politics, he adopted the politics of the people around him. When he got a good look at what those politics meant, he reacted negatively and started down the path that led him to this point. Anyone who has been to a dissident event has heard a version of this story many times.… Read more »
Is Federalism the reform that might work? It’s the governing template of big diverse India, China, and Russia.
I don’t think federalism as contemplated in the Constitution is even possible now. We have a de facto separation happening within states at an accelerating rate, and that likely will lead to future white enclaves. The Regime is working overtime to prevent and offset it, but time is not on its side, which is why such effort is being put into an otherwise meaningless pageant this fall. A racial form of federalism would work, but that would not be allowed under present circumstances.
Yes, cracks have formed. We see evidence of breakage in 2024 that were nowhere to be seen in 2014. Dare I say there has been progress?
Clouds getting sideways with one another certainly is progress. Musk seems to have been radicalized when his child jumped on the tranny train. Note how he pounced yesterday when Newsome signed into law a prohibition against informing parents about their kids’ whispered perversions. Thiel was outed by Gawker and proceeded to destroy it in a spectacular fashion. The Left’s impulsiveness is its Achilles Heel and that is playing out publicly now.
Vance, Trump, and the like are a perfect example of the army you have, not the army you want. Use what you have, where you’re at.
At least we get some tiny bit of clarity of what the future through 2028 holds in store for us. It’s no use bemoaning the fact that J.D. Vance has an Indian wife. That train left the station long ago. America as many of us knew it is over. It was over 60 years ago when I was but a child first becoming aware of the dismal miasma of American politics. Our destiny — the destiny of our progeny — doesn’t even lie on this continent. It lies in other lands thousands of miles to the east amongst peoples who… Read more »
I’m in the process of permanent reversion to my ancestral homeland. It will take many years because my entire life is here in the US.

Yes, when you go, warn them what they can expect from ‘invade the world, invite the world.’ Best wishes to you brother.
“The system” is anti-whiteness. Vivek on the Romans (and Iowa voters) and Vance in his book (and life) have signaled their allegiance to it. Does it need saving? Seems to be doing fine, with or without them. They’re just into it. Trump’s surrender to that faction of the regime is a sad fate, but it’s probably the least horrible end he’s allowed. Does he know? Did he just find out? Is he so boomer-brained he thinks he’s helping out some young go-getters? I suspect that’s Elon’s error. Anyway, America has a hell of a streak of bad days going, but… Read more »
President Vance will be a successful reformer, just like Gorbachev was in the USSR.
Agreed. That’s where this is going.
Exactly so: the system at this point CANNOT be reformed. However, the attempt must be made by those with investment in the perpetuation of the system and BE SEEN to be made by the ruled class, before the ruled class cross that line into walking away (inside their heads) from corpse-America. Moreover, historically these kinds of breaks from old orders occur more strongly when things get better after they have been been bad, and then they get worse again, not through random happenstance but from old-order elite misconduct after they regroup and counterattack. Pres. Trump can bring about an economic… Read more »
Excellent comment, Horace.
True. We have to suffer our Gorbachev and Yeltsin before we can have our Putin.
Biden = Chernenko
This post about sums up what I think about Vance and what will happen when he takes over from Trump. The system will still fall but if we think of the system as a 200′ tall golem, it very much matters which way the corpse falls. I think Trump/Vance give it a chance to fall on our enemies and not us. That’s why I endorse the T/V ticket.
Then book me first-class passage on the Vance Train, moi droog.
Hun-
I think you’ve nailed it.
If Trump passed away I can see Vance totally renouncing MAGA and bending over backwards to import as many Subcons as possible, saying stuff like, “They speak better English than most white Americans!”
Vance, King Cobra and Musk represent a new elite emerging. Sure, they’re part of the system, but you can see how they’re bristling at being just the help. They want a seat at the table, but the tribe won’t allow outsiders into board room. Will be interesting to see where this goes. As to whites, I’d suspect that Vance and Musk have a good understanding of the situation and some sympathy, but it’s not their top priority. King Cobra likely understands why the West is better than India (white people and culture) and prefers the West, so not exactly sympathy… Read more »
In the end, all our choices are selected by a system I regard as illegitimate, from Trump to Harris. Why should I trust any of the selections?
Well, Vizzini, there’s that little assassination attempt, thing. Somebody powerful wants Trump out of the way in the worst way possible. And since virtually the only powerful people in the Western world are Leftists…
PS–Prior to Butler, PA, I was standing in your boots, too. Now I’ve got one foot in a Larry Mahan and the other in a Rockport loafer.
CNN told me he just fell down and got hustled off the stage because he was scared of “popping sounds.”
I find it hard to believe that Trump picked a guy who took Bill Kristol’s side in 2016, who voted for Evan McMuffin, and who wrote a fawning op-ed for Barack Obama when he left office. If there is anything that shows crystal clear how Trump is not the same guy he was back then, or even in 2020, it is this. Trump is a hobbled candidate who decided he needs to play ball to stay afloat. This entire RNC has actually been a depressing window into all of this. They write off Trump’s “mean tweets” – the things that… Read more »
The thing to remember about Vance is that he’s a hillbilly who pulled himself out of Bumblefuck Kentucky to go to Yale and become a lawyerdawg and a success. Problem is, that’s exactly the sort of person who absolutely hates his own kind, as his ego will have been utterly defined by the idea that he overcame his dirt identity and achieved apotheosis as a cloud person. He’s the perfect example of the bioleninist principle that the regime prefers to use uplifted underclass members since their loyalty is ensured by their fear of getting kicked back down to the gutter… Read more »
Kind of like Bill Clinton’s background now that I think about it.
Btw, that Murray discussion Lowry gets it wrong when he says, “You are saying there is a threat from the Left and a threat from the Right.” No. Here is what it is for Vance, Lowry and any others who may ever get here. There is a threat from The Left which is now a coalition of anti-White. That threat is an existential threat which wants to eradicate White people and our civilization. Look up Ignatiev, Donald Moss, Scott Potok, Tim Wise etcetera to see what they say. That is they explicitly threaten us with annihilation. Then you have guys… Read more »
Trump’s critics often failed to understand that if they think that the Don is bad, what follows is worse. J. D. Vance shows what follows Trump.
Vance looks like a Grifter, pure and simple. No real life outside of VC and politics, at least Trump who inherited wealth built stuff greater than his father. Vance is guaranteed to take the Indian side of things over White people, and non-Whites generally over Whites. That is baked into the cake. He has non-White kids so he hates you and wants you dead for being White. Got it. I have very limited wants from the Republican Party: A. No global nuclear war with China or Russia and certainly not both. B. No draft (of only White guys of course)… Read more »
Regarding the conquest of land it seems we are witnessing the 21st century technological stalemate in Ukraine analogous to the trench warfare of the early 20th. Not just drones and missiles, but the theater level AI integrated surveillance making all targets visible and known, and all major offensives virtually impossible. Attrition. So I discount the probability of any prospective Russia/China conquests in this sense. Even if they lack the IT capability of the west (I am sure they are gaining though) the west lacks the industrial capability to advance. So militarily I expect to see stalemate all around so long… Read more »
“Mr. President, 30, 40 million tops.”
Every time the power goes out, I think “well, this is it, my life is over!”
“He has non-White kids so he hates you and wants you dead for being White.”
I don’t think he wants you dead, but he probably doesn’t mind the white kids learning lgbt/celebrate sodomy ‘tolerance’ in school while his kids will not be traumatized like that. He may be willing to say POC kids and parents have a different culture so should be exempt while white kids don’t get that privilege. That’s very possible.
There is only one issue that matters in the upcoming election, and that is the energy issue, specifically its falsification as an environmental concern. The “Green New Deal” and it associated patterns of thought represent an existential threat to civilization in a way that nothing else in our day and age even compares to. No energy, no civilization. Everything else is academic. JD Vance is a strong supporter of the oil and gas industry and he considers global climate change to be a fantasy (which it is). That makes him worth supporting, even if it means we get stuck with… Read more »
Immigration is the only issue that matters. And nuking the fbi that matters too. And not starting foreign wars; although, ZOG losing another war would be helpful.
Agree ML: Immigration is the only issue that matters because it’s forever.
New Green Deal? When people are freezing their asses off in the dark, they’ll start pumping oil and splitting atoms right quick.
“Right quick” is part of the problem. Getting resource like oil and nuclear in place takes time. In particular if you have destroyed or removed the previous systems to accommodate green crap.
Not saying the other issues are not important. Perhaps need to address them all.
As duly noted in Three Days of the Condor movie..
“There is only one issue that matters in the upcoming election, and that is the energy issue, specifically its falsification as an environmental concern.” One of many, not the only. Here’s an intellectual exercise, assume in the *first year* a complete reversal of anti-fossil fuel bigotry and a return to such use and complete “energy independence” as they say. How would this cure what ails this country? Would race issues subside? Would Boeing become smarter and build better planes? Would our military readiness/effectiveness increase? Would our aging and failing infrastructure be restored? Would this even balance the budget? Man-made global… Read more »
People will not willingly and peacefully return to a Thomas Jefferson agrarian lifestyle preindustrial level of civilization, as some hippie dreamer theater majors imagine. The “Green New Deal,” if allowed to gain traction, when it eventually fails will ratchet the temperature of competitive geopolitics to feverish levels and that will almost certainly lead us to nuclear annihilation. The temperature is already rising dangerously (metaphorically speaking of course). That is unquestionably an existential threat to civilization.
If Vance is the independent self-made man advertised, why did Hollywood bigshots like Ron Howard and Glenn Close work on a movie sympathetic to him?
I didn’t notice anyone in this comment section suggesting he is self made. I think the big question is, how much/to what degree has he broken with globohomo since its clown car careened off the tracks? If his public statements are to be believed, at least some. But then he could be a liar. That’s always the chance you take.
Yes, this time they might really fight for you! Yet, we have to wait and find out! Yes, wait to learn whether the globalist lackey from Yale taking money from the highest technocrats is REALLY an outsider or not rather than a fraud.
Seems like we always assume they’ve learned and have to wait. Trust the plan, comrade.
What would you have us do?
I promise this time I won’t pull the football away at the last minute..
He seems such an op. The thing is if Trump goes down and he takes over he has all the Trump supporters and their never-say-die spirit to contend with. It wont be some cakewalk for him. I would think he knows that.
What does getting something done mean in the context of a campaign that welcomes an Amber Rose to speak at his event. Zman used to counter-signal participating in the process. What the hell changed?
The Monday RNC speaking slate is one of the most depressing and blackpilling political events I have ever seen, especially in context of what happened 2 days prior. I don’t know how anyone on this side can realistically get on board with this party, or get on board with the man who signed off on all of this. Even if he signed off on it before a bullet was a centimeter away from opening his skull, he signed off on it. Yesterday’s was a little better, but the primary message I got from all of it is that the GOP… Read more »
<i>…especially in context of what happened 2 days prior. </i>
The organizers probably planned on Trump being terminally indisposed for the convention and that it’d be all about anointing Nikki Haley – hence the heathen magic chant and the appalling waffle about some Hindoo demon creating America.
The best thing that can be said about JD Vance is that he is the virtual opposite of that pussy fart known as Mike Pence. Trump is not going to tolerate any backstabbing going forward and Vance is a fighter, so you want someone like him on your side when the time comes to throw down. If Trump wins in November, I hope Vance will swing a baseball bat in the Senate during the interim before inauguration.
The chance that Vance does anything of consequence as VP let alone swing a skull crushing bat is between Slim and None, and Slim is on vacation. My concern is “president” Vance, which must not occur in the muppetry. No pahjeetas allowed in this country. Vance and his wife can take their savage street craps in India, not here.
I guess what you are saying, and I don’t mean to engage in sophistry, but it is basically impossible to do anything of consequence as VP, unless the President lets you do it, which almost never happens (Dick Cheney and… that’s about it). I tend to think that Trump may give Vance more rope especially considering the elite and power players behind him, but it’s impossible to tell until it happens.
I do think Vance is by far the frontrunner for 2028 though, no matter what happens in this election.
Casting a tiebreaker vote is nothing to turn up one’s nose at.
Fascinating that far more men in the Dissident right are upset he married an Indian than he is lavishly devoted to our greatest ally and wants conflict with China over Taiwan. Given the sorry state of white American women, there is a lot of butt hurt in store for the Dissident right because more high status men are choosing Asians. JD Vance is probably as good as we can expect. Given that America is a conquered nation, our rulers are not going to accept an anti Israel candidate for the ticket. Vance seems to be capable of getting a clearer… Read more »

A lot of people said the establishment could have co-opted Trump if they’d made a small effort. Looks like they’ve learned. Trump was critical of Dimon of JPM. Dimkn responded by praising Trump. Trump now talking about Dimon as Sec Treasury ….
He practically begged to be co-opted with his incessant approval seeking behavior, backstabbing of his base & reneging on his campaign promises. Once he orchestrated that ukraine funding deal I figured that was done deal, he wanted that second term to satisfy his ego no matter the cost.
I worked for Dimon for a number of years. In my opinion, he would make a damn fine treasury secretary.
Every Halloween, Dimon used to open his home in the Gold Coast of Chicago to neighborhood trick-or-treaters. Booze, small snacks, full-sized candy bars. It was wild.
He kept the house and kept up the tradition for years after he moved to NYC.
It doesn’t make him “one of us”, but it does provide evidence that he has a soul.
And having a soul is a dam’ rare thing these days, ya’ know.
I have listened to far too much of this convention and I have not heard the word “conservative” once.
That’s a good thing.
Just heard this, and I agree:
JD Vance is a shoutout to the neglected demographic that got Trump elected, the Rustbelt middle class white voter.
You could look at it this way: he was undecided until the day of the shooting…and then chose the people who stood by him in that crowd.
I mean, how many times have we seen a candidate picked because he represented the white deplorables? Not the standard and cynically obvious “he’ll win the black percentage!” play by the Rove types.
I noticed that within that “strident right,” some of the people at Counter-Currents have become especially unhinged. And these are people who seemed, well, relatively sane compared with the out-and-proud Nazis. The former are talking as if they expected Trump to pick a reincarnation of Heinrich Himmler as running mate. Since Trump didn’t do that, he must be condemned as the greatest Cuck in history. Not that they were very appreciative of Trump anyway, but… From my observations, which seem to match pretty well ZMan’s comments, people like Vance and Musk have acquired a growing appreciation for what the threats… Read more »
OT:
Who wants to bet our Congresscritters made millions shorting today’s rug pull on the tech sector?
I read Vance’s bio in Wikipedia this morning and was unimpressed: In the Marines, but not a fighter. Did well college – very well. Good for him. Wrote a book that became a cultural touch-stone. That’s nice. After that he seemed to have drifted around the Swamp. Meh. I am not saying that he doesn’t have sound opinions, but it seems a pretty thin resume. I mean it’s not the amphibious invasion of Europe. But I guess it’s more than getting some asbestos removed from a Chicago housing project…
Vance is one of the few intelligent members of the Senate. I’ll give you that. However when he talks about the war in Ukraine he seems to not be philosophically against the war so much as he understands the strategic situation in the West. His point seems to be that the war is unwinnable so we should cut our losses. Now that is progress but I wish he was against the war because we started it and because it is morally wrong. Regards Israel and their stated intent to expand, Vance is close to full on neocon as is his… Read more »
Great post today. This is the most solid way of thinking I have seen presented to me in regards to Vance. I hope Vance is stumbling his way to recognizing that he can wear the crown of the man who began the project of saving Occidental Man and the entirety of his civilization across three continents. He could go down in history with his name above Martel, Alfred, Octavian if he seizes the moment. I bet he doesn’t realize it yet. If he comes to, then things could get very interesting. It does seem that the libertarian oligarchs, (who ironically… Read more »
Will his alien Hindu wife and half breed children also go down in history above Queen Victoria and Isaac Newton respectively?
In that neocon piece you linked to, Bill Kristol wrote, “We’re now way beyond reassuring establishment Republicans, whether business types or social conservatives or foreign hawks.” “foreign hawks,” not “foreign POLICY hawks.” What a Freudian slip!
Was in the Tulsi camp (since she single handedly destroyed Chlamydia Harris’ candidacy) but as far as picking up the MAGA baton in2028 he’s probably the best one + @ 39 we can get away from the octogenarian lean.
You know, theoretically we become adults at age 18. I don’t know about you, but when I was 40 I still had some stupid ideas. You really need another 20 years to learn through life experience and to get cynical enough to have your head screwed on straight. We’re not talking about running a company here, where short-term decision-making rules the day. We’re talking about making decisions that are going to have generational impact. Seasoning that comes through age and experience I think is a plus in government.
His age also surprised me – that does seem young to be at that level of power since 40 is about the time you START getting wisdom. And he is eligible to run only because his birthday is in August and the election is in November. The Indian wife thing bothers me, but not enough to stay home on the VP ticket. At the top of the ticket I would have to think a long time. Similarly I like Vivek a lot and would have beers with the guy, but would never vote for him. He’d be fine at a… Read more »
I suspect the opposite
Boom! Great comment.
So he was a journalist in the Marines according to one of the links above? Groan. Who else was a journalist in the military? Al Gore.
Vance converted to Catholicism in 2019, he was already married, and liberal Catholics don’t like him and are very unhappy with him being picked so there’s that.
How much more liberal could the guy get? Praying before a devotional site if a false religion, marrying a brown lady? This is how far the white race has fallen to at this guy is a problem to the revolution
