Comments on: Vance reveals himself, and it’s not pretty https://thenewneo.com/2026/07/16/vance-reveals-himself-and-its-not-pretty/ A blog about political change, among other things Thu, 16 Jul 2026 21:01:41 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.1 By: Kate https://thenewneo.com/2026/07/16/vance-reveals-himself-and-its-not-pretty/#comment-2857979 Thu, 16 Jul 2026 21:01:41 +0000 https://thenewneo.com/?p=150649#comment-2857979 Assuming he was assigned to do the negotiating, that was okay. If he actually believed, based on what we saw happening, that the negotiators were either in charge in Iran and that they were credible, then that’s another problem.

Side note: Karmi is back? Taking advantage of the new log-in regime, I guess.

Yeah, Vance stopped making sense to me a while ago.

I do wonder, like Road Warrior, if this is blame-casting for the failure of the MOU negotiations. Vance was the face of those negotiations. A serious black eye for him.

But then Vance has been overly friendly with the Tucker world before this.

I am now in full support of Marco Rubio in 2028–he has the gravitas and the wisdom that Vance lacks.

But then it turned out – shockingly – that the Iranians had, in fact, not changed a bit and had played Vance like a fiddle. Not good, and embarrassing for Trump. So what should an ambitious VP do in this predicament? Blame the Jews, of course!

Had thought 3rd party for Trump tho if he hadn’t been GOP nom.

Had stated my views here on J. D. “Bootlicker” Vance many times, and would vote for AOC before him – GOP has MANY MANY GREAT CANDIDATES and Vance is not one of them.

Geez…he’s even worse than I thought he was!?!

At least this one, funded by Israel, is out in the open.

It is discouraging to see Vance taking TIME Magazine seriously.
