I don’t trust Vance either because I have no details about how he made his 180° turn in his opinion and newfound support for President Trump. He said some terrible things about Candidate Trump back in 2016, which we can all read again now on Trump Tower. There are only three possibilities:

(1) He either didn’t know enough to have an informed opinion, so he lacked good judgement in saying anything;
(2) He knew some things but didn’t believe or understand their context, so he lacked discernment in forming his opinion;
(3) He sees something in it for him now to reverse course, making him opportunistic.

All three possibilities make him somewhat untrustworthy in my mind. Maybe he’ll surprise us and he won’t be the Trojan Horse who easily walks into the 2028 Presidency, only to reveal he was DS all along. Those people are well known for playing the long game.

I don’t know his story fully either, but I wonder how much of it is that he’s seen first-hand just how corrupt the media is and so he’s learned not to trust what they say.

And I wonder how many fellow Americans are in the same situation. I hope a lot. We are WAY overdue for people to realize that the “mainstream media” is treasonous.

I don't necessarily agree. Before Trump moved into the White House, the media was doing its trash talk of him. With no first handed experience with Trump as a world leader, it was easier to see him as a TV showman.

The classic example was Glenn Beck, although there were others. Beck nearly lost everything when his 'faithful' audience turned on him. He later saw how wrong he had been and is now a staunch Trump fan.

You and I didn't fall for all that trash talk about Trump; however, I understand how some did. What I can't understand is how, after all this water under the bridge - water that became sewage - many of those same people still prefer the sewage over the evidence of their eyes, and their pocketbooks. 🤷 ...and I am not referring to the Deep State whores like the Cheney's.
