    Eh… Vance isn’t the childish wanna be strong man that Trump is. He’s an ambitious ideologue who has the backing of powerful wealthy men and will 1000% take advantage of the ground work towards authoritarianism that Trump laid. I wouldn’t be shocked if he fails to inspire MAGA at large to fall in behind him. He’d probably fave a lot of opposition and other Trump wannabes in a future election, if we have any more of those. But he will definitely try to hold onto all that MAGA influence and he will likely succeed in at least getting Trump’s cabinet and the Republican congress and SCOTUS to prop up his bullshit just like they did Trump. They’ll be relieved to have a more predictable autocrat in charge. If he continues to undermine elections and the rule of law like Trump, well… I’m sure he doesn’t hate the idea of being a young dictator for life.
