    While Vance is arguably just as evil and more conniving than Trump, he doesn’t have the following, recognition, or command of respect that Trump has with his base.

    There will likely be some level of sycophancy among the most ardent loyalists, but Dear Leader’s boots are gonna be hard for him to fill.

    Thiel’s gonna have to fork over a lot more cash to keep reps in line.
