JD Vance is already trying to slither away from Trump. After the GOP’s midterm wipeout, he’s blaming the Iran war and pretending he had nothing to do with it.
But let’s not forget who made JD: Peter “The Antichrist Guy” Thiel, the Silicon Valley billionaire behind the tech right’s alliance with MAGA.
As Vance eyes 2028, he may think he can outrun Trump’s baggage. He can’t outrun the shadow of his Thiel-backed rise.
