"The narrator of #HillbillyElegy doesn’t sound like someone who’s intending to run for office – otherwise, presumably, #Vance would have cut all those sentences about the laziness of poor white people and added some about being called to public service. [..] The billionaire investor #PeterThiel [..] doesn’t appear in the book, though he’s listed in the acknowledgments."

"#Vance’s willingness to radically revise and overwrite the lessons of his life story is by now a well-documented reflex; what’s more pivotal to his odyssey through public life is the voyeuristic liberal fascination with the tale of heroic uplift he spun in his reputation-making memoir."

"So eager were critics and pundits to find an apologist for the White working class who was not blatantly racist that they overlooked #Vance’s fatuousness, his willingness to play up his hokeyness for the benefit of his liberal audience and the ultimate banality of his message."
