On the other hand his floppability (is this even a word?) means he'll flop in whatever place Trump wants him to be. So his positions now (or in the past) don't really matter.

Yeah - some pretty major flip flops from this guy over the last few years. Still light years better than any democrat.

One of the problems of electing young people is that their worldviews are not fully formed.

I know he is from Ohio and has local constituencies to appease, but not a fan of his big Union boosterism that helped decimate the auto industry in the Midwest.

I don't think that's a negative. We need a younger prez to follow Trump and changing your positions over many years is part of youth and actually ad advantage. There are more young people converting to Trump than elderly

This.

Also, and I say this seeing my grandmother and also standing outside myself in the grocery store or restuarant and when I think about things...

Older people sometimes reflexively think back or sometimes get "locked" into facts that were true (or already a decade out of date) of when they in their adult peak of 30-60.

As an example, household characteristics and first age of homeownership. It's no longer 2 bio married parents with both bio kids who brought a their first house at 28-32.

I remember seeing Bush the Elder on TV and he was shocked at scanner Technology at the local Maine supermarket in like 1992 while campaigning. Something that was already widespread for a decade. I barely remember non hood franchise supermarkets (or department stores) punching in the prices from the tag, only mom & pops. The first one was installed in the mid 70s in Troy, Ohio which was hardly ground zero for new tech.

We've had a mild gerontocracy for so long, that having most of our leadership and many regular members in house or senate NOT over 65 seems weird. I would like to look at the House, Senate, Presidency, Cabinet and see mostly 45-65 year olds.

We really had some old Byrds practically die in office.

Being passed around for a while by the vested interests is a rite of passage. Being stuck at a particular port of call is hopefully not Vance's gig. Trump is unusual for not having that background.

Of course, we don't know his explicit blackmail-ability if any, or his genuine love for his country. Guess we'll find out.

What about India? They are engaged in the same shit.

The Trump-Vance Divide

They agree on trade, but the ticket’s No. 2 marks a major shift on economic policy.

On the surface, this GOP convention is the most ebullient and unified in decades. Beneath it, many elected officials are deeply uneasy.
The source of that agitation is Donald Trump’s running mate. At a glance, Mr. Trump’s choice of Sen. J.D. Vance makes sense, as he appears to be a prototype of Mr. Trump. Protectionist. Passionate. America First.

But he isn’t Mr. Trump—not at all—in ways that are hugely consequential for the conservative movement and its future. In choosing Mr. Vance now, Mr. Trump sets him up for 2028, which means a monumental internal fight is coming. We’ll soon find out how much control Mr. Trump really has—and intends to keep—over his party.
To listen to the convention speeches and the on-the-record GOP chatter, Mr. Vance is a perfect running mate for a candidate laser-focused on winning this election with working-class votes. He’s right there with Mr. Trump on tariffs and the border. He talks passionately on inflation. He connects to the workingman, whom he delights by skewering the media and the Biden administration.
That’s where the similarities end. Mr. Vance’s bestselling 2016 memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy,” was mostly a social and cultural critique. His later political opinions initially sounded distinctly Democratic. He reveled for a time as a Never Trumper, with a 2016 essay in the Atlantic, “Opioid of the Masses,” in which he explained, “Donald Trump feels good, but he can’t fix America’s growing social and cultural crisis.” He now says he was wrong about Mr. Trump, but his record since joining the Senate last year suggests he still rejects much of Mr. Trump’s economic agenda.
Mr. Vance believes government is needed to right the problems in his hometown. He’s OK with raising the minimum wage to $20. (Even Bernie Sanders is asking for only $17.) He bashes banks and thinks Federal Trade Commission head Lina Khan is “doing a pretty good job.” He wants government to direct industrial policy, with tax credits for favored industries. He’s “not philosophically against raising taxes on anybody.” Maybe because he wants more welfare for low-income households.
He and his “national conservative” allies may call this populism, but Mr. Trump’s successful Republican formula couldn’t be more different. The former president has certainly shifted the party, but as Ohio Rep. Jim Jordanput it recently, he has made the GOP into “a populist party rooted in conservative principle.” A businessman at his core, knowledgeable about markets, an invoker of Reagan, Mr. Trump’s first-term success was anchored in the core beliefs of limited government, more freedom, trust in providing opportunity to the American people. His tax cuts, impressive deregulation and handcuffs on the bureaucracy worked magic. One instance of the Grand Canyon between the two men: Mr. Trump’s belief in workers vs. Mr. Vance’s skepticism of right-to-work laws, which empower workers who don’t want to join unions.

The majority of elected Republicans view the still-small Vance crew with deep skepticism, but they won’t say so publicly. They’ve happily embraced Mr. Trump’s transformation of the party: They like its fight, see its electoral appeal and (except for some elements of trade policy) believe it gels well with their deeply rooted principles. But Mr. Vance is a bridge too far.

Don’t expect defense hawks to climb down from their principled belief in supporting the military by rebuilding defense capabilities. Don’t expect free-market conservatives to embrace government control of wages, higher taxes or Ms. Khan and the unbridled administrative state.
It’s unclear how this split would play out in a Trump administration. Mr. Vance is ambitious and may try to use his position to “manage” his boss. His Wednesday night speech suggested as much; it never got crosswise with Trump policy, yet subtly and skillfully injected Mr. Vance’s worldview. Mr. Trump might consider that left-leaning policy shifts risk blow-ups with Republicans in Congress, and could squander a GOP majority in 2026.
Then again, Mr. Vance has shape-shifted before, and possibly could again under Mr. Trump’s tutelage. Unspoken is that most Republicans viewed the Vance pick as a starting gun for a wide-open primary in 2028. No one views him as the heir, and it’s far from clear that Mr. Trump was himself thinking of the future when he made the pick. He was undecided until the final hours, and his other top choices were men vastly different from Mr. Vance in style and substance—Glenn Youngkin, Doug Burgum.
Mr. Trump may or may not have been thinking of his legacy, but he’ll need to do so now. A policy shift toward the Vance worldview risks destroying the former president’s chance to repeat his first term’s economic prosperity. And it risks leaving its next chapter in the hands of those who claim a Trump agenda but distort it for their own ends. Only Mr. Trump can decide if his unique version of the party—a party that, let’s note, is currently united and determined in a manner not witnessed in ages—endures.

J.D. Vance's Incoherent Argument for Higher Minimum Wages

Jun 14, 2024 | 7:40 AM

In an interview published this week by The New York Times, Sen. J.D. Vance (R–Ohio) calls for a more muscular federal government to intervene even more aggressively in the economy than it already does, to create what Vance calls "incentives" for American workers. In doing so, Vance inadvertently reveals one of the major flaws in this line of analysis.
Vance's opinions about these things carry significant weight, in no small part because he's on the shortlist to be Donald Trump's running mate. With an eye towards that possibility, the Times' Ross Douthat asked Vance to explain his "populist economic agenda." Here is part of the senator's response (emphasis mine):

The populist vision, at least as it exists in my head, is an inversion of [the postwar American order of globalization]: applying as much upward pressure on wages and as much downward pressure on the services that the people use as possible. We've had far too little innovation over the last 40 years, and far too much labor substitution. This is why I think the economics profession is fundamentally wrong about both immigration and about tariffs. Yes, tariffs can apply upward pricing pressure on various things—though I think it's massively overstated—but when you are forced to do more with your domestic labor force, you have all of these positive dynamic effects.
It's a classic formulation: You raise the minimum wage to $20 an hour, and you will sometimes hear libertarians say this is a bad thing. "Well, isn't McDonald's just going to replace some of the workers with kiosks?" That's a good thing, because then the workers who are still there are going to make higher wages; the kiosks will perform a useful function; and that's the kind of rising tide that actually lifts all boats. What is not good is you replace the McDonald's worker from Middletown, Ohio, who makes $17 an hour with an immigrant who makes $15 an hour. And that is, I think, the main thrust of elite liberalism, whether people acknowledge it or not.

The basic fallacy here is one that President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, and plenty of other politicians make regularly: They talk as though America is made up of one group of people who are "workers" and another group who are "consumers."
If this was so, you could focus on policies that raise wages for one group—the workers—at the expense of the other. But since most people are sometimes a worker and other times a consumer, policies that artificially apply "upward pressure on wages" also apply upward pressure on the prices consumers pay (because those wages have to come from somewhere). If you want to see how this plays out in reality, just look at California's experience with a $20 minimum wage. Prices have skyrocketed and jobs are being lost.
Pitting the two fictional camps of workers and consumers against one another might be a clever electoral strategy, but it's not the basis for sound economic policy.
There is another, deeper problem with Vance's argument here. In the second section I highlighted above, he argues that there's nothing wrong if a job is automated away after the government mandates a higher minimum wage, because the workers who get to keep their jobs will earn more. But if your job is lost due to market forces—because someone else is willing to do the same work for less—that's a problem he implies the government has a role in solving.
Taken together, those two premises effectively absolve the state from being blamed for the inevitable negative side effects of its interventions in the economy. Think about the two scenarios Vance lays out. In both, a worker has lost a job. If a centrally planned wage mandate is the cause, Vance says that's actually good because it means the remaining workers will earn more and be more productive.
Kudos to him for recognizing that automation isn't something to be feared or banned—not every populist gets that. Even so, the fact that automation can help make some McDonald's workers worth $20 per hour is likely to be little comfort to the worker who would have been willing to earn $17 per hour but is now out of a job because of a government mandate. For that matter, even though automation is a natural market response to artificially higher wages, it's not clear that the trade-off is an economically beneficial one. If it were, why shouldn't Vance want a $100 per hour minimum wage?

Meanwhile, Vance is worried about that same guy being replaced by a different worker who is willing to do the same job for $15 per hour. (That scenario, you'll note, is tinged with xenophobia. Why can't the wage competition come from another native-born American worker willing to do the job for $15 an hour?)
That seems pretty incoherent, but I think Vance is trying to play a clever game here. He's arguing that job losses (or other negative economic consequences) due to well-intentioned governmental interventions should be ignored, and the focus should be on how workers benefit from those interventions.
If you're someone who favors greater governmental intervention in the economy, as Vance does, this is exactly the framework you'd like to work within. Sure, a higher minimum wage means some workers lose their jobs and consumers pay more, but other workers earn fatter checks. Sure, cutting off immigration would probably make inflation worse, but it would protect some workers from wage competition. Sure, dumping tons of tax money on politically favored businesses and industries means higher taxes or borrowing costs foisted on everyone, but look at the shiny new semiconductor factory and the jobs created.
There's nothing new about this line of thinking. Vance is simply adding a more conservative-coded twist to the same tired arguments that progressives and other advocates for big government have used for years. In either case, the argument rests on the premise that government officials know exactly what levers to pull and what "incentives" to offer. Is a $20 per hour wage enough or should it be higher? How many factories does this town or state need? Which jobs are important enough to protect? Conservatives used to have enough humility to recognize that government officials won't have the answers to all those questions.
In place of that humility, Vance and other right-wing populists are substituting a different idea: that when the government inevitably makes mistakes while picking winners and losers, we should simply ignore the costs and focus only on the benefits.

$20 minimum wage is what Newscum implemented in CA, isn't it?

And a lot of effort to distract from Biden - Harris admin's open border and welfare state

For starters, Medicaid for at least the last 2 years has spent at least $150 billion more than the Pentagon. How much is that due to Biden's open border of allowing anyone in who asks for asylum ?

Harris is the Open Border Czar. They'll try to "remake" her over the next 4 weeks, and if it starts to go dismal than we'll gradually hear the Democrat's will have an open convention.

Follow how public the Obama's and Clinton's embrace and support Harris.

The mainstream media (and major campaign finance's) will be mostly focused on that, not on the Congressional Black Caucus.

Not sure who is better pick ? Maybe Hilary Clinton again ? Or that dolt governor from Kentucky or Shapiro from Pennsylvania ?

Newsom can't rely on looks to help him cover up his state's decay and failures.

And there it is. Your insistence on clinging to a dead system, and refusal to acknowledge the deep state, that even MSM now admits to means you will never do anything of consequence during SELECTION cycles, as you continue to waste time and energy pretending supporting corruption makes a difference. You only look at ICE, and ignore the obvious implications for when they turn it on you. You willing build the cage, never supposing you'll be on the inside when the door slams shut. Yes, this last is supposition, but it's based on governments history of abusing power that goes back to the beginning of time.

On the voting record:
* Voted to continue using US Army to build a pier that wasted millions in Gaza, check
* Voted against giving funds to border protection, check
* CO-SPONSORED bill to give a trillion dollars to Israel, and send US military to Middle East, check

And as I said, ties to DOD, DARPA, and the coming technocracy, mother-fucking CHECK.

NuttBoxer says

Voted against giving funds to border protection, check

Which one are you talking a out? The "bipartisan pork belly" bill in which funds for the border were tied to many more billions wasted in the Ukraine? I don't see any votes against border funding, and the one above certainly was not a border funding bill.

This seems like weak sauce, but ok. Nobody's perfect, if you don't like Israel and its ties to the US, maybe there's a point for you not to like him. Still miles better than anyone else. Certainly not an establishment guy just because he's pro Israel. Some people identify more strongly with their Judeo-Christian roots than others

And there it is, Israhell.

Now let's move to the middle complaint, which isn't the real complaint, but address it anyway:

That border bill was another shamnesty that would have given millions of illegals citizenship today, in return for a few bucks for 'enhanced border security' tomorrow with no control over the policy of that "Border Security". IE Biden and Kamala and Obama would leave the border wide open but buy a few high tech boondoggles to friendly companies to make it look all security-ish. Trump called out that bill for what it was. And it was defeated because of the MAGA contingent

From the propagandists own mouth:

The only Republican Senate members that pushed it forward: Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Mitt Romney, and James Lankford

Good for Vance for not supporting it.

Get off the FakeFed Right baloney train, they are literally repeating Democrat/RINO propaganda.

Look at the voting record, it was emergency funds, all for the border and fentanyl. Interestingly, Vance has a very short voting record, so he's mostly an unknown. UNLESS you look at what he did before politics, but seems you won't touch that with a ten foot pole.

When you suffer from Zionist derangement syndrome as per above, it is only a matter of time before everyone starts to look like a Zionist.

That being said we knew from Trumps bumpstock ban that he is a big government tool. He also gave big pharma a huge payday with no accountability in operation warp speed. JD Vance would be just like Trump, only more extreme in his big government tendencies as he has only started to feel the high of big government reigns of power. Still, he is much safer choice than Harris who doesn’t believe in personal accountability except for her enemies.

Massie never said anything remotely akin to Israel is state sponsored terrorism, he is simply an America first guy which is great. The fact of the matter is that if Israel is left to fight on its own - which I have no problem with - they will eventually level what you call Palestine, simply by defending themselves against forces larger in numbers, but lower in military technology. Every other country would do the same thing to survive. This conflict is far too old and complex for simplistic leftoid antifa tropes.

This conflict is far too old and complex for simplistic leftoid antifa tropes.

Alot of it goes back to the Sykes-Picot agreement and the French funding Arab bandits to push the British out of the former Sanjaks (Counties) of Greater Syria in the Mandate. I just learned about the Tagard line, which was built in the 1920s along what is mostly the Lebanese-Israeli border today, meant to inhibit crossings by Arabs from French-controlled Syria-Lebanon. The French training of Arabs due to the last breaths of colonial rivalry contributed at least a little to things.

I didn't learn this until I happened across it in a book about Ordo Wingate despite reading a couple of Arabsimp books by Brits and many proZionist histories; I guarantee "Last non-American Vagabound" and Pablo Escobar or Isfake Shamir write about it in RT or whatever front rag they write for. It doesn't help the Watermelons for people to find out the French sponsored the first Arab raiders in the Mandate.

Having a differentiated view and educating yourself before yelling tropes is the opposite. I am against monetary aid for Israel, similar to Ukraine.

They are not asking for more money at this point, just understanding their point of view as they continue to fight. You would have to actively wage war against Israel to stop them, so you're an intervention interventionist who is clearly picking sides.

A non interventionist America first person would stay out of it regardless of the outcome. I only told you what might happen in such a scenario of there are no efforts made to keep them at the table. Even the Ukraine conflict is complex and no involved party is entirely guiltless here.
