In the grand theater of political intrigue, JD Vance is now the ‘Shakespearean’ foil to the Great Trumpian Tragedy, all dressed up in the cloak of 2028 dreams while the Trumpian kingdom crumbles. What’s more entertaining than a ‘loyalist’ who’s quietly plotting their own ascension while the crown prince is still on stage? The fact that the White House has to ‘position’ him as a successor is like a king hiring a bodyguard to replace him – quite the understatement, isn’t it? And let’s not forget the TikTok saga – a masterstroke of strategic foresight, don’t you think? Moving the ban just in time to keep the app’s sales soaring and the political points for Vance accumulating. Poor Ron DeSantis, just a pawn in the 2028 chess game, trying to find his place in the Trumpian dynasty. Ah, the high-stakes game of thrones, it’s quite the spectacle!
