Sample these:
I'm a 'never Trump' guy.. I never liked him." "My God! What an idiot." "I find him reprehensible." That was from JD Vance, first time senator from Ohio, in interviews and on Twitter in 2016, when his memoir 'Hillbilly Elegy' shot him to fame.
The BBC reports that he wrote privately to an associate on Facebook: "I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole... or that he's America's Hitler".
Now, Vance is Trump's running mate, figure that out.
A columnist in the Atlantic describes him thus: But what should we call J. D. Vance, the self-described hillbilly turned Marine turned Ivy League law-school graduate turned venture capitalist turned Senate candidate? Words fail. His perfidy to his own people in Ohio is too big to allow him to escape with the label of "opportunist," and yet the shabbiness and absurdity of his Senate campaign is too small to brand him a defector or a heretic.
