Vance is not his own man; he's the purse-puppy of spyware billionaire Peter Thiel. That's who bought him the Senate seat, and also who bought him the VP spot. He does what Thiel wants.

i mean yes obviously: but the style — the approach — is certainly millennial.

No article on Vance should fail to mention Thiel's hand on Vance's strings. Everything else about the chubby little REMF is less important than that.

agreed which is why i linked to that ("He worked in — and is shaped by — tech.") and have written about Thiel many, many times before —
