I don’t believe it for the one simple reason that JD Vance like many of those who entered the natcon space is a massive opportunist who now that he’s VP will side with Trump

The WSJ confirmed Trump thought Schimel would lose

And now thanks to Marc Caputo we have further context. The bromance is truly over and while he talks abt replacing every politician next year it’s another bluff www.axios.com/2025/06/03/e...
