    Vance sees kissing Trumps ass as the easiest way to be on the ticket for Fuhrer next election cycle. If Trump wins or loses he won’t be in physical/mental shape for the next election and Vance sees sticking his nose intestine deep up Trump’s ass and using the next 4 years as his sounding board to say whatever smoothbrained maga wants to get his name out there.

    It’s his Ace Ventura “put me in coach” moment.

      I think this was Pence’s play too. He just had a moment of clarity when we saw a glimpse of his future where the word “Pence” replaced “Benedict Arnold” as the default word for “traitor” and didn’t want that to be his legacy. As much as I dislike Pence, I respect him for his moment of authenticity to certify the election in the face of fascism .
