I’ve been following JD Vance’s career for many years, starting with his memoir “Hillbilly Elegy.” I think he is an interesting figure as he represents generational turnover in the American political system. One thing I have noticed of late is that Vance appears to be trying to imitate the style of Donald Trump, particularly through the use of insults and offensive comments intended to build rapport with his base. The problem is that Vance does not have the same charisma and comedic delivery of Trump. Trumpism without humor is simply off-putting and disturbing. This is why other avowedly “Trumpist” candidates like Marjorie Taylor Greene have had such limited appeal. It is also why I believe Trump is essentially irreplaceable. If Vance continues trying to imitate the style of Trump he is going to encounter big problems. His statements about “cat ladies” and so forth just sound callous and mean-spirited. He is better off earnestly being himself and letting the electorate judge him that way.

That’s an interesting point about trumps humor. Moderates and hardliners can interpret the same statement in different ways because some ignore the humor and some assume it’s an act

Hold up, Trump has charisma and comedic delivery? Dude has the rapport of a shady used car salesman, and anyone who has ever dealt with scammers can smell it a mile away. Fascinating to me that any of this can be framed positively. I've never seen someone do that before. Maybe that's why I've been so confused by his supporters.

I don’t find Marjorie Taylor Greene or Trump remotely funny but I understand people see it differently. I do think it’s peculiar you attribute MTG’s sense of humor as the reason people don’t like her as much as Trump. Might it be something else?

He comes off as a different person than his memoir, and then again, it's possible that life in politics and experiences could have changed him.

Sure! Here’s the translation of your response into English: --- Thank you for sharing! I completely agree that JD Vance may lose himself while trying to imitate Trump. He indeed lacks Trump’s humor and charisma, and attempting to cater to that style may backfire. In politics, sincerity and authenticity often resonate more with voters. I look forward to seeing him find his own voice instead of merely following others. --- Let me know if you need anything else!
