You guys still don’t get it.
Donald Trump handing the movement to JD Vance is exactly what the base wants. We knew we needed our strongman to choose a truly intelligent, capable successor to carry forward what has been built. This is the killing blow to so many great visions in human history that never quite made it. We finally have it with Vance.
This isn’t about minor policy differences. I’ve come to agree with Mystery Grove’s analysis of JD Vance’s Megyn Kelly interview, and I’ve said it many times on the Wave Space: Vance needs to fully embrace Donald Trump’s non-ideological foreign policy if he wants any chance of repeating that success and making it effective. Not just his core leaning towards the non-interventionist side. Trump had that too and was able to perfectly navigate that.
For all of you claiming “JD Vance represents the Tucker side of the GOP,” that’s retarded. He represents a side of the party that has been suppressed for the last year, the side whose guy was just taken out by a radical trantifa assassin. At his core, JD Vance is carrying the Charlie Kirk wing of the GOP. And while many of us didn’t love him going on Megyn Kelly, he didn’t do it for her corner of the right. He did it for our corner, the one that rejects blind loyalty to a secular nation-state in the desert and refuses to pretend Donald Trump is a Jewish slave to the Epstein class. It’s working.
But what Vance truly represents is the chance to intellectualize and operationalize this movement, now positioned to become the operating system of the federal government.
He’s young, charismatic, thoughtful, yet commanding. We have something rare here: a genuine shot that most strongman movements in history never receive.
Your single-issue obsessions, whether over Israel or left-wing hysteria about Palantir, will not define the agenda. Doubt me? Check TikTok and Instagram comments on Trump and Vance’s “sudden switch” on Israel. For years my followers and I have argued that Trump’s approach is transactional and practical, not ideological. We made practically zero headway.
Then Vance went on the interviews and articulated it from a position of strength. People listened. We can cite Jonathan Pollard saying in 2020 that Trump was “no friend of Israel,” or Trump’s rocky history with Netanyahu. None of it moved the needle until Vance broke it down sensibly, with neither Tucker style trooning nor Levin style trooning.
And this isn’t only about Israel. I’m far more excited to watch Vance wield the MAGA framework on domestic priorities: immigration enforcement, economic nationalism, and institutionalizing the gains Trump fought for. We didn’t need Trump to be our Obama. Trump has no parallel (maybe FDR from a partisan mirror lens). What we need now is Vance as our “Obama”. The figure who soaks in the fruits of that labor and makes MAGA the permanent operating system.
Would I love to see Vance torch Tucker on live television? Absolutely! But he hasn’t yet earned Trump’s latitude with the base. He will one day. What he is doing is giving our side the intellectual ammunition to push back where it matters, while exposing more normies to realities they only discovered post-October 7th.
That’s how you win.
