    I’d assume his wife must be horrible for having married him in the first place, but also Vance was saying “Trump is America’s Hitler” several years ago and it didn’t sound intended to be a compliment. Seems like he’s changed a lot. I feel bad for her.

      I don’t feel bad for her at all. What kind of woman doesn’t know her husband is a piece of trash? Or what kind of woman stays married to a fucking nazi once she find that out? I’ll tell you, a garbage kind of woman.

        This is not commentary specific to her, and I’m not defending her at all with this response, but I do want to note this:

        A lot of people hide who they really are to lock in their partners with children, debt, etc. Things like abuse don’t start out on day 1. And we need to be careful with this sort of rhetoric.

          Agree with this partially because I had a sibling marry a person who hid a problem they had/may still have. However I think the warning signs were there, they just chose to ignore them ( and that is a whole other story).

            Ya sometimes, especially when we are younger and maybe lonely and just want to be loved we certainly ignore red flags, or worse, think we can fix it.

              As friends and family, we can only once and very gently voice concerns. Put the seed of doubt in there, and then wait (sometimes years) from them to realize.

              Anything more and they double down on the bad relationship

      Ah, a man with no morals, ideals or conviction is willing to say whatever it takes to get into a position of power? Excellent husband and father material right there.

      Look at Stephen Miller’s wife. Look at Melania. Terrible horrible humans.

      Women married to these types are aligned with them.

        Yeah, they know the game they are playing, then don’t care about their relationships other than making sure they get to keep the power/status

      Nah. He’s been shit since before he became the VP pick. She knows who her husband is. She’s educated, has a career. She could have walked away at any time. She supports him.

      I’d have to see proof that she’s horribly abused to the point of living in fear for her life Is she left, before I’d have sympathy for her.

      If you learn even a little bit about Peter Theil’s harem, you’ll learn that theres literally NO way she doesn’t know she’s a beard.

      It’s not like he changed… it’s just good old hypocrisy and having no morals… he just believes whatever is convenient to believe in order to gain advantage
