He's a late adopter of the MAGA worldview, having once fretted that Donald Trump could wind up being America's Hitler. Vance's ascent has, to a significant degree, been powered by a small group of technology billionaires with Peter Thiel, who poured millions into Vance's 2022 Senate race, at the center.
While it's technically still possible to replace Vance on the G.O.P. ticket, Trump is probably stuck with him. In any case, you really want to think of Vance as an avatar, not of hillbillies as the title of his memoir would have you believe but of tech bros.
