It’s concerning that Vance is buddies with a monarchist; his mentor Thiel has written, “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible” and anti-democracy Yarvin has stated that US democracy is a failed experiment and the US government should be replaced with a CEO dictator. When Vance spoke with Sacks on his podcast he said he would not have certified the 2020 election — “I would have asked the states to submit alternative slates of electors” , this is also concerning for an American VP candidate to have these viewpoints about going against the rights of American voters .   🇺🇸&#xA;https://www.theverge.com/2024/9/14/24244137/jd-vance-all-in-david-sacks-trump</html></oembed>
