Let there be no doubt, Trump is the symptom, not the problem. Vance is the President in Waiting (I predict he will be POTUS after the November elections), and he will be far worse then Trump ever could be. Trump is knee-jerk, Vance is cold and calculating.
But the good news is, based on the mud-slinging the Republican party is doing, they are really. really afraid they will lose the Senate AND the House in November, and they are trying to shore up support in America for their failed policies. They really, really need this trade deal, and Carney knows it. Unless they get a trade deal before November, the American political scene will look very, very different.



In case you have not been following the script, Vance does NOT want a trade deal with Canada to happen before the mid-terms. His plan is for the Democrats to win both the Senate and the House, and use that to dethrone Trump. Then he will use the fact that the split power base between the POTUS and the Senate has caused intractable stagnation so he can bypass the Constitution and implement Executive Power as the only way to get things done. This ‘slip’ is a cold calculating move to undermine the trade negotiations and set up the November election crisis. America will become a dictatorship, but Vance, not Trump, will be the dictator. Vance is just using Trump’s incompetent bungling to get there.
Part of me thinks Vance would really, really like to see California split from America, because without California it makes the country a whole lot more ‘Republican’. California is nothing but an irritant to his plans.
This very much reads like crackpot conspiracy, but I don’t know enough about any of this to dispute it.
