I really do think hammering Vance is a good strategy. The Cultists protect Trump, no matter what. Attacking him doesn't do much good. But Vance doesn't have a cult.

Now Harris, she needs to go after Trump every single day. He's the focus and he's the one she has to beat. But turn all the surrogates and the campaign on Vance. He's the weak link. Losing him from the ticket is going to start another chaotic cycle in the campaign and, with just 100 days to go, they can't really afford that.
You're right, of course. He was talking to reporters yesterday and one of them asked him about this. He said he talks to Trump all the time about this and Trump's all good with him now.
To quote the current President: "Malarkey."
Trump never forgives or forgets. Vance is smart enough to know that when he loses value to Trump, he's done. Vance better up his game fast or he's out and the degree of humiliation to which he will be subjected is directly related to the degree of debasement he's willing to do. Trump will toy with him before he destroys him.
Agree! Trump will have his good and bad days from the dementia standpoint and it's good to remind everyone that Vance is weird, inexperienced and principle-free: we don't really know which Vance would be ruling the country if Trump cannot govern.

Not always, which shouldn't be lost in all of this.
