It's sort of a nice touch after JD has been leaking to every news outlet that this was 100% wasn't his idea that they're making him own it in Pakistan. 👨‍🍳💋

Oh, I know. That NYT story was so obvious, he might as well have written it himself.

Wasn't it the Iranian's who wanted him as chief negotiator? My guess is Trump would prefer Kushner and Witkoff without JD in the room.

There’s no way for Vance to outrun this. So long as he stays in the White House, it’s as much his fuckup as it is Trump’s. And there’s no new magical off-ramp that’ll appear for the U.S. under Vance. It’s still either escalate or capitulate. All roads lead to American humiliation eventually.

If JD really truly wants to be president, his best bet is probably to resign as VP.

I read somewhere that the Iranians picked him as their interlocutor. Also nice.

Trump is going to pit JD against Rubio. He'll never endorse either of them, just toy with them.

The Vance stuff in the article was so over the top that I idly wondered if Rubio might have leaked it to drive a wedge between Trump and Vance

If trump is alive I can't see how he will be able to run in 2028. No way he will be able to put space between them without trump backstabbing him

Once Netanyahu talked Donnie Dumbass into bombing Iran - and Iran DIDN'T immediately surrender - there's been a ferocious 'TACO scramble' underway in the Trump administration to figure a way out of this clusterf*ck. Finger-pointing, lying, you name it. And, as always, WE'RE paying the price.

Thought the same thing. Trump trying to pin the fallout from the surrender on Vance even though it will be him 100% ultimately making any decisions on this.

I could imagine JD Vance being against the war, Trump blames him for not being able to end it, and then firing him because he was right about the war.

They're giving him the Michael Collins treatment. And that's where the similarities b/t JD and Michael Collins begin and end.

Isn’t it a bit of a self-own that he was 100% against this but that his influence in the WH is so insignificant it didn’t matter. And now somehow his influence on orchestrating a peace deal is going to be given some credence in that same WH?

The problem really is there is no one in the White House who is in touch with reality. That is a problem in negotiations.

Guy Moving Trump’s Mouth: I didn’t say it. He did.

Trump: That was you, dummy!

Guy: You didn’t see my lips move, did you?

Trump: They all saw your lips move!

I have to imagine he believes this is his chance to show leadership and reach for the mantle of MAGA’s eventual throne, as he stands in a room full of predatory capitalists who all hate him while he holds a single solitary bag of unsolveable dog shit

Maybe Trump wants the opportunity to "fire" JD from the negotiations. Would seem to be his common MO.

exactly.
if vp jimmy had had the grades & college boards to get a partial need/partial merit scholarship to dennison straight out of high school, he never joins the marine corps to get those sweet, sweet gi bill dollars for college.
he's never been greater than a marginal intellect.

He was playing with fire by all but claiming this wasn't his decision, etc, etc. Dangerously close to blaming Trump for something going wrong, which is one of two things that will get you fired from the Trump Administration (see Kristi Noem).
