It’s like these people have never read a book in their lives.

JD Vance has a law degree from Yale.

"Let’s dispel with this fiction that ~~Barack Obama~~ JD Vance doesn’t know what he’s doing,” ~~the Florida senator~~ I said. “He knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s trying to change this country.”

Thanks for letting me crib you, Marco Rubio, you fucking buffon, because yeah. JD Vance literally has a degree in this field so he knows unequivocally what the truth actually is. He knows exactly what he's doing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JD_Vance#Early_life,_military_service,_and_education

Vance then attended Yale Law School, where he was a member of The Yale Law Journal

as Vance was about to graduate from Yale with a Juris Doctor degree.

I'm not surprised Vance knows what he's doing.

I'm surprised the people who voted for him don't, especially given how often I see a Trump sticker paired with a "We the People" window tint.

[–] refurbishedrefurbisher@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

They just have that sticker for show. I doubt a single one of them ever read the constitution.

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Unfortunately, simply reading the constitution without any knowledge of how to parse legal language or any background knowledge about major Supreme Court decisions will leave the average person more confused than informed.

So I don't doubt that people read it, but there is a reason that law school isn't simply reciting the constitution.

While the average voter may be ignorant... JD Vance absolutely knows better, he doesn't get to hide behind claims of ignorance or confusion.
