Are you really trying to claim that Vance is a stupid rich guy?
Whether you or I like it, he went to Yale on a full scholarship for the first year. Meaning he was neither so rich that his parents could just let him get into Yale (he was from a middle-class family) and he wasn’t stupid.
I don’t like Vance. You don’t like Vance. That doesn’t mean we have to pretend he is an idiot.
