Talk:J.D. Vance

Unsourced

• My fear with Trump was always that he didn't have great solutions.
• My view is both that Trump is tapping into some racially ugly attitudes, but also that he is leading people to racially ugly attitudes.
• Trump's biggest failure as a political leader is that he sees the worst in people, and he encourages the worst in people.
• Mr. Trump, like too much of the church, offers little more than an excuse to project complex problems onto simple villains. Yet the white working class needs neither more finger-pointing nor more fiery sermons.
• Solutions are complex, and I continue to worry that Trump didn't fully appreciate the complexity of what's going on.

• When people read Breitbart every single day and convince themselves that Barack Obama is a foreign terrorist, that is not a problem of government. That is a problem of community failure, and we have to recognize that.
• At a pivotal time in my life, Barack Obama gave me hope that a boy who grew up like me could still achieve the most important of my dreams. For that, I'll miss him and the example he set.
• Barack Obama strikes at the heart of our deepest insecurities. He is a good father while many of us aren’t. He wears suits to his job while we wear overalls, if we're lucky enough to have a job at all. His wife tells us that we shouldn't be feeding our children certain foods, and we hate her for it—not because we think she's wrong but because we know she's right.
• [Obama]'s example offered something no other public figure could: hope.

Quote and Bible image

I have removed this edit twice now. The selected quote not only misrepresents the full quote in its original context from the source, but has also nothing to do with the image from the Bible that keeps getting added. Viriditas (talk) 05:16, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
