JD Vance keeps showing up like a man being tested for the chair.
Tested in the briefing room.
Tested in donor rooms.
Tested on foreign policy.
Tested in front of Trump.
Tested by the machinery of power.
But the real question is not whether JD Vance wants to be president. Of course he does.
The real question is whether the power structure around Donald Trump believes Vance can operate the machine if Trump can’t.
This is not just a 2028 story. This is an Article I versus Article II story. It is about whether Congress still has the power to check the executive — or whether the presidency has become a throne that donors, loyalists, and political operatives prepare for the next man in line.
Trump can name an heir.
He cannot hand over the spell.
