Vance does not have any of the charisma nor the following that Trump has. His ability to coalesce a ruling party is low. It’s why Trump is still in power.
The bigger issue as I see it is that Trump wants to rule by charisma first. I don’t think Vance particularly gives a shit if people curse his name - meaning that, at the first sign of things getting out of hand, I think he’s more willing to hit the “start killing protestors until the streets are red” button.
So not let perfection be the enemy of good.

Vance is a proxy for Thiel

Vance has no charisma and he knows it. He is an empty vessel made by Peter Thiel and others.
