JD Vance is no hillbilly - and knows nothing about real conservative values
letters to the editor
Columbus Dispatch
July 17, 2024
Vance is no hillbilly. He's no conservative.
Donald Trump has picked fake hillbilly and former "vulture" capitalist,
Ohio U.S. Sen. JD Vance as his running mate.
Vance first gained public attention with his 2016 book "Hillbilly
Elegy," a simplistic and self-aggrandizing account of his early life.
In that memoir, Vance attempts (unsuccessfully) to explain Appalachian
culture, values and challenges in a way that fits into a standard
conservative narrative.
Vance oversimplifies and even misrepresents the Appalachian experience;
that allows him to blame the suffering of poverty and addiction on
moral and cultural failings, rather than placing the blame where it
belongs: economic dislocation and the wide availability of opioids,
both caused by unregulated corporate greed.
With the announcement of Vance's candidacy for vice president, we have
now learned that Vance is not a conservative.
By embracing Trump, Vance has adopted a political philosophy of
protectionism, xenophobia, and unrestrained executive power in
government.
Those are hardly conservative values. They are Authoritarian values.
Brent Taggart, Upper Arlington, Ohio
"At his most hypocritical, Vance, a millionaire banker who's been
affiliated with at least three venture capital firms, is aligning
himself with the GOP's war on woke capitalism. "Establishment
Republican apologies for our oligarchy," Vance tweeted in April,
"should always come with the following disclaimer: "Big Tech pays my
salary." Never mind that Vance has worked for tech moguls Steve Case
and Peter Thiel, and that one month earlier, Thiel put $10 million into
a SuperPac supporting Vance's yet-unannounced Senate candidacy. (The
Mercers have also reportedly contributed.)"
