Vance is a very effective sleaze. His smear of a migrant community in his home state has been devastatingly effective at stirring up a lynch mob. People are casually rejecting any semblance of truth, because “Black man ate my dog!” is this statement that resonates among his supporters and among the ambient racist fucks that are looking for someone to pander to them.
