    So the party with a history of inciting vigilante violence storms a VPs airplane and isn’t shot dead by secret service.

    Is there an issue with the secret service actually doing their job, or do they just give Republicans a pass?

        So… secret service vs secret service shootout? Maybe it happened and it was so secret no-one knows about it!

          My dad knows a guy who got shot. Totally. He works with him over at that place where the cheese is made. I mean beer. They make all the beer together and they’re good friends and I know him too. My dad can beat up your dad.

      They probably view Vance less as a threat and more as an awkward and socially oblivious guy

      J.D. Vance is a U.S. Senator. The Secret Service killing him would be the opposite of doing their job…
