The Atlantic republished a 10-year old JD Vance essay that dismissed Donald Trump as nothing more than “cultural heroin.”
Wrote Vance: “He never offers details for how these plans will work, because he can’t. Trump’s promises are the needle in America’s collective vein.”
“Trump is cultural heroin. He makes some feel better for a bit. But he cannot fix what ails them, and one day they’ll realize it.”
