You'd be surprised how many people have defined what the VP is there for:

“It's easy being vice president—you don't have to do anything.” Joe Biden

“The man with the best job in the country is the vice-president. All he has to do is get up every morning and say, 'How is the president?’’“ — Will Rogers

“I spent several years in a north Vietnamese prison camp in the dark, fed with scraps. Do you think I want to do that all over again as vice president of the United States?“ — John McCain

“Vice president: A spare tire on the automobile of government.” — John Nance Garner

“Once there were two brothers. One ran away to sea; the other was elected vice president of the United States. And nothing was heard of either of them again.” — Thomas R. Marshall

“One seldom ever remembers meeting a Vice-president.” — Will Rogers

During Ohio State’s national championship run, they lost to an aggressively mediocre Michigan team—at home—and received a broken trophy from an incel posing as a politician. On balance, the universe is doing fine, actually.

Hopefully it’s an omen for Vance’s 2028 presidential run, assuming we still have a democracy by then.

I admit I just noticed I don't know what JD stands for. Furthermore, JD is the name I give to most of my improv chads when I have to embody one. Also, JD is still the example I offer when I explain I don't like people who introduce themselves with a nickname or initials.

We should also stop saying “disappeared” — unless, of course, someone pulls an Ollivanders wand out their ass.
