The old Republican establishment never feared Vance because he lacked talent. It feared him because he has it. He speaks fluent MAGA without losing working-class realism, faith, family, economics, or restraint. That is rare. On Iran, he is threading the needle: respecting the anti-war instincts of the Trump coalition while defending a strategy that keeps America strong, avoids quagmires, and holds Tehran accountable. The neocons want another sermon about resolve. Vance offers something better: resolve with a brake pedal. For 2026, that makes him more than a vice president. It makes him a message weapon.
