From Rust Belt to Capitol Grit.
J.D. Vance climbed out of the hollers of Ohio with nothing but fire in his gut and a brain that wouldn’t quit. He went to Yale Law, made it to the Senate, and wrote the modern American dirt-road gospel—Hillbilly Elegy. But unlike most who make it big, he didn’t turn his back on his people.
He knows what addiction looks like. He’s seen families fall apart and towns get gutted. And now he’s fighting back—not for D.C., but for Appalachia, the Midwest, and every forgotten American who never got a bailout. He talks plain, calls out the phonies, and isn’t afraid to ruffle feathers.
Verdict: SphstRDnck.
Earned it the hard way—and never left his roots behind.
