David Rothkopf : JD Vance’s appearance at the All-In Summit was easily the most comfortable I’ve seen him, but then he was with the people he understands best: other VCs.

He says if Trump wins, Sacks looks like a kingmaker and has a vice president who owes him favors and will take his calls. If Vance loses, remaining close to his real community gives him a valuable network to tap into for future campaigns..

All-In is playing to people who consider themselves tech intelligentsia.

They want one of their own to reassure them that despite Trump 's tendency to blurt out nonsense about immigrants eating housepets, he’s a reasonable man like them.

Immigration is a crucial issue for this group of people.

I’m not sure he believes in much else, democracy included. And that seems to suit his Silicon Valley buddies just fine..
