41. Pissed off. I think we'll be better off in the midterms if Trump is still president in November.

Part of the motivation to vote against Trump syncophants in the midterms is to help put brakes on his worst instincts. I don't think that would be as much of a motivation if Vance were president - at least during a honeymoon period (which would last past November). I think more middle of the road voters would be inclined to give Vance a chance by not stacking the House and Senate against him.
