Marc my analysis is not yet complete, but I’m leaning towards a typology that Trump is a patrimonial not an authoritarian figure. And Vance is a right wing libertarian but the problem is that the two of them together could produce an authoritarian regime, which would by my definition require it to be an effort at truly extra constitutional acts.

JD Vance did not attend Harvard, although John Roberts and Ted Kaczynski did (Kaczynski also had a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan). Vance graduated from Ohio State University and Yale Law School. Perhaps Michael Harrington was saved by dropping out after one year at Yale Law School.
