Dan Quayle got more grief for spelling "potato" wrong than JD Vance is getting for spreading a wildly racist fake post about immigrants eating people's pets
Quayle was a decent guy and got caught being a stupid guy. JV is neither. He's a well placed asset to those that know tRump is unwell and want to promote Project 2025, aka The Nazi Playbook in case the orange dipshit strokes out.

The potato thing was so crazy! fully insisting on camera to a little kid that it was spelled POTATOE
An aside, but this is my favorite Quaylism…"I was recently on a tour of Latin America, and the only regret I have was that I didn't study Latin harder in school so I could converse with those people." –Dan Quayle
