Trump is probably going to have to muzzle Vance. I'm surprised he hasn't already. Fact is Vance views himself as the smart on in the relationship, and of course he is. Jut that he's also insane, greedy, bigoted, misogynistic and arrogant. He was supposed to help Trump look better, but he's just making the two of them look terrible. At least he's giving people a chance to see the real Trump / Vance ticket.

At least 65 active duty troops died in hostile action in Trump’s presidency. Launched airstrikes on Syria and escalated hostilities with Iran. There were jihadi-inspired terrorist attacks in the United States during his presidency. And let's not forget that Trump declared war on America on Jan 6. Biden started no wars because a president does not rule the world and Trump would have sided with the bad guys like he did with the Taliban which caused American soldier's lives which he cowardly blamed Biden for.
