Why did he change his name?
Spoopy.
Anon is skeptical. Maybe Trump is spotlighting him to expose him.
Anon doesn't trust him
>In Mr. Trump’s defense, James David Vance has had a number of names in his life, a function of an upbringing marked by domestic instability and a revolving door of father figures, as chronicled in his best-selling 2016 memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy.”
>At birth, Mr. Vance was named James Donald Bowman, after his father, Donald Bowman. Mr. Bowman was Mr. Vance’s mother’s second husband — Mr. Vance wrote that they split up when he was a toddler, and that Mr. Bowman gave him up for adoption when he was 6.
>After the divorce, Mr. Vance’s mother married Bob Hamel, who became J.D.’s legal father, and she changed her son’s name. James Donald Bowman became James David Hamel, swapping out her ex-husband’s first name for her uncle’s name, David, to preserve the “J.D.” — which by then was Mr. Vance’s established nickname. (“This seemed a bit of a stretch even when I was six,” Mr. Vance wrote. “Any old D name would have done, so long as it wasn’t Donald.”)
>A few years later, Mr. Hamel and J.D.’s mother split up. “One of the worst parts, honestly, was that Bob’s departure would further complicate the tangled web of last names in our family.” His mother, he wrote, took the last name of “whatever husband she was married to.” Her own parents (“Mamaw” and “Papaw”) were Vances.
>When J.D. got to Yale Law School, he began to tell his friends about his childhood and his identity. His legal father, whose name was on his birth certificate, was a “total stranger.”
>After he graduated from law school, J.D. married a former classmate, Usha Chilukuri, and they both changed their last name to Vance — “giving me, finally, the same name as the family to which I belonged.”

Anon, like most other anons, is suspicious of everything; jaded and cynical. I don't like this pick, but I realize this board doesn't know all the background stuff. Gonna wait and see what happens.
A woman screaming , "put up your hands!" and a man yelling "put up your hands!" just aint the same. There's no command presence there. There's no intimidation there. It has nothing to do with how well trained, it has to do with psychological fear perception of a woman vs a man.
