Political analyst Mark Halperin said Vice President JD Vance’s tenure is markedly different from other vice presidents in the “modern” era.

In the early weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term, Vance has demonstrated himself to be the most active vice president since former Vice President Dick Cheney was in office. Halperin, on “The Morning Meeting,” emphasized that although Vance’s term is still in its early stages, he has already proven to be different from both Cheney and former Vice President Al Gore in positive ways.

WATCH:

“We never know what’s gonna happen. He could crash and burn. Trump could turn against him, although he’ll never — Don Jr., and [Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder] Tucker [Carlson] will never turn against him,” Halperin said. “And so, I will say, if you look at the modern history, influential vice presidents who had great relationships with the president — little tension and super sway with the staff and the ability to be their own person but also a team player, you can look at Al Gore. You can look at Cheney.”

“This is unprecedented in our time, what’s happening right now — his influence and the fact that everybody likes him. And he knows his lane,” he continued. “There’s no danger of what happened with Gore, with, you know, wanting to start his own political operation. No danger of what happened with Cheney, where Cheney overshadowed the president in some ways after 9/11. Like, this is unprecedented what’s happening here. And he’s proven to be so skillful.”

Vance has taken charge on issues such as finding a deal to save TikTok from a nationwide ban, rebuking European elites and using Senate relationships to assist in advancing crucial cabinet nominees. He is also aggressively advocating for the Trump administration’s interests, defending the president’s agenda as a chief spokesman of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement.

“Vance carries credibility with so many of these senators, and at a minimum, can be a radar for how they’re viewing things and inform the White House in terms of its own legislative strategy. So yeah, he definitely plays multiple parts for Trump,” Republican strategist Scott Jennings previously told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Obviously, communications is public-facing, and there’s also behind-the-scenes legislative strategy. It was a great pick for Trump.”

Podcast host Joe Rogan also heaped praise on Vance in January following his CBS News interview with host Margaret Brennan, which he called “amazing” and “a masterclass,” crediting the vice president with competently combating Brennan’s talking points. Vance appeared on “Face the Nation” on Jan. 26, where he faced queries from Brennan on issues including the economy and immigration.

“He’s great. Thank God for that guy,” Rogan said. “He’s so good at dismantling those dopey people and just breaking down — she was like, ‘This is a country built on immigrants.’ He’s like, ‘Yes, that doesn’t mean that 240 years later we have to have the dumbest immigration policy possible.’”
