Sen. J.D. Vance knows Americans can't be influenced by a billionaire celebrity with little interest in the day-to-day problems they face. Vance (R-OH) made a bold claim about billionaires to Fox News host Martha MacCallum on Wednesday afternoon. But he wasn't denouncing former President Donald Trump...
Vance needs to get a nice sofa in a secluded spot and let this whole thing blow over.
He needs to drop out.
Can VPs drop out even if they want to? I don’t think you can after a certain date. You can do a Shermanesque declaration and resign but the office would still be yours if you ran, declared you were dropping out, then won
I’m pretty sure you can say “fuck this place” at any stage of the game.
I assume that since the deadline has past for some states, Vance has to be on the ballot, even if he drops out. Trump has to carry him to term (pun intended). For example, RFK Jr. dropped out, but will still be on the ballot.
If these terrible people are elected and do not take the oath of office, then presumably the 25th amendment takes effect, and a new VP is appointed by the president, or the VP elect ascends to President if the presidency is vacant.
Vance and a sofa. He’d be the one to blow first.
Hopefully at least the sofa wears protection. Don’t want stains.
Scotchgard FTW.
I wonder if Vance has shares in 3M. Seems like given his predilections, that would be a smart idea. But being smart clearly isn’t one of his strengths.
