You're aware JD Vance becomes president if Trump dies right? He's a lot worse.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He is worse in a lot of ways but he doesn't have the "star power" of Trump. He's not admired by Republicans at large and he's very easily bullied

Also as far as I've heard, there are no JD Vance pee tapes

So? Trump already neglected court orders and does what he wants, Vance won't be different. When he becomes president, he'll have a lot of power and he will abuse it, just like Trump already does.

Worse? Maybe. Likely to throw out the amendment that restricts a third term? Almost certainly not. I’m more worried about Trump appointing himself as king than I am three and a half years of Vance. Plus he won’t be able to maintain the psychotic cult that Trump’s got going on right now.

Exactly. He may be a batshit bonkers shitbag, but no one likes him.

I mean the answer of what should happen to JD Vance after Trump gets chucked in the woodchipper should be obvious.

I'm hoping for a queue system
