I can’t wait to see what logic they use to justify the fact that he committed a crime before he was president and was convicted after he was president.
“It’s a well established fact that being president changes a man. Therefore the Trump who committed the crime is a different person from the Trump who was convicted. The conviction cannot stand.”
Ah yes. The amnesia defense
Real question. If Trump goes to prison, does Vance take over at president? If so, would Trump be eligible for another since he only served one term due to this?
I don’t think he’d automatically take over. They’d probably have to use the 25th Amendment to allow the cabinet to transfer power, because god knows he’d never give it up himself.
But Trump would not be eligible for another term. The 22nd Amendment says “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice”.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be shocked if there’s another Trump assassin soon after the inauguration, maybe even at the inauguration, but this one is strangely successful and then Vance becomes president.
They’ll do it shortly before the 2026 midterms so they can declare martialxlaw and cancel elections.
🙏🙏🙏 (not Vance becoming president, the event which would precede that)
I can see what you’re saying, but I’d rather have a dumb Nazi in charge than a smart one.
I have said this and I will keep saying it… Vance doesn’t want to be vice president… He doesn’t talk like he’s going to be… It’s weirdly like he believes he will be president, at least that’s the vibe I get from this guy… As soon as trump does something crazy he’s going to say he’s unfit for office…
I know if you were to go back in my comments I have said that I need to take a break from the news and that’s clearly true. But I also need to call out how fucking stupid all these articles asking “Will trump ***”, the people that need to be informed about them aren’t going to be swayed if they even read them. The effects will have to hit them for them to care
