There's still a few hours to go..
Amendments are apparently just one more thing that Trump doesn’t understand.
Changing amendments is no problem when you have judges to "reinterpret" them at will
The list of things he does understand would be much shorter.
List:
-Eat hamberder and lie
-Do crime
I don't even know if he actually understands what a hamberder is.
like maybe that it's tasty and how to scarf them. but... not much else.... like even the whole you-have-to-pay-for-them thing.
Oh yeah, likely just the "eat" part.
Meanwhile, JD Vance sits in the corner sweating
And not just cos he's sitting on a particularly sexy couch
If he's sweating, it's only because he's afraid that Trump will die before the election.
I swear that Trump's handlers and/or Peter Thiel got him to pick Vance because Vance is all in on Project 2025. They don't give a crap about Trump as long as he lives long enough for the election to be stolen for him. Then when he drops we'll be stuck with President Vance who will gleefully run with all the fascist crap they can think of.
only if President Vance can get off the couch.
(excuse me, I just vommited writing that.)
Come on. If there's one thing we all know, it's that Vance can get off on a couch.
Pence just whistling and walking away...
Dean! Sam! Bobby!
- He really wants to run against Joe Biden still.
- He wants a mechanism to get rid of Vance
- Both?
- He has no sense of irony.
yeah pretty clearly this on top of #s 1/2. He's been saying people convicted of a crime need to always serve time behind bars, yet his convicted ass remains outside
Is it he knows that if he wins Vance can get him removed because of the dementia?
At this point, we're watching Trump disintegrate day by day and virtually minute by minute.
I'm not sure if he's even going to make it to the election. It's really starting to look like he's going to come apart at the seams before that.
I would like to believe that but there is way too much energy behind this guy. He would have to implode horrifically.
No - I mean Trump personally. Not the Trump campaign, which is a separate thing.
Yeah - the campaign, between the cultish rank and file and the cynically power-hungry donors and operatives - still has a lot of energy.
But Trump the person is visibly coming apart at the seams.
Trump the person came apart at the seams a long time ago. Trump as a “thing” still seems very strong.
Can't congress just impeach the VP?
they can also impeach the president, and, in fact, impeached Trump twice, for all the good it did.
The impeachment process relies on good faith of both parts of Congress. The Senate, controlled by Republicans, at first denied there was evidence, then when presented with obvious evidence decided that they were okay with it and no punishment was needed on a verdict already established (the actual impeachment from the House). It's like the jurors agreed there was a crime, but the judge said it wasn't a big deal and let him free.
There was literally a republican senator that said he was convinced of all the charges but that he didn't think trump should be removed.
Mitt Romney. Had a chance to do the right thing, but followed the party line.
Mitt Romney was literally the only Republican senator who voted to remove Trump for both impeachment trials. Not sure what you're referring to but all the other Republicans voting party over country are to blame.

Had they impeached Trump after Jan. 6th the. Trump would be ineligible to run for president now and we wouldn't be in this mess
I stand corrected on part of it. He did vote guilty on the first impeachment article, just not the second for obstruction of Congress. I guess at that point it didn't matter, as the Senate overall wasn't going to remove Trump anyway.
Right, there were 52 other Republican senators who could have had some spine and voted for their country over their party, but didn't. If anyone should be singled out for being at fault, it's Mitch McConnell, who voted against Trump's second impeachment conviction, even though he stated "There's no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day". As the senate majority leader, he could have whipped the other Republicans to stand up to Trump, but didn't, effectively finalizing handing the party over to Trump.
He's projecting, again. What did his whole administration do, but cover for him?
He's threatened and taking a scattershot approach.
It's called narcisstic collapse.
It sure is.
Is he almost dead already?
How about now?
He’s just mad pence is worse at it.
Also that would be an amendment.
Furthermore he’s the sort of person who’d lose his shit upon learning FDR couldn’t walk.
Dotard saying dotard things
No way in hell Trump can get 3/4 of states to ratify an amendment to the constitution. This guy is a fucking clown.
I know that he doesn't like Mike Pence anymore, but this is a bit too far.
Butthurt little baby sez what now?
I'm not a fan of this. The government covers up things for the sake of stability and this is one of those things. If your president is incapacitated, he doesn't resign, and isn't removed, publicly admitting that he's incapacitated will welcome all types of attacks from our enemies.
...so he wants to retro actively oust Pence?
Why is there all that glare on trump? Is he in a plastic box or sometime?
Yes, he's doing a Gabby Giffords at many of his rallies lol
Oh, what does that mean?
Nutjob.
