Has a anybody even considered how close we are to having JD Vance as our president? I think that scares me even more than a second term of Trump. I don't think there's a snowflakes chance in h€!! that DJT will last another 3 years, one way or another, so a vote for him is a vote for Vance. |

Yes, I've thought a lot about that.
I saw something online that suggested that some ultra right wing conservation Christians who had lobbied for Vance as the VP choice were not really Trump supporters. The theory is that this group planned to use the 25th amendment to declare Trump unfit early in his term so that Vance could be president. This is terrifying. Yes, I know it's a conspiracy theory!

The Project 2025/Federalist Society/Heritage Foundation branch of the GOP is desperate to get Trump over the finish line so they can stage a coup and oust him for Vance. They know Vance would never get there without the useful idiot and his MAGA followers and they need Vance to enact their plan. Truly terrifying.

And who would be his vice president? Could Theil or Musk be a vice president since they could not become president?

i think that is the GOP's shadow mission. 1) trump is pardoned and he doesn't finish out and 2) Vance takes over

I'm at the point where I can't let myself get any more stressed than I already am. I'm actually resigning myself to it from now, because I cannot go through the actual depression I felt the last time DT got into office.

I knew that for president but I wasn’t sure for vice president. So they just want to control the president and vice president. I didn’t realize that Musk had so many issues and violations that he is trying to make go away. So the 75 million to make them go away if TFG is elected. ETA Vance would totally pardon TFG. He wouldn’t have a problem with that at all. |

He wouldn’t have a problem with that at all. Regrettably, the next Republican in the White House might pardon Trump. There are very few current Republicans that would have the courage to refuse to pardon him. I've thought a lot about a potential Vance presidency and it terrifies me. The thought of who he might have in his cabinet or as VP is also terrifying. Ron DeSantis, Josh Hawley, Marsha Blackburn, Kristi Noem, Steven Miller etc. There are moments that I am more afraid of the people around Trump than Trump himself if he gets re-elected. Thoughts of them, the Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk etc keep me up at night. Because they're not going away, even if Trump loses. The Speaker of the House is next in line and Mike Johnson is also a terrifying thought. Hopefully, he gets fired in November and we have Speaker Jeffries. |

We cannot allow another Republican president until (a) nature has taken its inevitable course with Trump and (b) the Republican party has rejected Trumpism and cleaned house in its party. |

It feels like that is the plan. I go up and down, but lately I have been feeling pretty optimistic about how all of this will turn out. Two more weeks.

Where has Vance been lately? I haven't heard much about him or things he has said. Are they keeping him quiet for now or is Trump just sucking up the air because of all of the horrible things he has said and done recently?

I can’t even imagine how difficult it must be when both of your top ticket candidates can’t contain themselves enough to not constantly say the quiet parts out loud. |
