With no charisma or leverage to get anything extreme done. It isn't their daughter in law that controls the GOP and is able to fund primary challengers.

You think they’d impeach the younger smarter asshole who wants to hurt their enemies?

No fucking way. The Republicans want this. Trump is only useful for his distraction otherwise they would have stopped musk.

Plus it gives them an incumbent to run in 2028 (if they aren’t already planning to run Trumps corpse again).

They'd be morons to run Vance in 2028. As sitting VP he can't fill a high school auditorium.

Only if the US still has legitimate elections. Guess we'll see during the midterms.

I didn't say anything about impeachment. What would matter if they did anyway? A presidential impeachment has never ended in consequences. No, they just want have the ability to jam through controversial bills or wars. Congress won't just go along with them.
