So something terrible must happen to both at the same time. Noted.
Then Mike "I-like-my-son-to-know-when-I-cum" Johnson will be in charge.
Imagine all the conspiracy theories from the maga crowd if Trump were to die.
It is very normal to talk about this.
He was specifically asked about the President's health in an interview, and gave a bog standard answer any Veep would say.
People are reading too much into this. Trump's health certainly isn't good, but he's not likely to pop off this week.
It'll be nice if I'm wrong.
A competent politician would redirect into confirming the health and longevity of the president, and not talk about the scenario of his death at all.
I gotta wonder why he said that, especially in light of all the rumours surrounding orangeman's health.
Could be Vance is giving America a head's up of things to come.
What are you even saying, there is no reason, this is NORMAL. I too keep declaring regularly to my family that I am ready to step up and inherit my dad's house ~~and live there instead of my shitty flat~~ should ThE uNsPeAkAbLe happen. This is to reassure my dear family of my loyalty to my dear old dad and my confidence in his health, obviously, may he live to 150. Normal People Things.

I don't do this, not least because I am in no shape to take care of a whole-ass house lol
He's here to fuck couches and chew bubble gum and he's all out of bubble gum.
They're going to need to wrap up the furniture in the oval office like it's moving day.
He’s going to pope trump
"If God forbid" *fingers crossed* "a terrible tragedy happens" ...
Maybe a terrible tragedy should happen to the couch fucking popekiller.
"If Air Force One, carrying Mr. Trump were struck by a missile and blown up, that would be a tragedy."
"Fantastic," exclaims Vance, "that's right. And can you tell me WHY that would be a TRAGEDY?"
"Well," says the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident, and it certainly wouldn't be a great loss."
Couchfucker is gonna use the 5-point palm exploding heart technique on Chump.
Well it worked on the pope
Guys I’m starting to think something tragic has or is about to happen…
They only need Trump to stay alive long enough to consolidate power. Then it’s phase 2. And it doesn’t really matter what anyone thinks as far as “respect” or “like” them. The long term plan is privatize everything completely moving the seat of power away from government altogether. We’re well underway.
They may think that, but it doesn't work that way. They need a singular leader to unite the base. Once that's gone, they'll fracture fast.
What comes next is probably closer to European liberalism. Better social safety net, but capitalism mostly goes on. The US doesn't have a groundswell of support to be any more anti-capitalist than that.
Maybe. Fractured, sure, but I don't think the Republicans collectively will be any less harmful without Trump. Congress and the governors will continue with the Project 2025 agenda under President Vance.
Couches everywhere should shudder in horror.
Expect the Supreme Court to overturn Couches v. Vance.
"terrible tragedy" ...yeah
Yeah, that's a weird way to spell "New National Holiday".
Trump is dead, or going to be very soon, isn't he?
What beer should I buy to celebrate?
Enjoy the very momentary joy of trumps death when it happens.
If it happens in this term, you'll find out exactly what Vance is.
The Queen mean girl of the Nazi techright.
The only tragedies would be that Trump would have escaped prison and Vance would be President.
No one will listen to that weird creep if trump dies. Things would be way more chaotic under vance.
he's finally gonna kill him
wink
To be fair he did not say that unprompted. A journalist specifically asked him if he felt ready to take the president's place should something happen. And it is downright misleading from the article writer's part to not mention that detail.
He can't wait to fuck those lovely couches in the oval office. Right now Donnie won't let him.
Before i got laid off leadership said everything is fine. I didn't believe it then and this is way more obvious.
trump is a bully who, for some fucking reason beyond the horizon of my comprehension, people are afraid of. vance is a fucking potatofaced punching bag who literally no one cares about, let alone is scared of.
maybe wishful thinking, but my single shred of hope lies in the implosion/evaporation of the GOP when trump finally fucking croaks and people are shitting on his grave
Translation: JD has selected a window
EDIT: Plot twist: the window is the roof
I don't think the country is ready for it. Think about it. If he died tomorrow would you have enough alcohol for the celebrations? I think not.
Will the loser take more vacations and flood the Ohio River Valley?
"god forbid" more like "hope he hurries up". And also "why not make it a combo meal"
The best bet here is probably to watch melania. I doubt shell be able to contain herself. Finally free amd while probably not mega rich after shit all settles. She probably wont have to worry about amything again.
