    The only person who can start the 25th Amendment process is J.D. Vance so, um… yeah.

    Maybe if somebody offers him a really NICE couch?

      Tin foil hat theory? They are waiting until 2027 to 25th him. If they wait until then Vance would serve less than 2 years and be able to run in the next 2 elections.

        I’m not even sure they want Vance to run again. But they definitely don’t want to 25th Trump before the midterms.

        He’s about as likeable as Ted Cruz, most likely less. Why would they want him running, I wonder?

        Sure, right now he might top their hypothetical polls, but wait until they see this dingus on the usual rounds.

        Say what you want about Pumpkinhead, he seems to be liked by a certain kind of person. “JD” “Vance” seems so awkward and weird…do people see others showing up this weird guy’s rallies? Wearing “JD” gear?

        Once Dozey Don is out of the picture, there will be no hiding for this guy and I doubt even the teabagging bircher magamushferbrainz are going to be wild about him.

        Vance needs the support of both the Cabinet and Congress to complete his 25th coup. If he doesn’t have Congress, the Cabinet isn’t going to back him. And he doesn’t (currently) have Congress. He won’t have Congress until the incoming congress is seated in January.

      Trumps cult was ready to hang the last vp for less. Maybe that keeps him in line.
