    Lay off Vance, everyone! The risk of actually showing how stupid and robotic this guy is is that he might get replaced on the VP candidate slot. He’s a terrible choice that’s driving people away, but if he gets replaced literally a bowl of soup would be a better choice.

      Nah I think a replacement does worse. Not because the replacement would be worse, but it shows insane weakness/ stupidity/ inability to have a coherent strategy on the part of a Trump campaign. It shows that these guys don’t know what it takes to win an election; and giving your vote to a team that doesn’t know how to win an election is a wasted vote. Its the same as why Biden was struggling; losing charges compound interest because viability is a key component of whether or not people vote for you. If you aren’t perceived as viable because of your polling, it bites double.

        This is my feeling as well. For Trump to replace Vance means Trump admitting he made a bad call. He makes horrible calls constantly, but I don’t see him admitting to a single one.

          He wouldn’t admit it. He would find something to blame on Vance (probably wouldn’t be a strain) and then “You’re Fired!” and the red hats would chuckle and never miss a beat.

            I wonder if Vance then makes the talk show circuit and turns anti-Trump while hyping his new tell-all book

              That would be funny as hell, and well frankly probably exactly what would happen.

          It also kinda nukes all their bitching about replacing Biden.

          Biden was never officially nominated. Vance was. It’s a much bigger deal that shows weakness in the party.

          Bruh, he fired like 129% of his cabinet and other higher-ups last time.

      …so you’re suggesting some kind of “replacement theory”… Go on…those dumb dumbs would hate if the meaning of that phrase got flipped. lol

        I had not considered the Mooch. That’s a great point.

        How long as Vance been on the ticket in Mooches?

      Yes, but RFK may or may not be. And at this point trump might put the wrong RFK on his ticket and get the brain worm guy instead of the dead politician.

      The more I think about it, the more I expect RFK will replace him.

        You get into the role of electors, who are supposed to submit the votes for who best represents the state’s choice or something like that. This was written back when it would take weeks to get to DC, so who knows what would be there.

      What I don’t get as an outsider - this guy (like other equally weird persons as for example Mrs. Palin) is in a rather high political position.

      How in the world are these people elected? Is it only about being in the preferred party or were their opponents even more incompetent?
