    The Reds have majority control of Senate and the Supreme Court. Trump is the least of America’s problems. If they win the House too there will be no checks as it is so unbalanced.

      They already had 9 more seats than dems and net flipped is 4 towards Republicans, think its pretty safe to guess which party will have a majority. Just a matter of how much.

        It’s looking to be about a 7 seat majority. Doubt too many other seats will deviate from the current counts.

    I say this knowing many will reflexively disagree, but Vance is much much more dangerous.

      Trump wants to punish his “enemies.”

      Vance wants to usher in the technocracy. And not, like, the sci-fi dystopia one where actual engineers and scientists run things but get a bit eugenics-y.

      My unfounded conspiracy theory is that the republican handlers will have trump killed either before his term starts or short afterwards so they can have a much more controlable and competent Vance in charge to better push their agenda. And they will make it look like a Demkcrat did it as well so they fan the civil war flame even more innthe process.

      Yeah, but it would make my day, at least. Also, I think he would have less support than Trump.

    His own father lived til he was 93, so we may be waiting awhile, though Trump doesn’t exercise and eats like shit, so who knows.

      Every day he lives is another day full of hope that he dies soon. I’m a “glass still has a few drops” sort of guy.

      If you have the money, medical science has come a huge way. Rich people can live super unhealthy and still be active and mobile well into old age. Sure the brain goes, but with Trump that station was passed long ago.

      Dick Cheney is 83. McConnell is 83. Kissinger was 100.

      Evil old fucks are afraid of death for obvious reasons. They aim to live forever.

    Does the vice-president-elect get inaugurated as president if the president-elect dies before that day?

      Does the vice-president-elect get inaugurated as president if the president-elect dies before that day?

      Read section 3: https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-20/

      short answer: yes

      Apart from the very close one, there was also the guy hiding around Trump’s golf club with a gun.

        That’s was the time traveler one. The first one was just a disgruntled person. Easy to confused the two.

          Maybe you’re right and the second one is yet to make his attempt and fail.

        Strangely, the second one didn’t actually break any Florida laws.

          Trespassing? Probably something Secret Service-y about a perimeter too if I had to guess
