Depends if a nrw VP has already been appointed. With Vance most likely wanting to run for president, his choice for VP would be an important strategic decision, so it could take some time.

Vance is barely equipped to run a county wide program of the Boy Scouts. Hopefully he will never even be considered for VP, the man is an incompetent, dogmatic, morally bankrupt super creep.

I know. Vance never makes sense. Ever. 

The example the convicted felon and his Carnival People administration are setting will likely be used by the Democrats when they retake the White House, Senate and House in 2028, and MAGAs can void into the wind whinging for all the good it will do them. Since many Red States are already essentially Nanny States, the new Dem Admin can federalize them for their own good. Like matches in the hands of small children, loser Red States don't really have any business governing themselves. They lack the "necessities". Most seem to have as they major "employer" SSDI and SNAP.

 

Currently Gavin Newsom is doing his delightful parody of Trump, and the MAGAs are already going apoplectic, ignoring their own obvious hypocrisy. When President Newsom enters office in January 2029, I suspect his first act on Day 1 will be bulldozing the obscene concrete patio Trump installed over the once lovely Rose Garden lawn, as an example of what is to come under an America that will truly be back on the road to greatness, after the fascist detour, idiocy and tastelessness known as MAGA.

 

There will be three equal branches of government again, and the US Constitution will again be the law of the land.

Time to wake up. Your nap time is over.

When his signature is bigger than his manhood, it follows that such insecurity will bring a desire for power, which is behind all of his fascist acts and un-American rhetoric.

 

That insecurity was never so clear as in the 2016 Presidential debate, when he felt the need to pretend he's carrying more than an enoki mushroom.

 

Odd---or maybe not---that his insecurity and envy surfaced when he used a campaign speech to take about Arnold Palmer's junk. He isn't so envious of Paler's golf game, because Trump knows he can cheat at golf and award himself all the championships he can invent. About his junk, however, he can't lie, he can't pretend. Everyone from Ivana to Stormy, and maybe even Ivanka, knows he comes up shorter than short.

 

Sadly, for a while the world must suffer his woeful insecurity.

Speaking of his manhood, at least they got it right in this video, at least according to Stormy Daniels...

It’s obvious you don’t understand.   Over the years congress has shoved it’s power to the executive branch.

Step 3: Militarize cities across the country.  Get people used to seeing that.

 

Step 4: Station an army on the streets of the nation's capital.

 

Step 5: Use steps 1-4 to maintain power in the event you lose an election.

Just typed this into A1.....the answer is scary.

 

List five steps to becoming a dictator?

 

1. Build a political base by indoctrinating the uneducated population 
2. Exploit crises and provoke economic collapse
3. Gain power legally, but then undermine democracy
4. Use executive orders and emergency powers to eliminate the opposition
5. Consolidate total control through the military

And one strawman after another. About all you people got. Trump is restoring the rule of law. And that is democracy. And the days of all these democrat  saps in state governments with their sanctuary socially decaying cities-  Is coming to an end.  Trump is deploying the military to cities because SAPS like this fat so called Chicago mayor said: ' he would rather have crime than Trumps help. And if this administration was half as Fascist as ya alls BS then these sandbagging chumps as well as the far left media would not be heard.

Now compare that along with taking control of entertainment and museum's, control of the media and weaponizing the legal system to nazi Germany and hitlers approach to taking over the government.  

It's just too easy to point out their hypocrisy.  Not even sport anymore.  More like shooting fish in a barrel.

What a miserable real life loser you are, its so obvious to me

Even blind Freddy can sense that Trump is staging a revolutionary coup d'etat - create uncertainty, obtain support of the rich and powerful, gain control the bureaucracy, military and law enforcement, as well as all important media, remove any opposition, declare a new age of prosperity and happiness for all.

 

Resistance is not futile, if it happens soon enough.

 

Unless Trump is "removed" before mid 2026, the USA as we know it will be dead, or in a coma for many decades to come.
