If Trump is impeached, which I think he should be as he commits acts of treason every day, Vance would become acting President and he's as bad as trump if not worse.

That's not to say he couldn't be impeached, too. Like a two for one special. Remember the Nixon purge. Cleaned house fairly well, even though just the threat of impeachment was enough.

That would be lovely. There's a LOT of house cleaning to do. Amazing how many cockroaches are in the White House and Congress.

With the biggest one in living in the White House. IF we ever make it to the next president (who, PLEASE GOD, HAVE MERCY ON US AND DON'T LET IT BE ANOTHER PUKE), it's doubtful that he/she would the able to Iive in it. It will take forever to fumigate/decontaminate it from the poison gas the Dictator Mental Case Psycho) sprayed and exhaled in it. Worse than COVID.

Yes, BUT securing our elections is CRUCIAL! Please see Election Truth Alliance's latest videos at ElectionTruthAlliance.org/videos including their urgent March 3 Audit Update video (9 min.) about their 2-week sprint for paper trail audits in key places to #VerifyTheVote (with volunteers and donations welcomed) as they have been discovering several new potential "smoking guns" of suspected #Election2024 manipulation with new election data obtained. Their crucial 40 min. interview on the Mark Thompson Show on Feb. 27 also laid out all of the types of suspected vote manipulations based on ongoing research. Please help amplify their crucial and timely work now! We must #SaveOurDemocracy in many ways including with the work to also #SecureTheMidterms, but we need to stop him now anyway as the ongoing damage to our government, society and allies will be far too great, by then. We must not tolerate insurrectionists, cheaters or authoritarians, nor allow them to keep pulling the wool over so many eyes!

My husband and I are poised to send postcards (which, undoubtedly, will be dumped in the trash when they reach the WH). My favorite of his is тАЬIтАЩm Going To Get You On A Slow Boat To ChinaтАЭ.

This is why we have to win the upcoming special elections in FL and NY because then it could be Speaker Jeffries as the next in line!

Bingo. And for that reason Trump/Musk/Maga will be laser focused on influencing those elections. Voters will have to demand proof they were free and fair.

Best scenario! One of the most intelligent and level-headed reps in the House. Should go far in his field.

No way! Going from bad to worse with each lowered step. Although none can be rated as even just stuck on the bottom of the barrel. Need a commission, a good bipartisan one to investigate-- as if no one already knows the damage done so far. Hope all the rest wake up in the meantime.

Both would have to be impeached, and Mike Johnson removed.

Unfortunately it won't happen since the republiCRAPS control the Senate. They're too scared to defy their Wonder Man. They love being puppets on his puppeteer strings. Actually, it's muskRATS puppeteer strings. It might happen in 2029 IF our democracy lasts until then--and the Democrats get enough of a majority in the Senate to do it.

It would only take 6 Senators of principle to get the impeachment done...

Vance can be impeached as well. And I disagree that he's be worse. Vance can't command a cult like Donald can. No one likes him much. He would be far easier to manage, simply because he is younger and wants a long career at the top. Vance is also weak and does not understand how to cultivate relationships with other national leaders. He would fail quickly.

While your statement is true that JD Vance is as bad as Trump, you are missing some key dactors in my opinion. The right wing media has been painting Trump as their ultimate savior for over a decade now. He is the Chosen One only out done, and barely, by Jesus Christ to these people. FOX News has spent 10 years of pure propaganda building him up to impossible standards and lying to their face. Also Trump spent 60 years trying to cultivate the image of a super successful businessman which I hate to say worked. JD Vance will have be the billionaires little errand boy but he can't rile the base like Trump can (he's not that morally flexible). While an extreme segment would support him, he's still not their guy and no one will be passionate about him. Getting away from the extremist, and the general populace find him weird. Basically, people will be less excited to commit crimes on JD Vances behalf.

It would the great if he was impeached. Unfortunately, it wouldn't remove the Bimbo from office. And it wouldn't happen to him, anyway. The republiCRAPS are too brainwashed by the Dictator Criminal Traitor Psycho. And I agree with you, Deborah, about Vance. Also, even if we got rid of him, we'd be stuck with the Secretary of State. Go further down the line and if my memory serves me right, it's each cabinet member in the order of when the position was created.

I agree. He deserved to be impeached the first time around and that was a circus.

Third in line is the Speaker of the House. If the 2025 Congressional elections go to the Democrats, that would be Hakeem Jeffries. He would be just fine in the Oval Office.

Vance is deeply unpopular. He is a slick, pretend populist who has none of the theatrical value that so appealed to many of TrumpтАЩs voters.

Vance is bad but he doesnтАЩt have a worshipful cult behind him. No charisma. Pretty much disliked by all

Have to remedy the order of succession. Who is after the Speaker of the house? But that is later on. Now we need a committee to investigate with recommendations on how to get our nation on the right path, as we need to restore order -- and quick! Before more damage comes down on all of us so nothing can be done to rid the top-heavy branch. General Washington had it right when he did not want to serve as the new nation's powerful leader. Make all 3 branches the way our forefathers planned without too much power in the executive side. It needs to be checked, so get back all the ones who can check agencies, and rail in the executive. How about recent moves . . . did anyone learn the lesson on what we should have remembered?

Yes but Trump-Lite doesnтАЩt have the ability to mesmerize the gullible that The Felon has. I donтАЩt know if JD would be able to get the GOPers to work together enough to actually get anything done, and he doesnтАЩt have a MuskRAT.

I agree with your statement about Vance. I've always thought that once trump is gone, that the MAGA movement will begin to splinter apart. Different republicans will believe they should take his place and none of them have whatever the hell it is about trump that maga finds so irresistible. They all fight each other for dominance and cancel each other out. Just need to get rid of trump. Vance certainly doesn't have it. Most people find him creepy.

Yes, but DJ wrote (or largely wrote) Project 25, and that is a cold blooded plan to take as much power as possible, over as many citizens as possible. I find him exceptionally creepy, but then, I also find Trump creepy, so I can't judge what his fans will go for.

Yes, and he has two terms coming if he takes over, instead of Trump's one.
