(112,088 posts)They can have the EMTs and WH physician/staff come rushing in and check pulses and cart his ass away, but making it clear that he'd "gone permanent zombie" sitting in his chair would be so apropos.

(3,537 posts)I used to think he might be a more savvy version of Old Colostomy, but it's becoming evident that the cult of personality surrounding Donald J. Trump (the "j" is for "Jinglesphincter" ) won't really outlast him.
Not at all saying I'd be happy with J.D. Vance (the "J.D" is for "Junior Dick" ) as president. But I'm not as worried about the Red Hatter coalition maintaining any sort of cohesion if the subject of their worship goes toes-up.
J.D. is so off-putting and isn't known as a super-money-achiever (i.e., businessman, good or bad), as he's not in that billionaire elite class (other than by association with Peter Thiel). He seems to try to weasel his way around any topic by obscuring the subject. MAGA is going to see that he's not being direct (stupid or not), and they're going to think they're being conned.
MAGA would rather have someone come out and confess "I'm a Nazi" instead of trying to expound on the benefits of National Socialism. (Socialism??? I didn't know you were a commie).
For this reason, I just don't see J.D. as relatable.

(1,016 posts)Marco Rubio has been whispering about Kegsbreath.
Kegsbreath has been trying to undermine Rubio.
J.D. is a soft target for all of them, but especially Don Jr.
Even before "The Big Beautiful Obituary" comes out, they will be undermining Vance. They don't like him, they don't want him.

(3,747 posts)He'd have to fire a whole bunch of the current rectum braces surrounding the current malignant mass or risk an internal civil war. Then those vindictive fulks will do everything they could to undermine him from outside 'cause haters gotta hate.

Metaphorical
(2,560 posts)when TFG finally kicks the bucket putting out all of the resulting fires to truly engage in Machiavelian plots himself.
At some point, Trump will stumble and fall. Perhaps it will be health-related, perhaps it will be the Democrats retaking Congress, perhaps it will be one outrage too far or an assassin's bullet, but he will not make it to 2028.
At that point, all of the chaos that Trump has unleashed is going to finally descend upon the White House. Vance does not have the keys to the secret blackmail files, and he won't receive them - Trump will take THOSE to his grave. Without those files (in the loosest sense of the word), Vance has no power. He has some money, but nowhere near enough by himself to spend it like water like Trump does. He has no real leverage. He lacks the bolder-than-brass charisma that Trump has, and is seen as being too effete by the hardcore MAGA. He is a Catholic, making him immediately suspect to the fundamentalists, and he will be under investigation from the moment he take office to figure out where exactly all the money that Trump stole went. He's not even terribly well liked by those of his generation.
Without Trump, MAGA falls apart. It's already disintegrating. Those who have ridden the MAGA train will do everything they can do distance themselves from it, especially as hard questions get asked. We're already in a recession, one that will only get worse, and businesses that were cowed into compliance will do everything they can to bury their involvement in the interregnum.
Personally, I think we're in a Weekend with Bernie scenario, where an increasingly unstable Trump is being propped up any way his handlers can manage, and where he physically withdraws from interacting with people altogether. I don't believe Vance will 25/4 Trump - he knows the sh*tstorm that will be unleashed once Trump is out of power (or dead), so he, Miller and Thiel will do everything they can to keep him propped up, even if they have to move his dead hand to sign executive orders.
True Dough
(25,116 posts)He possesses the snake skin and diabolical mind, but he lacks charisma entirely (well, don't tell that to Erika Kirk).
He'll soon become a lame duck replacement president.

(980 posts)and paid for his 3 x 7 space in some cemetery.........
The Cemetery is already freaking out, due to his recent health. The are worried that they won't have time, to pour a cement apron around the 3 x 7 grass area that his coffin will be buried in..........They figure that the cement apron will cover every area around the actual grave for at least a half a mile in every direction,, complete with area drains every 3 feet or so..........
They also fear that his coffin, may require a special concrete esophagus to protect the environment from his toxic remains, ever leaking out of the coffin...

I thoroughly believe, if they made it a pay per view, they could pay off the National Debt that all the Republicans have run up since Reagan
(actually Cheney) declared that Debt was good.....

(26 posts)That's the date that The Orange Monkey will no longer be president. for him that will be 2 years and 1 day as president. Congress will enforce the 25th Amendment to remove him. and then the 22nd Amendment will allow Junior Dick to be President for 10 years. but the last part will only happen if the Fascist can stop the 2026 mid-term elections.

(174 posts)Whenever a sports team wins a national title the entire city erupts in fireworks. It doesn't last very long, but it is a time honored tradition. I am not a fireworks person and am always glad when they are over, but after seeing this article, I decided to hoard some fireworks for the day that Donald Trump drops dead. I can't think of a better reason to blow some fireworks. In fact, it should become a 2nd Fourth of July for America.
