Yet. He just has to survive the next 4 years. That unto itself is a long shot.

I'm really hoping he doesn't make it to January 20th. Even Couchfuck would not be as bad.

Juvenile Delinquent Vance is gonna be a scary MFer if he gets the prez post - which I expect he will, one way or another, within a year.

He's a Heritage Project (aka Project 2025) toadie and he makes Pence look normal.

With The Tangerine Terrorist, we've got a rambling nutbag with his buddies on his cabinet to stroke his ego. With JD Christofacist, we'll be in a world of hell.

I want a world without Musk calling the shots. I don't think Vance would tolerate Musk around for too long. Could be wrong. Trump is very easily manipulated because he's a narcissist and he's STUPID.

No no no…Musk is as much his boss as Thiel is! These two white guys from other countries have no business futzing around in OUR government!

Worse than Musk, Vance is beholden to Peter Thiel, who is a real Nazi and more mentally organized than Musk is. I believe that Vance wouldn't hesitate to kick Musk to the curb in a heartbeat.

Anyone who believes Vance and Mush and Thiel et. al. are not going to be driving the Dumpty clown car behind the scenes from the get-go is missing the core fact.

Dumpty is a lunatic babbling fool with no plan whatsoever.

He is the distraction, the shiny metal object, an empty suit. The snake oil salesman with no product other than babble.

The billionaire Tech Bros are the power behind this facade and they have real money.

Not like Dumpty who has debt-'wealth'. They have m-o-n-e-y.

The only thing that'll be missing if Dumpty dies a week from now will be the charisma. Dumpty is a lame duck anyway. He has no future, he is no future.

I agree he's about as bad as it gets, but he wouldn't have the cult, which would cost him at least some support in congress. I don't think he would be able to push anything through.

Who's everyone? Who really likes Trump that's in government? No one. His dipshit supporters may love him, but anyone with a brain can't stand Trump. They're afraid of him - big difference from liking him. The best thing about Vance is that he doesn't have and will never have a cult.

They wouldn't be afraid of Vance, because he doesn't have a cultful of insane and often heavily armed worshippers.

Everyone should realize by now that Trump is merely a useful idiot, Vance will certainly have his pals, the tech bros like Thiel, Musk, Bezos, Howery, Levchin the (PayPal mafia), coupled with a number of shaggy haired young billionaires of Silicon Valley, the Heritage and other powerful organizations behind him. That thought should bring pause Richard!!

Brilliant!! I’ve been saying that for a while, but not nearly as well. Just Deviant Vance is MUCH scarier IMHO than tffg, because he has the same morals, more ambition, and is willing to be anyone’s tool who’ll let him have power. He won’t telegraph his punches (or not-Twitter them) nor make as much noise. He’ll just move quietly and set things up, and suddenly we’ll find ourselves cut off at the knees.

No David, I think the only reason it appears that Couchfuck would be better is the fact that he can actually string a bunch of words together to make a coherent sentence. But Couchfuck is far more dangerous in the long run. He’s young, smarter, and has the total backing of Thiel and Project 2025. I think in the end, the wannabe-dick-tator will inevitably be replaced in the very near future with Tyrant Vance, who may actually choose idiot boy Don Jr. as his VP to appease the Magats and keep him on a short leash.

David, I totally agree. Donald doesn’t want the job. I really wonder if he’s not going to resign and then get pardoned and all the benefits or something. It’s not quite clear to me, but he may be looking forward to pulling a Nixon. He loves the spotlight but hates to work. On the other hand, he is trying so hard to make the whole world. Hate him even more that the people who were on the fence about doing something about him just got off the fence. Plus, he looks like garbage and is old and falling apart. Something has got to give. I just don’t think he’ll make it the full four years And I would be OK with that. I hate him that much I would actually welcome the inexperienced way in over his head JD Vance.

Trump will never voluntarily quit the presidency. He didn't run this time just to stay out of jail. That's not why he ran in 2016. His narcissism and greed are the main factors that drive him.

Let’s not put the cart before the horse, anything can happen in the next four years. There’s another old saying; “the more things change, the more things change.” Meaning that nothing is normal about this person, or how he got into power, and this creates more anomalies. We should all buckle up for a bumpy ride.

Me too. Before the election I watched MSNBC every day, even had it on in my car on Sirius radio. But no more. I can’t bring myself to listen to anything Trump/republican related. I have turned it on in the past couple days just to hear updates about the CA fires. I just have to bury my head in the sand and take a break from politics for my own sanity. Jeff is the only one I get political news from because he’s so damn entertaining, and I share his opinions.

How so? His sentence today was "unconditional" -- means he can NEVER be prosecuted again in the future. And while he's prezzident, all the crimes he commits while in office can never be prosecuted b/o the horrific "presidential immunity" SCOTUS ruling in June.
