on making a huge wrong initial pick. Follow it up with a "what's the matter trump? picking a racist, woman hater didn't work out?" statement

I guess it shows that the Republican Party is capable of a little bit of evolution - from ratfucking to couchfucking.

Stephanie Miller said that yesterday. If you ask me, it seems only fair.

and if old geezer Trump sends Vance packing, it's only because Vance, tripping over his mouth, is getting more clicks than the demented psycho at the top of the ticket..

8. Republican Party rules governing vacancies

Rule 9 of The Rules of the Republican Party provides guidance on how to fill presidential and vice presidential vacancies.[9]

It says that the Republican National Committee (RNC) is authorized to select a new candidate by majority vote or by reconvening the national convention to fill the vacancy. In the former process, the three RNC members from each state—comprised of a state chair, a national committeeman, and a national committeewoman—would be able to cast the same number of votes as the entire delegation from that state to the convention.[9] Under Rule 9(c), if the three RNC members did not all support the same candidate, their votes would be proportionately distributed.[9] For example, each RNC member would cast 13 of Kansas' 39 delegate votes.

Oh the humiliation will pour in if he dumps JD.

Nor will the Harris campaign go soft on him. "UNDECIDED Donnie", "the UNSTABLE Genius".

I can hear the surrogates now. And all of this would be TRUE!
