(1,430 posts)PeterTheil likes Vance. Also, Vance is a fall guy for a loss.

(35,969 posts)I know I shouldnt make disparaging remarks about RFK jr .but I just can not listen to his voice, sorry I just cant.

(17,802 posts)It would likely be a paperwork change by the rnc once they took the vote to change the ticket.
But it wont happen. Tsf just doesnt care, and would never admit a vp choice could help him.
He helps the vp, not the other way around.

(4,999 posts)Otherwise, there's no mechanism in the party rules for the presidential nominee to kick the vp nominee off of the ticket.

(17,802 posts)If tsf told him to, he would step aside. He will not be destroyed as long as he is loyal.

(55,334 posts)There would have to be a convening of the Republican National Committee to vote to oust Vance--which is both legally dubious (because there are binding contracts already signed establishing his relationship and position with the RNC) and politically untenable (since his selection was ordained by the politically powerful investor/donor class of oligarchs who fund the RNC).
This fantasy of parties situationally swapping out candidates to improve their chances is the speculation of people who don't understand party dynamics and legal obligations.

Gore1FL
(22,951 posts)I don't think the RNC and/or the Trump campaign could pull it off. It would be October before they would have signs bumper stickers and buttons made.
That's several bridges too far, IMO.

(10,299 posts)Trump is nuts, though, or should I say weird, so really nothing is beyond imagining.

Dem4life1970
(1,056 posts)...which is part of the reason that he hates Shady Vance.

(10,299 posts)Kennedy didnt endorse Trump for free. And Trump needs all the help he can get, so
.
the mind does go there.

(2,369 posts)Compared to TFG, the worm is shorter, less photogenic, and makes TFG seem more intelligent (mostly by eating the brains of his target demographic). In short it makes TFG look good by comparison. And it's both a better communicator and less creepy than JD Vance.

a group of three people working together, especially in an administrative or managerial capacity.
1. It would acknowledge Rump's neo-Russian roots.
2. It would lock in the weirdo vote.
3. We could actually see Harris/Walz win with all 538 electoral votes!

(16,446 posts)Trump will look like an incompetent clown if he does.
LeftInTX
(34,251 posts)Of course not, but I can see some on DU predicting this. (Ala, he's leaving the country)
It would be hilarious, but it would never happen.
Heck, for those who predicted he would leave the country eight years ago, why hasn't he left?
