A Political Thread pt. 2

I think the idea is Vance would run as President (or another lackey) and Trump as VP then Vance would resign immediately.

That's umm complicated....I guess it's how the Supreme Court feels about people being elected to Vice President when they can't be elected President when it's one of the few things they do.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

All turns on the wording of the constitution.

I think the very fact they have been spending all this time looking for legal loopholes for everything is itself evidence that they are aware their intentions are nefarious.

Yeah, but what about Hunter Biden's laptop, though?

Yeah, but what about Hunter Biden's laptop, though?

Yeah, but that's been a issue for a while. Does the supreme court interpret it on the literal wording or the intent behind the original law. Suggestions are the current supreme court would interpret based on wording not intent.

Do you really think that Vance would relinquish his power if he were elected?

It's actually strange that the vice president isn't actually elected, only the president is.

As I understand it, Thomas is the constitution purist. Although I wonder sometimes since he only seems to rule for the right on every decision.

Is it wrong to NOT support Israel when you read things like this?

Would I be anti semetic?

Trump Dept of Transport lawyers accidently files an internal memo stating they thought their own case was meritless... The incompetence of the administration is the best defence against their maliciousness.

Didn't Obama once claim he would be happy with a 3rd term even by proxy?

Quite a world of difference between floating it jokingly to a comedian and looking for legal loopholes, selling merch and getting people in Congress to table resolutions to enable it.
