Wanna be V.P. Vance said the other day that if Biden doesn't run he must resign immediately.

I knew that was horseshit of course, but I wondered why he would posit such a nonsense thought.

Well my brain turned itself on instead of its usual chugging along aimlessly and I realized what he meant. President Biden resigns, Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, becomes vice president because Kamala Harris would then be president. Guess who validates the electoral votes….the new vice president…Mike Johnson…guess where that leads.

It should not go un-noted that from here on out President Bidens life is in more danger than ever before…secret service please take note.

Vance has not as far as I know repeated that statement…probably told to shut his mouth, not let the cat out of the bag so to speak.

Just saying ya know?

He said she might not be VP so let’s wait to see how it ends up. Guess what? She’s not debating him. I wonder why she had to say he was afraid.

There’s a lot of information and misinformation floating around out there.

The VP appointment would have to approved by both senate and house. Good luck with that

In absence of a VP on jan6 (or whatever date that is), the certification would be led by the president of the senate. If dems hold the senate, no issues but if senate goes red…it’s a shit show. Remember grsssley jumping up to say me me me.
