In reply to the discussion: Calls for J.D. Vance to resign after he admits that he created pet-eating story about immigrants [View all]ShazzieB
(22,816 posts)61. Sorry, senators can't be recalled.
As to removal by recall, the United States Constitution does not provide for nor authorize the recall of United States officers such as Senators, Representatives, or the President or Vice President, and thus no Member of Congress has ever been recalled in the history of the United States. The recall of Members was considered during the time of the drafting of the federal Constitution in 1787, but no such provisions were included in the final version sent to the states for ratification, and the specific drafting and ratifying debates indicate an express understanding of the framers and ratifiers that no right or power to recall a Senator or Representative in Congress exists under the Constitution.

Like all high profile MAGAts, he will not be judged on whether he lied but rather on performance & quality of the lie

No need to wish. If Vance stays on, he will just be a drag on the Trump campaign. We win either way.

You're assuming everyone in America is intelligent and lives in the real world.

There are reports that Vance is not anywhere near as popular as Trump with the MAGAts.

Can you believe he was dumb enough to admit to making up crapola about cat and dog eating?

I wonder if the bomb threats are coming directly from the Trump-Vance campaign

Trump won't fire him, because he won't admit Haitians aren't eating dogs
