For the few here who are not yet convinced...Will this help?

    I’m still not completely convinced – and I won’t be convinced until I see him solve an algebra question. Maybe a simple speed and distance question about 2 trains. If he says it depends on variables like how many Haitians are on the trains - then I will be convinced. Cheers!

    It astounds me that so many people can't see Trump for what he truly is and how unfit he is to hold the office of the presidency.

    This is the latest theory I heard: the plan is to get Trump elected, then remove him by whatever method possible, maybe the 25th amendment, so Vance is president. Vance has close ties to the Heritage Foundation and will implement Project 2025.

    If that is the plan I imagine they would do it in a way that democrats would be blamed. I can not imagine Walz doing something like that to Harris - but it sure does seem possible with Vance. Cheers!

    It makes sense why megadonors would contribute to someone so clearly incompetent, dangerous, and obviously in serious mental decline.

    I’m starting to wonder if the plot thing had something to do with Trump picking Vance as his running mate. Maybe the Heritage Foundation coned or bribed Trump into thinking Vance would be his best choice. Cheers!

    I'm sure Vance brought in a lot of donor money. Also, he buddied up to Don Jr and Jr recommended Vance to his father.

    Now I’m wondering if Don Jr. is part of the plot. Help get Vance in the WH – Vance becomes president after Trump is killed – Vance makes Don Jr. his VP – Don Jr has Vance killed and he becomes president. Cheers!

    Vance would nominate someone to fill the office of vice president, but that person would have to be confirmed my a majority vote of both Houses of Congress pursuant to the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

    Was Ford? He became Veep without being elected after Agnew resigned, then POTUS after Nixon did, again without being elected. Did Congress ratify him? I understand that the House was Dem majority at the time.

    Ford must have had to be confirmed since Agnew was VP.

    All the more reason to make sure Harris/Walz are elected.

    This clip from a 1958 TV show is real. The character name and dialog are not altered. The storyline seems prescient and maybe the ending is too. Did an impressionable young boy watch it and get ideas?

    I know, right?  I had to verify it before I could believe it wasn't fake. Just in case someone else doubts it, here's what I  found.

    :)

    Reminded me of this clip which my brother shared with me from "Laugh-In" from the 60's/70's. Our family watched the show a lot.
    [ (R.I.P. my dear brother, you made me laugh so much :) ]
