In a speech carried by C-SPAN, Trump claimed to have stopped a war between Armenia and Cambodia, two small countries on different sides of Asia that have never been at war with each other.

      The theory I hear is to nuke Trump after 2 years, then JD can rule for 10 years.

      I don’t buy it though. I think by the time mid terms comes around Trump will have started a war of some sort, rolled troops to large cities, and shut down voting forever.

        His ego and idiocy are definitely big enough to do this on purpose and also not in purpose - but it will happen.

      I honestly don’t know which I’d prefer. On the one hand, Trump’s obviously compromised mental condition makes him much easier to control as puppets go, but it also significantly hampers his effectiveness. On the other hand, JD Vance is likely more dangerous with the reigns of power than Trump on account of being not completely stupid, but he lacks the “charisma” (air quotes and a heavy eye roll on that one) and allegiance of the MAGA crowd that Trump has.

      Though, after saying all that, it’s not like things are going to get better as they are, and it’s not like the MAGA crowd is ever going to acknowledge Trump’s declining mental state, no matter how loudly they screamed about Biden’s, so I figure it’s probably worth it to roll the dice to see if we can splinter the right. Unfortunately, that risk of splinter is probably precisely why the 25th won’t be invoked by Vance and the cabinet - the MAGA crowd would see it as a betrayal, I should think.
