For flat-out soullessness, nothing can replace his father.

He looks like he was made of wax. I swear he was created at Madame Tussauds.

Wax? Yeah, there is an undeniable Madame Tussaud's Chamber of Horrors vibe about the guy.

Hey, dorkface: don't get between either DJTJ or Ivanka and a window ...

My guess along these lines is the following ...

VP Vance runs for President in 2028, with Pres Trump as his VP candidate.

Then if they are elected, the then Pres Vance steps down, allowing then VP Trump becomes President for his third term.

Well if Democrats don't get to work finding a candidate who can run a "big tent" campaign, that is what we are going to get. A platform of "not Trump" isn't going to be enough to get across the finish line.

@#14 ... Well if Democrats don't get to work ...

Yup.

The Democrats have a hill to climb.

Will they get to the top?

imo, in order to do so, they need to toss aside the Sen Schumers of the party, and start looking for candidates and leaders who are more aligned with the current electorate.

But that's just my opinion. Take it for what it is worth.

Hey, if w could do it...
The Republican Party electorate have proven they will vote for anyone who elevates hate and bigotry and misogyny to the heights.

Yea good luck with that.

Don't underestimate the stupidity of the right.

For instance:

Horses*&^. This is the same as the current Trump turd in the WH - nobody is forcing anybody to choose him, just as nobody will be forcing any voter to vote for Erik.

F*&^ off with the idiotic excuses.

Electing Fredo Trump might be the only way to make the country more of a Kakistocracy than his doltard-dad has achieved.

I could poop a better president, or a better person, than anyone named Trump.
