Running for VP with a yes man as president is right out of Pooties playbook. He did than with Mendeleev.

This is so ------- stupid. One of the reasons Democrats failed to hold Trump accountable for the things he did do is because they wasted all their energy and focus on things he "might" do. It's hard to believe this isn't the work of a mole operaton.

Perhaps you can tell us which government position Hunter Biden filled or why democrats had to hold a private citizen accountable for anything.
Don't worry with a response. I'm sure whatever you vomit up won't be worth the time it takes to read it.

He's the son of a sitting president who was found guilty on a weapons charge and ultimately defrauded the government through income tax evasion. He's also held positions as a liaison between foreign governments and private energy companies linked to his father.

No, not unless the constitution is amended and it won't happen.

This idea, while sound on paper, will never happen. It would require (1) King Dotard II to peaceably relinquish power at the end of his term, and (2) Dotard will place him self BEHIND another in a line of politicians.
