    Assassination attempts have never mattered for whether or not the 'election is valid,'

    Nobody in the VP slot is named Johnson, so I don't see what the problem is.

      yeah but that was a normal ascension after their ticket had already won.

      ngl it would be very funny to have a president Vance lmao. But honestly it might just be all the neocon ghouls around him doing whatever they want and be extra terrible and not as funny because he clearly has zero spine whatsoever in addition to no acumen or direction or competence. At least Trump is a bully and a self-aggrandizing manchild and so forcefully asserts himself in everything (often to the detriment of said 'thing') and fires people at the drop of a hat.

        He's actually quite a known coward about directly firing people when it isn't some TV show. He delegated firing declarations to others throughout his regime.

          Did they even film the firing while the candidate was in the room? I thought I read somewhere that he does the "You're Fired" thing into the camera as B-roll and they just chop it in for effect.
