Nah, only applies if president and VP both die simultaneously. Harris nominates a VP who needs to be confirmed by both house and senate

Since this house would never confirm that VP I assume there just wouldn’t be one and it would be a vacant post for a while

So if VP is vacant, any idea who certifies the election?

Haha that's probably true. America#1

You think that “the left” would prefer a closeted gay man who is clearly ashamed of his gayness? Really? Wow. You don’t understand the left at all, yet you comment on politics. Foolish.


Oh you’re a fool to think he would remain closeted when not being straight is his best selling point

Why is this a selling point for the Republicans? What am I missing here?

From a strategic point of view for the democrats would it not be better if Biden stepped down today when he speaks to the people? That way Kamala would be the incumbent running the country

No, I think Dems have to use the same strategy they used before last election, but with kamala instead of biden. They have to minimize her time speaking in public.

The more she talks the less voters will like her - remember 4 years ago there was excitement when she announced she was running, but dem voters got to know her and that resulted in her having to drop out of the race.

If biden steps down that would force more opportunities that kamala has to talk. Now dems have to hide both biden (so repubs don't try to force him out as they see more evidence of his decline) & kamala (so she has a chance in Nov).


Vance is so obsessively anti LGBTQ that 1. Yes like many republicans he’s probably a closeted gay man and 2. Nothing about him being outed would be a selling point

If Hitler was found to have had a secret bar mitzvah I’m sure that wouldn’t help the brand


people didn't like Harris in the dem primary because she couldn't successfully pick out a lane between some of the other candidates. and she was too scripted while trying to do that. that is not a problem here. she should speak as much as physically possible because she looks normal compared to that senile brain rotting trump.

*Video of a peaceful protest exists*
Republicans:

Crazy. Antisemitism in the video: 0. Rioters in the video: 0. Storming in the video: 0. US Capitols in the video: 0.

Literally everything in that tweet is wrong. (that's the Cannon Rotunda, part of the Cannon Building, FYI)

Harris in a 1 on 1 setting is extremely skilled at handling her business. She couldn’t juggle her talking points with defending himself against multiple people coming at her on stage and crashed

Trump’s bigliest mistake would be debating her. Even with Fox News moderating she would destroy him

Patty Murray, if I'm not mistaken. (President pro tempore)

Maybe get RFK up there as well to make her juggle.

What's hilarious is the Dems never mention all the rioting/looting that happened a couple years back with BLM. Many more deaths, more destruction to stores/infrastructure - hell even Dems were saying to incite violence. Both parties are just salesmen - they talk a bunch of bullshit, push narratives to support their causes - meanwhile their only interest is private interest groups that will line their pockets. Anyone who supports either side strongly is just a sheep/pawn in their game - gotta wake up folks.

Why do you think protests against businesses/the man can be compared to; hunting down the vice president and the speaker of the house in order to kill them + telling the Vp not to certify an election , preventing the peaceful transfer of power?


Let’s get some facts straight first :

how many deaths occurred because of the BLM protests and over how many days total?

How many deaths occurred because of the Jan 6 protests and over how many days?


Do you agree that many of the protestors were chanting “kill Mike pence” , “kill Nancy pelosi”?

Is police brutality a political issue? Were only democrats at those rallies? Did white supremacists and/or police incite any of those riots? Were any of those riots direct attacks on our nation's government in an attempt to stop the certification of an election and enact a fake elector scheme to overturn the will of the voters?

No one on the left thinks those riots were good nor should they go unpunished. We don't call those riots "guided tours." And we don't vote for people that incited them for president.

They slammed their feet to lock everyone down and stay at home summer of 2020. Guilt tripping young people about how dangerous covid was.

Until those protests happened with giant crowds. And then suddenly covid wasn't important anymore because their voting constituency was doing the covid spreading. Can't make them mad, might lose some votes!


For the lolz

Yes it would be much better for Kamala.

What the people here blame Biden for is mostly inflation. Cost of living went way up after Covid. Regardless of how well Biden handled it, it has still affected many Americans badly especially older people who are retired or people in the middle class who missed the massive wage increases for minimum wage workers.

If Kamala were President for the next 5 months people would associate her with the complete drop in inflation that is now happening. I think it would also be helpful for the men who are sitting on the fence to see that she would handle the Presidency just fine.

The one problem would be the chances that there would be assassination attempts at her rallies. One of the reasons would be to have Republican House Speaker Johnson become president. But the other would be to cause chaos in the election without there being a way for whoever is nominated to be able to be known nationally.


I think I disagree.

First, if she's acting pres, she gets heat for negative stuff that might happen.

Second, she can focus only on her campaign and not presidential duties.

Do we really think House and Congress wouldn't confirm Kamala's VP nomination? That seems like a major vote losing endeavour by GOP.

who has trump attracted to vote for him that wasn't already voting for him in 2020?

trump's only real advantage this go round was that dems weren't super happy with bidens age.

Hispanics. Biden won them by a ton (like 37 points?) and is now losing them by 5 or 6 points. Harris is losing them by a couple points. It’s wild. I guess every demographic has self hating members.

Also, I would have asked the same question you asked in 2020, who has Trump attracted in these past four years of his dumpster fire presidency? And yet he garnered 10 million more deplorables. It’s inexplicable.

Is that counting all the Hispanics Biden & border czar let across that border? Guessing those folk aren't involved in polling
