Re: President Trump 2.0
If you were JD Vance, or anyone else credible enough to actually win a general election, you would have to be clinically insane to be elected president and then, having actually been sworn in, to willingly resign in favour of an 82 year old barely continent Donald Trump. What could possibly induce you to do such a thing?
Besides, while there is just enough ambiguity in the 22nd amendment (it says ‘elected’ to the office, not subbed in), it would end up with the Supreme Court and an Oval Office without authority for at least as long as it took the case to be decided. You have to wonder whether even the modern husk of the GOP would be so self-destructive, or act in ways so obviously against the national interest.
