Donald Trump may replace JD Vance within 10 days—Chuck Schumer
Schumer said that Trump's selection of the Ohio senator as his running mate "may be one of the best things he ever did for Democrats."
Schumer is goading Trump into keeping him. He knows Trump is too prideful to let a Democrat be right about something.
This is actually a brilliant strategy then. It's a lose-lose.
I love how they’re fucking with him. It’s going to cause him to do more silly shit.
Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies that can't complete a coherent sentence is scared. He's looking really bad, the dementia is really getting to him. He picked a VP that he forgot was openly talking shit about him and loves fucking couches. He needs to just drop out, it's embarrassing.
I'm with you except for the fucking couches part. It was a joke someone on Twitter said that had no basis in reality (AP fact checked), and repeating it, knowing its not true, is the behavior of a bully.
Call him a fascist because that's what he is, not some made up insult with no basis in reality.
I've yet to see him deny being a couch fucker and the AP retracted their correction when someone pointed out that they can't prove he never fucked a couch. If this bullying causes him to leave the campaign, then it's working as intended. Along with being a couch fucker, JD Vance is, like all Republicans, a spineless weasel obsessed with acquiring power any way he can.
Is calling Vance a couch fucker any worse than Republicans alleging that Harris slept her way to the top?
Many fine people say he fucks couches. Many fine people.
Go ahead and troll them. It’s a lot worse than what they plan on doing to us.
I see nothing wrong with bullying a fascist. I'd do much worse if I could.
He's a fascist wealking who if he isnt able to handle such things, well fuck him. I want him to use buckshot mouthwash and if that is achieved through bullying then so fucken be it.
Absolute panic and disarray. I wonder who he would go with. Logically, it would have to be a woman or person of color to counter Harris, right? Would there be anyone who would boost him among pro-Palestinian voters, I wonder?
I don't think he wants a VP who will strengthen him at all. I think he's too prideful.
Would there be anyone who would boost him among pro-Palestinian voters, I wonder?
I doubt it, when Trump is on the record as stating that Netanyahu's main problem is he isn't going fast enough.
Trump, who routinely touts his support of Israel more broadly, has reportedly said he supports Israel in its continued “war on terror” after the October 7 attack by Hamas. And like members of the Israeli government, he has cast doubt on the continued viability of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that has been a cornerstone of US policy for decades.
At times, however, he has also been critical of the Israeli campaign. He’s said Israel should “get it over with … get back to peace and stop killing people.” But he’s also emphasized they “have to have a victory” and implied that what’s really the issue is that Israel is “absolutely losing the PR war” and “losing its power” in Congress.

Repubs have been campaigning on a platform of bigotry and hatred for decades so I don't see a woman or minority VP happening. Also Donald is personally a bigot and his eggshell ego could not handle the idea of a VP boosting him.
He’s already made his commitments to Netanyahu public. He’d be trying to reclaim the people on the right that he’s lost, not woo voters from the left. I think Haley’s the most likely replacement.
It wouldn't necessarily need to be a PoC or woman but Vance was an extremely weak pick - he's basically just a little uncharismatic sychophant from an electorally unhelpful state. Trump would probably prefer to get a swing state candidate or someone who brings votes to the table.
Weirdly enough, that might actually be Nikki Haley since she captured the "reasonable" side of the party (her policy stances were a fucking train wreck especially on reproductive rights).
The VP has to be picked by Trump for loyalty first. The person in the position has the ability to Amendment 25 him right out of office on day one. No way he picks Haley for that.
For the same reason, it's surprising he even picked Vance. It may have only happened because Musk and Thiel told Trump to. Then Musk backs out of his funding pledge, and suddenly it's being floated to ditch Vance.
He’s gonna replace pour man’s Donald Junior with actual Donald Junior.
I could actually see him doing this, and it would just make things even worse for him lmao
Rashida Tliab.
Trump would never pick a woman
My Pillow Guy for VP. C'mon it would be so much fun!
Plot twist, that's who Trump was actually trying to get but there was a misunderstanding when he asked for "that guy with the fucking cushions".
"i said fucking cushions, not cushion fucker!"
Couch-fucker to That Pillow Fucker.. Yes i like this timeline
Right up until he gets elected... Then it's not as funny anymore..
I think everyone forgot how fast the Trump team rotated during his government (what was the name of that guy that lasted 10 days? Moochie?) in comparison to Biden's government, where AFAIK, there's haven't been a lot of changes on his team.
Anthony Scaramucci: My favorite slimeball. Saw the other CHUDs in the Trump administration and then bounced after eleven days after realizing that "the juice ain't worth the squeeze". I wouldn't turn my back on him, but I would trust him over all other Trump world alumni since he has enough self preservation not to burn the world around him.
Edit: He had an unhinged interview with a reporter and was dismissed a couple days after. Go listen to the audio; I'm laughing so god damn hard at it.
NOTE: Moochie died on the way back to his home planet
Lower staff have resigned due to Israeli bombing and extrajudicial killings in Palestine. But the rank and file directors have stayed pretty consistent.
"All the best people"
Replacing Vance now would also undermine any argument they might make about switching the names on ballots for the Democrats. Those aren't valid, anyway--Biden wasn't the official nominee until the convention says so; nothing was locked in--but they would now lose the possibility of using it rhetorically.
never interrupt the enemy when he's making a mistake
Biden wasn’t the official nominee until the convention
Even then, nothing prohibits him (or Vance, realistically) from resigning.
This is mostly just funny to watch.
Kamala should sue RNC for “undermining the will of the people” in every fucking state. Litigate that shit until the last second before polls close
No, that'd almost certainly be a tactical mistake since it'd lend enough credibility to the claim to get those cases to the Supreme Court and then they'd just rule in favor of Trump in all circumstances... it'd be hard to overrule the court in a situation like that with a deadline for picking an executive and the Supreme Court has shown it's now gloves off crazy mode... no more "we're independent jurists".
I think the funny part is that he's hated by both sides. A new Ted Cruz.
Well, if a loss gets pinned on him, he'll be given the Liz Cheney/Pence treatment.
couchfucker
…and the same people who call the Democratic Party “chaotic” for replacing Biden with Kamala will have no problem shifting gears to adore whatever wretched troll they scrounge up to replace Vance.
Can't wait for Trump to come out and say his campaign should be reimbursed for all dumbass merch they had made as well. What a clownshow.
Hey, with all this talk of unity and how the Democrats should be picking a Republican to run on some kind of centrist wet-dream ticket, how about the "liberal media" starts beating the drum for donnie to kick JD off the ticket and add someone like AOC to the ticket?
You know: for "unity". For the tone - the Republicans should be utterly capitulating to the Democratic Party.
Why does no one in the corporate media ever suggest it is the Republican Party that should cave to the leftist majority in this country, but instead, the reverse is something that comes up. All. The. Time.
He's cracking yall
So I'm hearing that Harris' VP announcement will be in 11 days.
Democratic convention is 8/19 to 8/22.
I expect the announcement on or just before the 19th. So 20-21 days.
Floor speech from the VP candidate on the 21st. Harris on the 22nd.
Fair enough. At least 11 days. I'd be very surprised if it were before that.
They need a replacement alright, but not just at the bottom of the ticket.
Is it because of all the couch fuckin'?
And the frogs.
It's clear Trump picked Vance to counter Harris, so if she's no longer the VP side of the ticket, Vance is literally pointless. Ohio was going to vote Trump regardless, Vance doesn't bring any added votes that way.
He needs to wait and see who Harris picks as V.P. though.
Empty G 4VP
I just headed over to /r/conservative to skim the posts.
I'll admit that it was a very shallow glance at what they're thinking but it really doesn't look like they're as upset with Vance as liberals like to think they are.
They're not as smug as they were a few weeks ago but they're still pretty comfortable with their poll numbers.
lol i'm guessing you haven't spent much time in /r/conservative. which i don't blame you for
but the reason they don't express dissatisfaction with anything going on in conservativeland is because you'll get banned if you do
Nope he made his bed, time to lie in it.
Or he could sleep on the couch...
Sticky.
So, now that JD has provided contacts to the Silicon Valley billionaires and proven to be an iron ball on Trumps feet, he can be replaced?
I wonder how much dirty laundry he culd wash from all the stuff he has already seen inside the campaign...
He's trying to time it for immediately after Harris announces her VP pick. He wants to steal the news cycle from her.
