Someone finally got through to Trump that Belarus has no potash to spare. All of their production is under contract.

Someone is feeding Trump fake news, and Trump is making very public announcements based on it. The bad intel, one might suspect, is designed to make Trump look foolish, having to backtrack. I wonder if that' someone' is Vance, who desperately wants to evict Trump from the White House after the mid-terms?

Do not underestimate his intelligence. He outmaneuvered Trump in the Supreme Court, and Trump does not even know it.

    Mmmm not sure what you’re on about exactly, but I don’t think he’s smarter than any other average couchfucker.

    I’m sure that's true but, in the last 30 years between 100,000 and 150,000 people graduated that school, and most of them had the common sense to seek power outside of politics.

    Not sure how he’s topping your charts, but either way I feel very confident he has little-to-no sway with trump’s yee-haw flagtruck cult. Inevitably of course trump will stab him in the back.

    From Google AI: No, the president cannot immediately fire or remove the vice president, as the U.S. Constitution does not grant the chief executive the power to dismiss a separately elected vice president

    Vance does not need Trump's clown car supporters, he just needs the begrudged Republican Senators who lost their seats, between the election and when they are officially booted from office, to impeach Trump. The Dems will certainly go for it. There is nothing Republicans love more than a scorched earth policy in defeat.

    Where are you getting this intel, so to speak? That’s an alternate universe from where I see it. Not that he doesn’t have designs, but - that’s just highly unlikely.
