4 more years? Nah. 6 months before they turf him.

This'll be a Vance presidency.

I really wished what little labor protections we had could have lasted my lifetime.

They were always a compromise to prevent violence.

America was an "At-Will" Democracy

Real Vanity Fair image, in case you were curious like me. From this article, about a quarter of the way down (on mobile at least): https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/donald-trump-wins-presidential-election-2024?srsltid=AfmBOoqLRfHo70JfvoeZaBIJqUpWHxf0nO_UKHUatbC_cgIqMWF3_dU9

I just don't get why they never learn. I thought you were saying this is spoofed and the real cover was in that article....but nope that's the really real image. The right LOVES images like this, it does nothing to inform the base besides giving a "cool counter that he's beating". Show pictures of him going down on the mic on stage, show pictures of how old and fragile he is, anything but the stupid mugshot/he's a bad guy motif that's done nothing for the past year.

Kudos to them for having the courage to put this out

Assuming...you know...Biden will lose his record for oldest president ever and the gerontocracy continues.

Gotta think 2029 brings the biggest drop in age for a long time, JFK was 26 years younger than Eisenhower. We could beat it with a 56 year old in 2029. Vance would break that record if by election or...you know...but I think Whitmer would be 56 exactly. Wes Moore, Buttigieg, Josh Shapiro would all break it.

wonder how long itll be before he vacates all his convictions and suit penalties

[–] [email protected] 26 points 9 hours ago (4 children)

While he can't legally vacate his state felony convictions it will either go:

  • The judge gives him a slap on the wrist to appear neutral, because liberals love taking the high road and shooting themselves in the dick.
  • Trump tries and SCOTUS gives him a free pass because it is 'part of his duties as president' to not go to jail or whatever fucking excuse.

If the judge is brave enough to actually put him in prison trump will just ignore it.

This is the guy who never pays his business partners. Who is going to make him go to prison? Someone immune to criminal prosecution and in charge of the military surrounded by yes men in control of every branch of government.

The same guy who has avoided all consequences for anything he has ever done up to now and was allowed to run again. The sentencing date was set specifically after the election to see the results first.
