Billionaire Carolina Hurricanes owner on Wall Street titans embracing Trump: 'Hard to support nonsense'

Care to expand upon this? What exactly would get him pulled or removed?


Not if it is a close electoral race. With Trump and DeSantis both being Florida inhabitants they could lose the 30 Florida electoral votes.

How would they lose 30 electoral votes?

12th Amendment to the US Constitution:

The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and all persons voted for as Vice-President and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate;

Trump needs to pick a strong VP in case he, for some reason, gets pulled or removed from the election. I'd like to see his replacement on the ticket, maybe Desantis.

Biden has Kamala, no match.

Would love to see DeSantis or Younkin

Moore fits everything they are looking for with one exception.
He has a mind of his own (it's in the wrong direction but it is his) and he won't be lead by Hussein Obama.

I just have two things with Ron - one is, he has almost zero charisma. He's great as an executive, but he's a little weak on the political aspect.
That can be good - but it makes it hard to elect someone like that.

The other is - to be Trump's VP, he has to be the kind of man Trump is, and not many in politics are fearless when it comes to public image.
They can't stare down the press and say who the f needs you guys, anyway?

That's what surprised me during the debates. DeSantis is fantastic at a Press Conference but somehow that fire got lost

As HH posted below yours that pesky 12th amendment. Also I said "could" not "would" as that would be uncharted territory.

Now, care to expand upon what you meant by Trump being removed/pulled from the election?

KK, I was only opining that the Democrats seem to be doing everything they can to take him out. I'm not a lawyer nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express but if there's the will they might find the way.

I'm not a lawyer either (though I was accepted by Cornell Law School, just couldn't cover the nut or figure a way to keep my family fed by giving up employment).

As to the will and way, they have already been slapped for trying to remove him from the ballot. Their only chance now is "good old fashioned cheating".

 

[GURPS]

Hmmmm- no, not so much. How stupid do you have to be, to think you could slash the police department and replace them all with social workers? (How long did it take them to realize - that's seriously effed up. Ideology superceded good sense.)

IIRC - at the time people LIVING in those were ' hell no ' do not defund the police. but the out of town BLM / White Guilt Progressives

You know, in sports or especially contests of wits - I detest the very idea of cheating, on my own behalf. WINNING is knowing that on a fair field, YOU were the best. It's just not satisfying to cheat, not knowing if you could have won.

It's why I like so much Trump's attitude that "revenge" will be measured - in actual success. That is, if he gets elected, and is able to bring prosperity and success to the country - then it doesn't matter - the results will prove that he was right.

Of course - it's politics and the rewards for many are the acquisition and maintaining of power. So by that measure - it wouldn't matter if you cheat, so long as you're in office, and the other guy is NOT.

But I would think ANY reasonable voter would want to know - why does any party want to make SURE you can't vote for the guy?
If he is THAT BAD - why can't you just let the voters reject him?
