A week after Trump’s election victory, a Manhattan judge is poised to decide whether to uphold the hush money verdict or dismiss it because of a U.S. Supreme Court decision in July that gave presidents broad immunity from criminal prosecution.
Real question. If Trump goes to prison, does Vance take over at president? If so, would Trump be eligible for another since he only served one term due to this?
I don’t think he’d automatically take over. They’d probably have to use the 25th Amendment to allow the cabinet to transfer power, because god knows he’d never give it up himself.
But Trump would not be eligible for another term. The 22nd Amendment says “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice”.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be shocked if there’s another Trump assassin soon after the inauguration, maybe even at the inauguration, but this one is strangely successful and then Vance becomes president.
I have said this and I will keep saying it… Vance doesn’t want to be vice president… He doesn’t talk like he’s going to be… It’s weirdly like he believes he will be president, at least that’s the vibe I get from this guy… As soon as trump does something crazy he’s going to say he’s unfit for office…

They’ll do it shortly before the 2026 midterms so they can declare martialxlaw and cancel elections.
🙏🙏🙏 (not Vance becoming president, the event which would precede that)
I can see what you’re saying, but I’d rather have a dumb Nazi in charge than a smart one.
