And this thing about "I can't be fired" is clearly not an innocuous little blip on the map. Have any VP's gone out making public statements about their immunity? Did you see Joe Biden say "Barack Obama can't fire me" - no.
It is when your boss has a "my way or the highway" attitude who is famous for firing people. Vance is highlighting that he is in a position to butt heads with Trump and be a lot more candid with him because he can't be quickly dismissed.
 
This is about a half hour and its from almost 2 days ago now but it covers the earthquakes, iran and everything else.
If you care about American foreign policy you should listen to it.
 
I like vance he plays his role well. Holy shit though, Marco Rubio has went from someone I was ambivalent about to becoming my favorite person in this administration. Every single time I hear him speak he is just great. He also handles the press like a fucking champion.
All true, but I find it hard to get behind a spic who voted for amnesty a decade ago.
 
The lawfare is working: because other countries know Today A Federal Judge Ruled will always happen, they aren't taking Trump seriously:

Trump threatened 100% tariffs on Europe. Here’s why nobody flinched
A year ago, when President Donald Trump threatened sky-high tariffs on nearly everything coming from everywhere, global markets trembled and foreign leaders scrambled. Now the same threat barely registers.
That’s largely thanks to a February Supreme Court ruling that stripped the president of his most potent tariff weapon and left him with far more limited options for making good on his threats.
None of the authority Congress has granted the president to impose tariffs allows him to do so whenever he wants,” said Jeffrey Schwab, senior counsel and director of litigation at the Liberty Justice Center, which led the Supreme Court tariff case. “Unless and until those procedures are followed and the conditions met, the president cannot impose tariffs,” Schwab told CNN on Friday.

It is entirely possible that even if Republicans keep Congress in the midterms, Trump may be as ineffective as any President in the last 2 years of their term when they lose the midterms, due to lawfare successfully blocking and undoing everything he tries.

Then the Eurocrats are retarded. Trump can put 100% tariffs on them and by the time John Roberts gets enough bribes to rule them illegal, the EU won't have any industry left.
 
Trump is going to throw both Rubio and Hegseth under the bus before this is over. Just watch. Then you'll have his permission to turn on them too.

Anybody seen Hegseth lately? That's because he's been huddled up with his own personal criminal lawyers preparing for whats about to happen to him. But what do I know right?
That decides it. Vance will have to retire.
The ticket needs to be Marco Rubio.
With Vice President Stephen Miller.

Government's going to waste money anyways. So I'd rather waste it on this shit and make me laugh instead of nig nog and illegals.
yeah at least it's dumb stuff I can chuckle at instead of interpretive dance about the plight of the endangered snail
Im so pissed about this shit

The ONLY way to get this is to travel to Passport Agency in WASHINGTON DC, so now I gotta hurry up and get a flight there asap because theyre only doing like 30000 of them gdi
is there some reason swamp creatures need to get new passports in the immediate future?
tbh I could see this is some low key fuck you to make it so if you want a passport for globohomocon2k26 you have to get a trump passport staring back at you

"100% tariffs" is such obvious hyperbole that it's not a surprise no one took it seriously, irrespective of what judges in Hawaii and the California coast might have done. An issue like pushing higher tariffs has to be done at levels that might seem excessive but still plausible, but Trump's aging Boomer impulse control led him to announce a figure that any first world nation would treat as a joke.
 
Canada is on the verge of shattering, it sounds like the Carny is spending money like water and bailing out his buddies in the real estate industry and Alberta is seriously thinking about leaving. It might not be that hard to install a puppet government after letting them suffer for a few years.
If we need bodies to go pacify the syrup suckers, I will happily volunteer.
 
I think it's really funny that whenever a prominent leftist gets outed as being buttbuddies with a convicted pedophile their defense is always some variant of

"Sure this person raped a four year old but they support my retarded ideology so."

If you can't find someone that isn't a pedophile who supports your politics maybe that's a sign you should believe in something else.
 
Then the Eurocrats are retarded. Trump can put 100% tariffs on them and by the time John Roberts gets enough bribes to rule them illegal, the EU won't have any industry left.
It's also hilarious because they did work.

trump buck broke europe on trade after the tariff shit he's been doing.
This deal was reached last year and people were seething about it then, the EU has just now got around to ratifying it because it has to go through the slog of Euro bureaucracy. At this rate, the sunset clause will be reached before anything on the ground happens.

Lol at having it expire when the new president is in office. Euros are really optimistic that they are going to get another dem that will wipe their ass and allow them to take advantage of Americans.
