And nothing will come of it. America's political system has collapsed.

"No really guys. THIS time we got him for sure!"

Only if the oligarchs think Vance will fit their interests better.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He clearly would, so there's something else going on here. My guess is they're scared to lose the support Trump has as a cult leader.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Definitely. The only way they get Vance is killing Trump. Likely it's not worth the risk to that right now.

Exactly why I said the political system has collapsed.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Our constitution has the 3/5th compromise because our country has literally always been set up for oligarchs

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yep, hopefully if you survive Trump you'll need to overhaul your entire system to prevent a repeat, that's a big if...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah. We need to throw out the constitution and start over imo. The Supreme Court being weaponized by the far right has basically made this government unsalvageable. Not that that will happen

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Other countries have rewritten their constitutional documents to modernize them. Can’t do that here, because it’s sacred. Sigh.

Honestly good luck with that.
