(Full title: Columnist has ominous warning about J.D.
Vance maybe taking over presidency for Trump)
***
Obviously not a serious consideration because DJT is not
going to win...lol...yet a sharp cold slap to keep eyes
wide open, stay vigilant and keep cranking the truth til
it's over...
***
When Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) ran for president in 2008
and picked Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) as his running mate,
Democrats tried to drive home the message that Palin was
"one weak heartbeat" from the presidency, as McCain at
the time was 72 years old.
Now, however, there's a real chance that the 78-year-old
Donald Trump, if elected this year, would not be able to
serve out his full term in office.
Washington Post contributor Matt Bai warned on Wednesday
that Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) is likely to become the
president of the United States in the future should Trump
emerge victorious in this year's election.
Bai estimated that if elected, the closest comparison to
Vance would be President Dwight D. Eisenhower's selection
of then-first-term Sen. Richard Nixon (R-CA), who was
just 39 years old at the time.

"What you might not remember is that in 1955, Eisenhower,
who at 65 was considered a notably old president,
suffered a massive heart attack while on a golfing trip
in Denver," Bai recalled. "That Ike survived was pretty
much a flip of the coin. Had he died, America would have
seen the Nixon presidency 14 years earlier than it
actually did."
He then pivoted to address what a President Vance might
mean for the nation.
"We should not get to Election Day without pausing to
consider that Trump is 78 and, statistically speaking,
far more likely to die in office than the vast majority
of our presidents were. Which means we have to evaluate
Vance not just as a No. 2, but as a man who stands a
significant chance of running the country," Bai
encouraged.
That means an official with virtually no political
experience who went from an online influencer to a U.S.
Senator in the blink of an eye. In his column, Bai cited
the many others who have delivered warnings about the
vacillating moral flexibility of the Ohio senator.
But there is one glaring difference between Nixon and
Vance, he wrote: "Nixon had an abiding faith and
seriousness of purpose when it came to governance."
In contrast, Bai fears, Vance "attaches no real meaning
to governance, beyond the opportunity to be an
influencer."

That's rich. An epithet for the ages. Vance's "moral
flexibility". Old "invent a story for the attention"
JD. Mindful that story writing was his job in Iraq for
the six months he was there. Don't you have to have a
moral compass in the first place to even move the
needle about?
And Richard Nixon as having "an abiding faith and
seriousness of purpose when it came to governance."
That guy was corrupt to the core when he ran for
Congress. He literally lied his way into his first
office.
So if this soft spoken, gently worded guy is giving
warning of a Vance succession, we should be running
stark mad screaming into the streets.
