JD Vance’s Convoluted Pitch For Why Republicans Should Just Stop Legislating Until Trump’s President Again

Don’t tempt Donald Trump into getting himself impeached again.

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), who is among a handful of Trump allies believed to be vying for a potential Trump 2.0 Veepship, put out a memo Monday that makes several convoluted leaps in logic to pitch his colleagues on why the passage of a foreign aid bill could be harmful to a second Trump presidency.

Partisan Democrats would seize on the opportunity to impeach him once again.

So, am I reading this correctly? Vance is conceding that the Democrats will win the house in '24???

Not that we needed any, but JD Vance is more proof that you can get the trash out of the trailer, but not the trailer out the trash.

Trump… publicly called… to drop the bill because its passage would be a “gift” to Democrats during a presidential election year in which he would like to use the right-wing hysteria about a “crisis” at the border to slam President Biden.

Republicans create unfixable crises.
Therefore, no Republicans, no crises.

Vance argues that, bear with me, if Republicans help Democrats pass aid to Ukraine now, Trump could be impeached again if he decides to pause some of that aid as a negotiation tactic to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in a hypothetical future where he is president in 2025.

So if Trump engages in impeachable behavior again, he could get impeached?

I’m pretty sure that’s how it works Mr. Vance.

Let’s be clear about what Defendant One really means by “ending the war in 24 hours”.

Vance was not, is not, worthy of the office…
…but if Vance is fixated on doing nothing - hastily encourage him to barricade himself in his Ohio home … for the next 11 months .

I’d put it a little differently and say that J.D. Vance is more proof that there are more horses asses in this world then there are horses.

But even more than that he is more proof that Vladimir Putin is the real leader of today’s Republican Party and for all intents and purposes is its presumptive nominee for president.

Every time I see Vance’s face I want to punch it. He has a punchable face like DeSantis, Hawley, Cruz, Graham, McConnell, etc…

Let’s just say that when the evidence comes out that Trump has been a Russian agent for decades, I will not be surprised.

I’m specifically talking about the records on the Russian side. Those likely won’t come out until after Putin has kicked the bucket.
