IMO, the current administration is the biggest threat to democracy in the history of this nation, and right now its PR is being lead by a clown that paints his face orange each morning.
The right wants him replaced just as much as the left – and preferably quickly enough that Vance might get 3 terms. So be careful what you wish for, because right now Trump is actually doing a phenomenal job of fueling outrage over project 2025 agendas. Someone with more intellect will be better able to mask their radical nature.
He would at most get 2.49999 terms. You have not read the 22nd amendment. You can’t get 3 terms aside from repeatedly being elected as VP and the primary president losing office 4+ times.
it’s funny and concerning you think trump cares what a piece of parchment says
This is a situation that implies he is either impeached , resigned, or dead, so I’m not sure what his interpretation has to do with this conversation
you think he will resign, or be impeached?
I envy your naivety
I do not think any of the 3 that I mentioned are likely. But that is the world view the parent comment assumes, and my comment is just continuing his assumption but showing why his extrapolations are incorrect
I said “3 terms” because his timespan in office would exceed the expected ~8 year limit of the 2 term cycle. But, before you reply, I do understand your logic, so please don’t.
3 terms is 12 years. 2+4+4 is not 12
👏
Threat to democracy world wide.
Oh wow, what’s the worst that could happen, they skip safety and defense features and the plane gets shot down and the president killed? Oh man, that would be horrible, just horrible!
And will blame liberals. Vance would probably call for open violence on any non white christans
As liberals are the other half of the same coin, they are responsible for at least half the horrible shit that happens in the country. Why not give them the blame for killing the president though, it could be the one useful thing they do in the last several years!
What are we responsible for?
Hey, you guys enshrined abortion rights into law, since you had the chance and promised to do it, right? No? Well, at the very least you didn’t use the police to brutalize anti-genocide protesters, right? No? Well, at the very least, you’re standing up to Trump and opposing his Project 2025, right?
No?
Which of those things did the aforementioned non-white christians [they probably meant non-christians, but whatever] cause specifically?
Edit: Did 100% of the people in those groups cause this?
how so? all of it was caused by solely republicans, and what did we cause? DEI wokeness? those are all conservative inventions.
It’s good they chose Boeing to build it lol
I mean, realistically, we would probably be just fine with Air Force One having no security systems at all. Like, the likelihood that someone is going to attack Air Force One probably isn’t all that high, and you can also mitigate that by choosing where to fly the thing.
And as long as Trump understands any risk that he exposes himself to…I mean, it’s not as if a future President is required to use the Trump-era Air Force One. It’s really just him and people during his administration.
Most national leaders don’t have anything like the kind of protection that the President does.
Now, granted, most also haven’t had four assassination attempts against them be intercepted in past months, but I’m also not sure that shooting down Air Force One is the easiest way to assassinate the President, either.
EDIT: And I think that it’s also worth considering that some of our norms for modern Presidential travel were developed during the Cold War, in an era of potential nuclear conflict where launch-on-warning was part of nuclear doctrine. In that scenario, the President needs to travel around with the nuclear football, and a decapitation strike might be an important early first move in a nuclear war.
But we haven’t relied on launch-on-warning for a long time. The President is a lot more expendable in the context of dealing with an opposing nuclear first strike today; it’s the SLBM arsenal used to counter that now.
Today, if a hostile state kills the President, it might produce disruption for a short period…but that disruption probably isn’t going to buy all that much, strategically.
I always thought Air Force One needed security to prevent terrorists from taking the president hostage and forcing them to release more terrorists. But, our current president already lets a bunch of terrorists go like the Taliban and Jan Sixers.
Today, if a hostile state kills the President, it might produce disruption for a short period…but that disruption probably isn’t going to buy all that much, strategically.
Can’t possibly be any more disruption than what the current president is causing… So I’d call it a win if he was taken out.
Most politicians are fine riding a bicycle to work, ride a train or a normal car, just fly a normal ass airline, things like that. But americans need them to ride in a tank because they love to kiss the feet of their celebrity overloards. I mean putin obviously can’t or kim jong-un can’t which says a lot.
please_god_so_fucking_funny.png
Finally a positive news :)
I am actually ok with this
By all means.
Please let them both ride it together, please please please.
And take the new FBI director, I hear he likes plane rides.
I like where this is going.
Isn’t musk too busy taking credit for being the ceo of Tesla? And space x and the boring company, solar city, oh yeh and twitter. Oh and wasn’t he supposed to be going through every social security payment? How will he find the time to jerk off on twitter while fixing Air Force one and all the faa safety standards. He must really be a genius (hardest fucking sigh in the universe)
“Trump dies in fatal Boeing crash, after rushing its production” is a headline id love to see
There would be a celebration in the streets. Doubly so if Musk was also onboard.
Where can I donate funds to this cause?
That can be improved by inserting “and Musk” after the first word.
please_god_so_fucking_funny.png
Please, I can only get so hard
Don’t forget JD Vance!
As VP, Vance would be on Air Force Two as a precaution.
Both planes crash into each other
“Trump dies in fatal Boeing crash, after rushing its production” is a headline id love to see
After rushing it’s production and firing all the FAA safety inspectors.
Maybe if we all concentrate hard enough we can will our reality back on track and make this happen. Somewhere around 2016 someone at CERN started a new experiment and ever since we’ve been in the wrong universe, through concerted efforts of enough of Earth’s latent psychics maybe we can push this world back towards the correct timeline.
Or maybe make things worse.
Or maybe make things worse.
I’m willing to take that chance.
It does feel like alternative history.
In a span of ten years, I lost two parents, a sibling, another sibling was committed and never recovered, nearly lost my partner of 20 years and she ended up in a coma for a month, as a result I lost our shared business, lost my car as a result, then two pets died, then lost my house. Set to all this was Donald Fucking Trump being elected twice, a rampaging virulent epidemic that half the people didn’t believe was real, and nazis coming back and genocides becoming fashionable again, and violent anti-science groups forming across the world.
It’s reeaaallly hard to not think that there’s something deeply wrong with the world. Particularly after growing up in the 80’s and 90’s when our biggest cultural upset was Ellen coming out on TV guide.
I’m sure they’re good enough right now, send 'em on over.
Sounds great.
Boeing, Musk, and a rushed time frame? I’ve rarely seen a better recipe for disaster. Maybe we are lucky and Trump and his cronies just fall from the sky even on the first flight.
It would be a nice reminder that a disaster isn’t the same thing as a tragedy.
I don’t know, President Vance sounds like a tragedy to me…
Yeah, there’s no way he’d be on the Air Force One. He’s always flying couch.
Chair Force One
Better an uncharismatic couch fucker being unable to talk his way out of hot water than a geriatric orange Hitler.
hes allegedly searched up dolphin paraphelia before too.
The worst that can happen is the plane falls out of the sky and some how Trump survives while everyone else dies.
Well, he is no angel, so the chance that he would fly is neglectable.
And don’t forget gutting the FAA.
The only job the FAA has with regards to Airforce One is to keep the sky free if AO is up there. Might be a problem, though.
Yes. Make him hasten the process. And have both of them on all flights.
