        By RNC rules, Vance would have to step down first. He can’t be replaced unilaterally (though trump could pressure him to do so or the like)

          Tbf, I could ENTIRELY see a circumstance where Trump “fires” him anyway, Vance doesn’t step down, Trump ignores this and proceeds to pick a new VP even though he technically can’t, and both Vance and new guy spend the remainder of the election desperately trying to get orange senpai to notice them.

      I mean, his previous administration was a constant revolving door, alluding that he made many mistakes

      Bruh, trump loves firing people, and his supporters love him firing people.

      There’s no blame on himself when trump fired someone, that’s who’s getting all the blame and usually why they’re being fired.

      Not how it works. The blame will go to staffers which will be demonized as liberal traitors who infiltrated the campaign to hamper his absolute path to victory in November.

      He is the hero who corrected the mistake and now puppy killer K. Noem is the right choice.

      he fired a lot of his own appointees wouldn’t those also be error admissions? Not to mention that he’ll happily gaslight news anchors etc.

      My guess is he picked Vance to secure financial support from silicon valley billionaires and he needs that money more than anything
