"There's a nonzero chance the Republicans take their vice presidential candidate off the ticket," Begala said. "He's been a dud. He's the first vice presidential nominee of either party since 1980 to begin underwater in his approval ratings."

At least going off their portraits here, Vance is also the only Vice President (well, potential Vice President, in his case) to have a beard, other than Schuyler Colfax under Grant in 1869.

Guess that's why she doesn't like that a whole bunch of her supporters are now supporting Harris.

Well, if an ex-Clinton advisor says it, it must be true. Oh the statement is "may", so there's really no story here because you can never be wrong with a "may".

Too bad Donald Trump won't replace Donald Trump. I'd prefer if he picked a real anti-government type, like Commander Biden.

Fucking LOL. What a clusterfuck.

I have no idea whether that's a good strategic response to a Harris/Kelly ticket, but speaking personally, I find Nikki Haley more-appealing than I do J.D. Vance, so I suppose it'd appeal to at least some voters.

Sure, just remember, if you change who’s on the ticket after the convention, you can’t really complain if the Democrats complain who’s on the ticket before theirs.

Another vp who hates him and flipped their position to get some power.

i think if we go back to 2015, all high rank Republicans hated Trump

And many of them still do. It’s a weird useful idiot/political survival thing. He’s their useful idiot to get what they want… but they better play by the new rules, lest they get Penced.
