If you’re gonna turn the mics off, just put them in separate rooms

Love this. Also, point all the lights down. That seems trivial, but is done wrong a surprising amount of the time.

Troll bait taken…

Because that’s the way it’s been since 1852. It was the same way before 1852 but at least one of the parties had a different name. The system would need a structural change (like ranked choice voting) to enable a viable 3rd party to exist.

Agree that they would happily bend any rules for trump, but the RNC already happened and they chose Vance as the VP candidate. How does the Republican Party change their rules now? They would need to have some sort of party vote I think. Emergency RNC 2.0?

No, I’m sure they’ll try to support whatever he says. But, officially the party nominates the VP candidate which they’ve already done. When Trump tells them to change it, I don’t know what mechanism exists to actually do that. The campaign on its own cannot change the ticket.

It would be peak Trump to announce a VP change without checking if it was actually possible 🍿🍿

Wasn’t Vance officially chosen by the delegates at the RNC? Can Trump actually pick someone else now? What would the party have to do to change their nomination after the convention-hold an emergency meeting and revote?

Legit thought the headline was talking about marshmallows in Illinois for a second. Like, we have the same marshmallows as the rest of the country, what’s the big deal about Illinois?
