In Various News Media this Morning, I saw that Vance is INSISTING the DOJ Investigate [View all]

I saw headlines to the effect: "Vance Orders DOJ to Investigate Minnesota Leaders."

When I saw that, I had to laugh a little. Vance Can't Order Shit! He's not the President

But then, when I thought about it, I realized that the VP thinks he's going to be President soon. I think he knows that Trump is not long for the office, either through his early demise or a resignation. So J.D. Vance is trying on the power, it seems like. That is worrisome to some degree, although we all know that it's a likely enough possibility.

Just don't jump the gun, VP Couchhumper.
