But Trump’s VP nominee is “one of the best things he ever did for Democrats,” the senator said
Donald Trump may be regretting his choice of running-mate and wondering “Why did I pick this guy?” according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Over the past few weeks since Trump announced his decision, the narrative that Sen. J.D. Vance is “weird” has gained traction, and Schumer speculated that may have the former president considering replacing him.
“Every day, it comes out Vance has done something more extreme, more weird, more erratic,” Schumer said. “Vance seems to be more weird and erratic than President Trump, and I’ll bet President Trump is sitting there, scratching his head, and wondering, ‘Why did I pick this guy?’”
I know the Biden-Kamala switch just happened, but is there any precedence for a VP candidate getting swapped out after the nomination?
i don’t think anything about any of this has precedence…if it did, SCOTUS would have overturned it by now
George McGovern has entered the chat.
George’s first Veep was Thomas Eagleton, who was found to have had an extensive psychiatric history after securing the nomination.
It was a giant setback for McGovern.
iirc the second Veep was Shriver, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s father in law
