Best guess: Why is he hiding at camp David Medical? Strategy?

Last edited Sun Jun 21, 2026, 11:59 AM - Edit history (2)

Is he stacking his cabinet with new Rudy's and Bondis? He hates camp david. Plus, how long since he been seen at merde Lago or on a golf course?

I'm expecting the GOP to begin the new administration as he falters. Iran may have been their last straw.


So, will Mikey play VP to JD's POTUS????

His visits to Walter Reed are getting too much attention, so they're going to need to find another way to take care of him out of the public eye.

Shady Pants is definitely trying to move into the presidential role, a role for which he is massively unequipped. My main worry about him during the last year of two of this presidential term is that he's less distractible than Trump. You could always shift the Malignant Moron's attention by taking out your keys and jingling them. Look, gold (paint)! Greenland! A celebrity didn't like you! Here's somebody that made up a medal/prize to award you! Another building you can destroy and another monstrosity you can build and put your name on!

Shady will be able to focus on cracking down and consolidating power. He won't be able to keep it because everybody, bar none, hates him, but it might be a rough couple of years.

Maybe they're looking for a stand-in to play Trump

Then Executive Action comes for Couchhumper, if needed, to keep the rich getting richer and the rest of humanity busy fighting over the scraps falling from the TV tray.

Trump's Algaegate is his Watergate.



Take (all) the money and run.

And succession is more complicated than that. Others will fill in the details.
V.P. has to be nominated and confirmed, IIRC.

First off, Vice President is an elected office. This is why oranganus couldn't fire Mike Pence and can't fire j.d. Second, sinice it is an elected office the president can't simply install anywone. The president can nominate a new V.P. but the Senate has final say by either confirming the nominee or not. If not confirmed the office remains vacant until a nominee acceptable to the Senate is confirmed.

And he wants an excuse to be away from all his kids and what a lousy father he is.

I haven't seen a photo of him swatting a ball in ages - he seems to just dodder around a little then get into his golf cart.
