    I suspect JD Vance knows this but if his advice was actually constitutional or even ethical Biden and Harris could do all that this election and no matter what the vote is could just stay in power.

    Vance most likely know this but like so may Trump sycophants is just feeding the MAGA crowd what it wants to hear and knows they won’t think of any larger implications.

    Actually, Vance’s anti-constitutional stance goes back to 2021. I included his stance here because he's not the only Republican lawmaker who has advocated ignoring the Supreme Court. Texas lawmakers and Republican governors have recently told Abbott to ignore the Supreme Court's rulings.

    For those who believe that if Trump wins again, at least the Court can keep him in check, you may want to reconsider.

    BTW, regarding the example of Andrew Jackson, according to Wiki, he wasn't defiant to the Court, as Vance has suggested.

    In a popular quotation that is believed to be apocryphal, President Andrew Jackson reportedly responded: "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!"[6][7] This quotation first appeared twenty years after Jackson had died, in newspaper publisher Horace Greeley's 1865 history of the U.S. Civil War, The American Conflict.[7] It was, however, reported in the press in March 1832 that Jackson was unlikely to aid in carrying out the court's decision if his assistance were to be requested.[8] In an April 1832 letter to John Coffee, Jackson wrote that "the decision of the Supreme Court has fell still born, and they find that they cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate."[6][9] In a letter in March 1832, Virginia politician David Campbell reported a private conversation in which Jackson had "sportively" suggested calling on the Massachusetts state militia to enforce the order if the Supreme Court requested he intervene, because Jackson believed Northern partisans had brought about the court's ruling.[9]

    The Court did not ask federal marshals to carry out the decision.[10] Worcester thus imposed no obligations on Jackson; there was nothing for him to enforce,[11][12



    In September 2021 interview with conservative podcast host Jack Murphy, Vance urged Trump to fire "every civil servant" in the administration and replace them during a second term while seemingly suggesting he ignore any Supreme Court ruling that ordered him to stop.

    "I think that what Trump should do, like if I was giving him one piece of advice, fire every single mid-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people, and when the courts, because you will get taken to court, and then when the courts stop you, stand before the country like Andrew Jackson did and say the Chief Justice has made his ruling, now let him enforce it," Vance previously said.

    Trump spreading his lies and propaganda again. The criminal sociopath who will never change. He's mentally unfit to rule.

    REMEMBER, ALL OF THOSE TRIALS, AND ALL OF THAT LITIGATION YOU CONSTANTLY READ AND HEAR ABOUT, FEDERAL, STATE, & LOCAL - CRIMINAL & CIVIL - IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY CROOKED JOE BIDEN, AND HIS THUGS AT THE DOJ, IN ORDER TO INTERFERE WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2024. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED SO BLATANTLY IN THE USA BEFORE, ONLY IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. WATCH FOR IT, THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS NEW WAY OF CHEATING. THEY ARE DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY — BUT WE WILL WIN & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

    Since senator lankford worked on the bipartisan border security proposal, trump of course lies about ever endorsing him... trump will lie about anything.

    Hollywood was founded in 1853, became a district of los Angeles in 1910 and the first studio there was built in 1911. The CIA was founded in 1947. Therefore it is not possible for the CIA to have founded Hollywood https://www.britannica.com/place/Hollywood-California

    Trump lies so much he can't even remember what he says any more. A pathological liar, America hating Russia loving traitor, criminal, and sociopath losing his grip with reality is the most pathetic choice for a political party to endorse for President I've seen in my lifetime.

    Its no longer the republican party, but rather the trump party. Past republican leaders weigh in...
