He’s the one guy Trump can’t fire though

• ElProlactin 6mo ago
  He doesn't want to fire him. He wants to scapegoat him and make him unelectable in 28.

  Genuinely interested: why not? Thanks!

    The Vice President is an elected official just like the President. He doesn’t work for the President and he’s not subordinate, he just has almost no power. The only way to remove a VP is death or impeachment. I suppose the President could induce death, but that’s not really firing per se.

      He could literally throw him under a bus and not suffer any legal consequences. It's probably 50/50 whether or not senate Republican would vote to impeach him after that.

    Because he is the elected vice president, he answers to the people, not the president.

      Some say he answers to Pete Thiel

    VP is an elected official, not appointed by the president. President could sideline him, but his role in the senate cannot be removed except by impeachment.

      Like Trump would not write an executive order to fire JD Vance.

        He could write an executive order to bring back disco and it'd have the same effect.
