50 Shades Of Blue

30. Would the GOP roll over and play dead for Vance like they do for Trump, though?

I just can't see Vance wielding the power that Trump does. He's as evil and megalomaniac as Trump, but he doesn't have Trump's rabid following, and those people mean business. I could see Trumpers resenting the hell out of Vance if he took over, so Trump would end up still wielding power behind the scenes. Seems to me these three monsters are like that scorpions inn a bottle metaphor, lol. At this point do I think Leo has more to fear from Trump than vice versa, because Trump can sic the DOJ on the FS. And Vance would do the same thing. But either way I hate them all so fucking much!
