    Let’s hope he gets a heat stroke, then a real stroke and then dies.

    If he does, then we'll be left with Vance. Then all we'll have is a boring, run-of-the-mill asshole, rather than an entertaining (to make fun of) asshole.

    If it happens before the end of the year, Vance won’t be allowed to run for a third term. So if Trump croaks as a result of this heat, Vance would only be able to be in office for (at most) six more years instead of nine or ten.

    I don’t think Vance would realistically win in the next election regardless. But it would be comforting to know that if he does, it would for sure be his only full term.

    He should remember to keep his coat on. That's what killed William Henry Harrison

    It'll be like his campaign speech where he just rambled on incoherently for a while, slow-danced by himself for a half-hour, then maybe ramble on a little more. That's what makes it so "long."

    Don't forget the sycophants that have to clap after every sentence.

    You mean the paid-to-attend "audience?"

    The Jan 6 promoters can bus in thousands of fellow felons.

    On January 5, 2021, the day before the Washington, D.C., protest that led to the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack, Kirk wrote on Twitter that Turning Point Action and Students for Trump were sending more than 80 "buses of patriots to D.C. to fight for this president".[36][37] A spokesman for Turning Point said that the groups ended up sending seven buses with 350 students.[36][38] In the lead-up to the storming, Kirk said he was "getting 500 emails a minute calling for a civil war".[39] Publix heiress Julie Fancelli gave Kirk's organizations $1.25 million to fund the buses to the January 6 event. Kirk also paid $60,000 for Kimberly Guilfoyle to speak at the rally.[40]

    At least one of the promoters can't lol

    Is there any evidence of this? I mean, he is an unprecedented crook in the office, but he’s also a cult leader.

    I mean, the crowds at the Great American State Fair are a pretty good indicator. I’ve seen longer lines at my local Starbucks. The administration had really lofty attendance expectations, and forgot to account for the fact that Russian bots can’t visit the fair. This was aired on Fox News, which means it is the most flattering crowd shot they could find:

    Probably the only blow job he can get these days.

    Bullshit. There's probably plenty of people who would be happy to lick that little button mushroom. I'm sure Ted Cruz would do it.

    Because everyone knows the quality of a speech is proportional to the length of the speech. 🙄

    Is there an xkcd for those who've heard of it before, but thought it was so stupid that they completely forgot about it & had to re-learn about it again (& who think it's even more stupid now, so the cycle is likely to happen again)?

    It is pretty stupid and not very funny. The numbers shown in the knowyourmeme site also shows it is not really a widespread thing, so the entry is probably created by the handful of friends which made it up in the first place.

    He's also going to do it at 9pm which will be ~88°, nowhere near the 100+ he was bragging about. Kinda doubt he's even going to do it outside (so the temperature won't even fucking matter).

    Dudes a lying asshole.

    It's going to be on video. It's hotter than hell and his handlers don't want him doing a Zachary Taylor.

    Calling the unhinged bullshit that spews forth from his mouth a speech is generous.

    I had lunch at a pizza place the other day while he was on the TV running his yap about some nonsense. Thankfully the sound was off. He started when we came in. We ordered some pizzas, leisurely ate, sat around for a bit and the old buzzard was still just rambling on about some shit as we were leaving.

    I am 100% certain that nobody had any prepared remarks, it's not like he would have stuck to them anyway or even bothered to read. I'm pretty sure that his people just give him four adderall and a red bull, rev him up and send him out there to wander from topic to political enemy, to talking about what he had for lunch to christ knows what.

    These are not speeches, these are just the unhinged ramblings of a senile angry old asshole who hasn't the decency to just die already.
