No, if it’s more than 2 years into Trump’s term, then he still gets to serve two full terms. He could conceivably serve for 10 years. He needs to take over sooner than that.
Besides, bad as Vance is, every day with Trump is far worse. At least if Vance took over Stephen “PeeWee Himmler” Miller would probably be out quickly. He’s Trump’s Wormtongue, whispering poison into his ear, and with pair of them gone, some of the worst behavior would calm down a bit.
He doesn’t know how to move the leavers of power. Every congress critter in the GOP who thinks they have a shot in 2028 will be looking to tear him down.
Sadly, there is an ever-ending shit-shoot of potential other candidates to follow. They won’t have to capture his audience or be as “charismatic” as he is. As things fall apart and degrade. They will just crack down as authoritarians do. On innocent people of every stripe.
Concern is the wrong word, delight is the correct word. The sooner he dies the better.
Nah, if he dies too soon Vance has more time to cement his power. He needs to wait like 2 years and 8 months.

If he dies soon enough this counts as Vance’s first term for 22nd amendment purposes.
As if that matters to Republicans anymore.
I really wish I could say you’re just being an alarmist.
Vance is not capable of that.
At this point I don’t believe you have to be liked to seize power.

I would rather not have to live through 2 years and 8 months more of this waking nightmare
Just know that it doesn’t get better under Vance.
