Do you really, really think China would fight the combined US/SK/Japanese militaries over North Korea? Especially when they are locked in a standoff with India over Bhutan and their southern neighbors over the South China seas? Or are you implying they would use nuclear weapons?dimejinky99 wrote:malice wrote:GW Bush did about the same thingdimejinky99 wrote:I can't see the Chinese standing idly by while a US invasion force is on their doorstep.

I know. And that mess is ongoing. Doing it at chinas doorstep won't end the same way at all.
It would a lot quicker.

it's really too bad Hillary's not in charge. We'd be too busy fighting proxy wars with Russia to care about North Korea.

Not as far as I know, since they're elected. They can be impeached, though.BurtReynolds wrote:Can a president remove a vice president?

Nope. Only thru impeachment by Congress can the VP be removed.wease wrote:Great questionBurtReynolds wrote:Can a president remove a vice president?

Re: The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump
Originally, VPs were from the other party, so I guess that makes sense.

I'm not sure we'll see a traditional large scale war in this case. It would escalate a lot quicker to nuclear.

Re: The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump
VPs have very little constitutional power. They break ties in the Senate and are first in line of succession. Am I missing anything? 99% of what the VP does is either by tradition, ceremonial, or diplomatic. It'd be easy to neuter a VP from another party (except in Senate ties).bune wrote:Oh My God, can you imagine Trump with a Hillary VP?
