JD Vance Says He’s Prepared to Take Over ‘If, God Forbid’ Something Happens to Trump
"Vice President JD Vance told USA Today on Thursday that he was prepared to take over “if, God forbid,” 79-year-old President Donald Trump dies or is otherwise incapacitated.
“As vice president, you’re a heartbeat away from the presidency, and your boss is one of the oldest people to ever be sworn into office,” said USA Today White House correspondent Francesca Chambers during an interview with Vance. “Are you ready to assume the role of commander-in-chief? And why should Americans trust you to lead the country?”
Vance responded, “Well, I’ve gotten a lot of good on-the-job training in the last 200 days, but I’d also say that the president is in incredibly good health. He’s got incredible energy, and while most of the people that work around the president of the United States are younger than he is, I think that we find that he actually is the last person who goes to sleep, he’s the last person making phone calls at night, and he’s the first person who wakes up and the first person making phone calls in the morning.”"
