    Nothing random about his lunacy....stops armanant to Ukraine and is surprise when Putin decides to fight on.

    I think he took a first class degree in advanced lunacy.....plus a course on "look at me everyone" written by himself of course.

    PS.....Aren't we lucky that Elon Musk was born in South Africa and can never be President.

    His mate Putin can give him a few tips on how to get around that little problem.

    There is one: an ex President can stand as Vice President to another candidate. If elected, and if the new President resigns or is otherwise unable to continue, the VP can step up.

    It’s not meant to be a back door to a 3rd term and it would create a constitutional crisis but the rules provide for it in case of sudden death etc. Lyndon Johnson stepping after JFK was shot and Gerald Ford after Trickie Dickie resigned are examples.
