      If our reality was a miniseries - this 8th day of Trump’s presidency would been happening episodes deep because Trump is moving at warp speed. A batshit amount of batshit stuff has already happened. In another episode or two those in power would remove Trump in public by an assassin’s bullet or secretly by a method injecting him with an undetectable substance that kills him. The powerful would rest easy because President Vance would be in line with them and their thinking. Also - it’s a simple tie-in. President Trump is the first miniseries. President Vance is the second.
