Assassination attempts have never mattered for whether or not the 'election is valid,'

Nobody in the VP slot is named Johnson, so I don't see what the problem is.

ngl it would be very funny to have a president Vance lmao. But honestly it might just be all the neocon ghouls around him doing whatever they want and be extra terrible and not as funny because he clearly has zero spine whatsoever in addition to no acumen or direction or competence.
