Exactly. I don't think he can get elected. But if trump kiels over during his term, and Vance assumes the post, then I wouldn't put it past him to use incumbent advantage and voter suppression to stay in office.
He has thiel's backing, which will keep too many republicans inline. Evangelicals might not like his Catholicism but they might look past that if he implements theocracy.
The republican base would fracture, which would be our saving grace, but I think that would be more advantageous if he actually has to run in an election, and not simply inherit the position.
Only 4 out of 9 VPs who finished someone else's term have ever been reelected, so it's not as sure a thing as a normal incumbent.
