11. 2 incredibly egotistical, arrogant, loveless A-holes who only live for money, power, and control bumping heads.

What could go wrong with a relationship where they both want to lead, but only one can?
I'd like to see Musk drive Trump over the edge, because J.D. Vance is showing he isn't up to the VP job, let alone the Presidency.
I know he's worthless, but I don't think he'd let the new US Oligarchs run him. He'd spend all his time defending the Oval Office from assaults on his presidency, and he wouldn't have any ability to direct the Congress. It'd create a new level of chaos in this administration. Could JD pick his own man as VP, or would they wave enough money in front of him to control the pick?
