Would it hurt the Trump brand or make it more valuable if Biden resigned for a week and made Kamala 47?

All those Trump hats and shirts and mugs and other promotion items would not be accurate with VP Kamala as President.
It just would be great to thwart the MAGAs who are planning all kinds of vengeance against the Dems and any folks who are not supporters of the corrupt Trump. The time is short now but it is still possible for Biden to resign a few days before Jan 20th and hand over the reigns to Kamala. Thoughts?

for right-wing media. They would cite it as an example of why the Dems can't be taken seriously, while ignoring the dumpster fire that is their own leadership on the right.

First female president had to be squeezed in with a shoehorn.
Terrible idea.

Easily the 100th post I’ve read so far and it’s just as utterly ridiculous every time.
