    They dont really have the authority to do anything right? Their one job is to be a backup president. It’s like saying an actor’s second didn’t have any lines in the play (because the actor was there to say them all)

      Well, two jobs. Their other job is to cast a tie breaking vote in the Senate.

        Three jobs actually. Some administrations will have the VP spread oil or vasaline on satan’s asshole. A vital role if the POTUS’s penis is particularly small.
