https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vice_President_of_the_United_States

Presides over the Senate, but can't even vote in it. Unless there's a tie. And she's an advisor to the president. Literally less actual power than a random senator.

And then you get offended when people call you russian bots. You're either knowingly or unknowingly spreading misinformation. In the end, the result is the same.

"The vice president of the United States (VPOTUS) is the second-highest office in the executive branch of the U.S. federal government, after the president of the United States, and ranks first in the presidential line of succession."

Second highest office

Second highest office, but with less power than a random senator, as I've said. You've brought it up by implying that she's in power now and she's not doing anything with that power. And I'm telling you and everyone reading that it's bullshit because despite the name and ranking, she's powerless. Can't even vote in the Senate.
