I don’t remember the exact wording, but basically to be eligible to be VP one must meet the eligibility requirements for being President. So he’s not eligible to be VP either.
But I recall someone claiming that no such eligibility requirement exists for Speaker of the House, who is in the succession line after the VP.

the legal
hippthesishypothesis is for the house to vote him in as speaker of the house and then the figurehead president and VP resign.If I were a fascist psychopath who had the opportunity to be part of such a scheme, I would 100% promise to step down and then not.
To prevent that, he’d need to replace the secret service with loyal sycophants.
Which could maybe work but even the more loyal bootlicker guys will prefer to be president than not.
They’d have to pause multiple times a day while he had his nap.
