If Joe goes first then Kamaltoe becomes President and nominates a VP.
If Kameltoe goes first, then Joe nominates a new VP

It will only get to the speaker if they both croak or resign at the exact same time.

This. And I have little faith a Republican majority in the Senate would refuse to approve the nominee even after the election. Republicans are spineless appeasers for the most part.
The Republicans appear that way, by design, but in reality they are just a different cheek of the same ass, lovingly known as THE UNIPARTY

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
