Trump: No Politician in history has been treated WORSE

[IAMX 3,055]

Is there an echo in the house or is someone not able to read?

Pence as President may be preferable to some in only that he would be a more stable presidency which would not rock the boat too much and get through the agenda that the GOP would like to move forward with. He's unlikely to do something so stupid as to cause WWIII, we would unlikely have a daily barrage of ''oh my god what else now?", and he's unlikely to cause some grave major insult. We'd probably get some slight sanity back and sense of normal. So in that, sure, preferable. However we know there are other factors where he would not be preferable (which is the reason some voted for Trump in the first place hoping we'd reach this as a possibility). We do not know if Pence would clean house per say of some troublesome aspects, nor do we know what other agenda he would enact other than what the GOP would put on his desk. That being said the un-preferable reasons may be the most concerning aspects about him. We also don't know in many of these investigations that Pence is also in the clear. There's a lot of unknowns in this game.

 

At this point, any proceedings brought against Trump would to a certain point extend to Pence. Pence was present in many of the meetings, and surely he would be subpoenaed. Also, considering Trump's mental state, he probably would not go down alone or gracefully. The guy is a loose cannon and unstable. I am sure he'd fill cyberspace with his idiotic tweets, as any teenager would.

I'd just enjoy this entertaining fit one step at a time.

So it Trump gets impeached and Pence goes too you end up with Paul Ryan as President?

I actually don't quite think so, especially if at the conclusion of the investigation (regarding Flynn specifically) nothing untoward is discovered regarding Pence. There would be not much for the media to complain about regarding 'corruption' angles per say, but it would more so be a focus on his policies or agendas if he comes up with any that is (this happens with any Presidency vs the media). But we'll see soon enough.

Behind the scenes Paul Ryan is probably praying during his daily work on his six-pack that this will be the case.

That's in the 25th amendment of the Constution:

 

https://www.usconstitution.net/xconst_Am25.html

 

Amendment 25 - Presidential Disability and Succession

 

1. In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.

2. Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

3. Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.

4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

If only the GOP knew that all they needed to do to get one of their own into the Presidency was sit back and let the Washinton Post do the work for them.

We could have another presidential election.....who has the authority to call an election early instead of every four years?

That was the case during Watergate, but with this administration, Trump doesn't need much help. He's digging the hole himself, and of course, his party is sitting back and watching.

I think they are actually kind of counting on that. TBH there has been some buzz behind the scenes about this aspect long ago.
