I labeled the title fantasy because we all know it is. BUT, for the sake of argument let’s look at short term and long term results, should the fantasy come true. Let’s assume the impeachment was successful and the Senate convicted and removed Trump and now 10 days before Thanksgiving, Mike Pence has been sworn in.
Trump has been removed, his base is fired up. Can/Will Trump run again in 2020 anyway? Does the impeachment bring more support for the Democratic candidates? Who’s the best shot to beat Pence if Trump doesn’t or can’t run again. What kind of chaos is going to befall the government with the Republicans trying to pick up the pieces from Trump’s fall? What’s the Dems plan? Will they obstruct, smear, cheat and lie to keep Pence from doing anything or play nice and bide their time till election? Lots of possibilities…
Kinda sounds like Pence’s fantasy. He’s neck deep in this corruption as well. I believe this the reason why Nikki Haley is swallowing her pride and defending trump at all costs so she can get his supporters votes come 2020.
Surely, the Democrats start an impeachment hearing into Pence? My understanding is that if Pence is also removed via an impeachment N Pelosi would be sworn in as President of the USA.
I think Trump should be allowed to run again if he is convicted and removed. He is above the law.
Of course Dems will cheat obstruct, smear, and lie. Maybe they’ll quickly run Hillary to get R’s tingling again.
Haven’t heard much from Pence. How do you figure he’s involved? If he is, he’s still the one that takes Trump’s place and if Trump can’t or doesn’t run, he will pick up Trump’s base. This is still an uphill battle for the Dems.
Pence was unpopular in his own home state, the Veep nod was a saving grace for him.
He is a terrible candidate, a horrible speaker and a pretty weird person. The GOP can do a lot better than him. You have a deep bench, no need for this guy.
