I want him out of the office too, but with him there, at least we have the evil out in the open. With Pence, he is a smarter evil. I wish the entire lot of them could be put in prison for being in office illegally.

the president nominates a new VP candidate who must be confirmed by the senate. This is irregardless whether it is the president or VP who has left (see Richard Nixon, Spiro Agnew, Gerald Ford).

...it would be orders of magnitude harder to repeat that feat, no matter how richly his successor deserved it.

It's also worth remembering that if that culling extended as far as the Top 4 - a task beyond Herculean - the line of succession reaches Orrin Hatch. Orrin F'ing Hatch is the one who the free world would have to pin its hopes on???

A politician who would or should make liberals throw up in their mouths a little is who you'd have to HOPE FOR, and a gargantuan long shot, at that?

This is a story by Kafka made into a screenplay by Hunter Thompson and directed by Terry Gilliam. Beyond bizarre.

.... impeaching tRdump brings the more stealth Fascist Christian Dominionist Theocracy. A different kind but equally chaotic so Putin can stand back and giggle his ass off as America's Democracy continues to get rapidly flushed down the toilet.

TRdump is a slow and nauseating sort of mayhem and chaos - Pence in the captains chair would be more rapid and efficient but more quiet sort of mayhem and chaos but his buybull bullshit would gum up Democracy more long term and bring a different kind of systemic damage.

Putin wants a dysfunctional Democracy in both North America and Europe and he is well on his way to reaching that objective in spades.

Then Putin and his Oligarch Syndicate can form a bond and alliance with the powerful American & European Oligarch Syndicates - they can then join together and form a combined International Oligarch Syndicate then proceed to divide up the remaining resources of the world. The New Oligarch Worldwide Order of the Hyper-Powerful -Filthy Rich Few. Putin & tRdump are anointed Vice-Chancellors for life. The world Oligarchs can now proceed to making money hand over fist unimpeded and without restrictions or limitations of any kind or sort.
