If tRump resigns, we get Pence? So, will Joe be No. 47 then?

Head spinning now regarding Pardons and Bribery...Pence could become 46 right and pardon tRump????

Then, will we find that pence was the "Bag Man" or something along those lines and not get Pence?

I could tolerate Pence for a month. Much as I dislike him, it wouldn't be chaos all the time.

Just consider what you or any other rational person would do and assume Trump has already done the exact opposite.

I'm am somewhat amused at folks who say he might sell out US gov't secrets after leaving office! Really, which ones are left? I've no doubt Putin has all the key info he wants and/or needs from Trump already.
