7. What's the deal with recent PUB Presidents not wanting to BE president? Shrub turned

all the decision making over to Cheney, now the Con is turning over the decision making to Bannon? Why do they bother to run?

8. And we thought it would be Pence

They faked us out again

[JudyM]

12. If this were chess we would be pinned... get rid of tRump and you get Pence.

Pence might well have a lesser cabinet full of ogres, but who knows?

10. tRUMP is

....overwhelmed. He knows it. Lost without Bannon and Ivanka.

11. Just WAIT until Trump reads the NYT. Shit is gonna hit the fan.

[ecstatic]

13. Yeah, for 2 seconds but Bannon will rein him in fairly quickly.

Trump is easily manipulated due to his personality disorder. SMH
