My thoughts exactly. The GOP is never going to impeach a Republican President--no matter what Mueller finds. That Republican President turns into a Democrat--I'd bet the GOP would trample each other in the rush to impeach and put Pence in power.

Would seem like a great idea... But Pence in power could be even worse. If Pence comes into power after Trump has two years in office, America faces the chance Pence serves out Trump's term then gets elected for two more of his own. Tough to choose what is worse for America--four years of Trump or ten years of Pence.

it suddenly occurs to me that thanks to this thread and Twitter, I find out about news stories hours before most news/politics junkies do, and days before much of the population does

one of my co-workers was talking to me this morning and brought up Charlottesville, did I see the pictures and oh my gosh a lady got run over by a car. Did you hear what Trump said about it?

jesus christ karen that was 3 years ago. I thought there maybe was a second racist rally/hit and run that happened in Charlottesville like, 30 minutes prior to the conversation that i hadn't heard about yet. don't gently caress with me like that.

I don't think a President Pence would last long enough to pass or do anything. Another election would probably happen. You would have all the Dems, and all the Trumpers screaming bloody murder and not wanting a single thing to do with Pence. The last of the Republicans would try to keep him around but ultimately agree he wasn't who everyone voted for.

I read the article several times and it's an excellent article that presents a very salient and accurate thesis about the history of white supremacy but it has several weaknesses

eg it ignores that Trump got more votes from nearly all minority groups than Romney did (clarify: I'm talking about the part where he talks about how working-class minorities weren't driven into Trump's arms -- obviously it's because Trump is a racist piss Nazi), attempts to paint Bernie as anti-black when his message was "your leaders need to actually help you, not just look like you" (several paragraphs after talking about how Obama was ineffectual, even), and places Trump's victory entirely and exclusively on him wielding white supremacy without taking in account that Trump barely won by a hair, that no other white man could have done what Trump did and gotten away with it, that misogyny played a huge part in the election, and that the election was influenced by Russia

it's called a grand bargain and the democrats have been lusting for it my entire adult life

Reid and pelosi consistently told obama to gently caress off with that nonsense but obama kept trying to push one out

had the GOP not been so insanely arrogant to thing that Romney could have won and gotten an even grander bargain, it would have passed with obama forcing it over the objections of pelosi and reid
