Pence is unfit for any office, let alone #2

It's a cabal of criminals. Only a few are resigning, but it's only a matter of time

between parties to remove Trump in the nation's best interests unlikely. My auto-take anyway.

Given Pence's complicity in the crimes Trump would be removed for, even if McConnell were willing, how could Democrats agree to allow him to fulfill Trump's last year? And would anything short of dire scandal threatening McConnell himself cause him to agree to a President Pelosi?

it will probably be only a few months left of Trump's term. Timing is everything, and right now Pelosi is in 100% control of the timing.

Although our Dem leaders are saying they'd like to submit to the senate this year so what our candidates offer can be the focus in 2020. Whatever, they have plans.

as one of Stephanie Miller's mooks says.

Since there is no color whatsoever in his outward persona.

I'll bet $1,000 that his insides are shit-colored.

Probably will use him up and throw him out, if the pattern holds.

He is colorless on the outside.

A smart mob boss would have his second in command be squeeky clean for the sake of 'the family' surviving. But then Trump never did care about the Republican family or any family, only himself.

But Pence, or his advisors, should have insisted he remain at arms length to the President and his actions.

But I also think Pence is a weakling. Between 'mother' and his daddy Donnie, he's thoroughly a kept man. I'm sure he was picked because of his docility. And Trump is a predator. He has no loyalty to Pence either. He uses people and throws them away. So Pence would have perhaps had in mind to keep a distance, but, as a weakling, he couldn't withstand the constant pressure from his boss to help him hold power. I've never seen a man with such a guilty expression permanently pasted onto his face.

The republicans are the party of cheating, lying, political dishonesty, and should never again be entrusted by the American people with any claim to governance. The republican party should forevermore be considered dead.

AND Trump, and remove them.

Action he should have considered in his article. The alternatives are not simply to leave Trump in office, or to have to accept a “dirtied” Pence.

I guess, but he's conservative, and pointing out Pence's betrayal of his duty to be an honorable successor is worth an article on its own even to me, so no doubt especially to conservatives.

Especially millions of worried conservatives who must have comforted themselves that at least they had Pence if everything went bad.

I believe he was Vice President when Watergate began? I think Ford was brought in for one reason only; to grant Nixon a pardon as soon as he resigned.

..when Nixon was gotten rid of. And Ford had to be clean (he was). First things first. However the pardon of Nixon came about, both Agnew and Nixon had to go first.

That was my point; Ford was the “clean” vp because they needed to get rid of Agnew and pardon Nixon. So, by the op article mentioned, Pence has to go and be replaced by a “clean” vp, but unfortunately (for tRump), he has so many crimes on record that no amount of pardons is going to get him off the hook...

They might calculate that the evangelical community would be as solid for Mr. My Religion Beats Your Rights as the racists, gun nuts, and other haters have been for trump.

And he has that nice clean white facade of “America’s Heartland’.” And he’s probably not inclined to stink up the joint in real time and try to dominate all the headlines. He doesn’t strike me as an attention whore like trump is. He’s a phony-baloney holier-than-thou. Who doesn’t practice what he tries to jam down the throats of the rest of us. He’d be the fundamentalists’ dream candidate. They’d have his back like crazy.

Trump be removed from office.
