Trump/future tense

Here's the premise:

Most mainstream republicans cannot stomach the guy..

They DO like Pence

Soooooooo

They give Trumpster plenty of rope and then they impeach him....say , around mid 2018

THEY gain "credibility" for righting a wrong..

Pence becomes president, and appoints Nikki Haley as vice president..

He gets re-elected in 2020, and by 2024, SHE is ready to go for the gold with....

let's say Tim Scott (their pet black man) as her veep..

A republican woman (non white) running with a southern black man...pure catnip...

to them. So if they decide to declare Scott a black man for electoral purposes, the next sound you hear will be millions of 'wingers patting themselves on the back for being so totally not racist...

So Tim Scott couldn't be Nikki Haley's VP. Anyhow, the voters who elected Trump will always be too racist and sexist to vote for a non-white woman.

That possibility seems very real. The only thing that's kept me going is the thought that this calamity is temporary.

I also Believe they are setting Trump up.
If they do it right they can get some of his crazies tied up in the scandal.

Their Boy Pence set in as President, But Scott Walker gets VP spot.
He is the Koch Brother's chosen one!
