If Trump goes down then Pence takes over. Granted Trump is a monster but he is a self serving monster. Pence actually thinks that God speaks to him in a way that would mean a further roll back of minority rights. Which is the least worst option? And there is no other option - until 2020 this is it, so please do not pass (unless you REALLY have to and then explain why!)

(43,173 posts)Both could kill you, but one will kill you faster than the other.
Treat the immediate danger (i.e. the blunt force trauma) first, and once that is stabilized, you can get back to treating the long term problem (i.e. the cancer).
Impeach and remove Trump first, then let Pence deal with the fallout of being associated with traitor who he'll either have to pardon or likely see stand criminal trial. He won't survive 2020. He might not even run.
First, it is an almost unanswerable question. They are both so horrible that it like being asked if you'd rather be hit head-on by a tractor trailer rig or a locomotive. You won't survive either, so does the delivery mechanism really matter?

(63,221 posts)survive him for much longer. Pence is a disaster, but he's not the megalomaniac that Trump is and he will still play by the rules to a certain extent. Also, he will be easier to get rid of. He doesn't have Trump's following or "charisma" :puke" and the base will not come out to support him unanimously like they have w/ Trump.
I just think he will be much easier to manage and control. I don't think he will accomplish much even if he does become president for a few years.

(9,685 posts)However I think Trump is self serving, it scares me more that a far right religious nut is the President. Cause Trump is a christian the way Judas is, only until it suits him. Trump will dismantle with will until he gets distracted, Pence thinks he is in some kind of holy war. It is a rock and a hard place.....

(2,149 posts)And yes, sometimes I imaging MTV doing a special limited run Celebrity Death Match to dispense with the whole corrupt administration...I digress. Pentz following a ridden-out-on-a-rail-in-disgrace Two Scoops would probably be a severely hobbled Executive, with no claim to mandate and no public support
