If Trump goes...

…One must wonder if Pence and his ilk get their way and get their hands on the power of the Presidency what they would like the punishment to be for those who do not dance to their far-right evangelical tune? Theocracies are scary places for anyone who does not toe the religious right line of choice and I think we can all agree that these dominionists have had a long-term strategy to turn America into a ‘Christian’ State…

Potential Rock and Hard Place Comes to Mind…

Heh.

If for some reason he escapes going down with the Trumptanic (I don't know how--he's in this Ukraine thing up to his eyeballs), he won't be around all that long. He's an absolutely TERRIBLE candidate/campaigner and will get slaughtered by whoever our nominee is. So the worst case scenario is that Pence is only around another year.

And if we manage to oust Trump, I don't see how Pence escapes the noose either. I'd open an impeachment inquiry on him seconds after he takes the oath of office.
