We need three clocks to hit midnight at nearly the same time: Trump, Pence, Ryan.

[LS_Editor]

And by that I mean there needs to be enough evidence regarding Russian meddling in American politics against all three so they are impeached and/or resign all in a very short period of time. A President Pence or President Ryan are also disasters, albeit of different types. Hatch may be less so.

1. Fine. Just make sure someone takes McConnell, too.

[furtheradu]

3. HA! Stop readin' my mind!

[dchill]

8. For my money. McConnell is the brains behind...

RussiaGate. Ryan to a slightly lesser degree. They were ready to steal the election (again) regardless of who their candidate turned out to be. Just Kismet that Trumpsky had his own deal with Vlad the Impaler.

[furtheradu]

10. Hmmm..I KNOW he's in it up to his waddles..

never thought he was a mastermind of any dang thing, though.
Interestin.. I'm gonna percolate on that!

[dchill]

11. How did he know, over a year ago, that...

he'd get to nominate a USSC Justice? He must have been pretty darn sure how things were going to go. Nobody else would have taken a bet against HRC.

[furtheradu]

15. EXCELLENT point.. he KNEW, a year ago..

& I've believed that since election day.

That doesn't necessarily mean HE masterminded this whole mess..

maybe just had big ass confidence in THE mastermind.. hmmmm!?!

*percolatin'*

[LS_Editor]

13. Agreed. He is definitely a Russian asset flush with Russian money.

As well as Saudi money, Chinese money, etc.

[dchill]

14. He's an "Everyone but Us" asset.

Follow the money? He already did!

[rock]

2. True

We don't want any of these to become president as their first act would be to pardon the others.

[BigmanPigman]

4. You mean three hit men with quick get away cars.

[yardwork]

5. Ideally, this would happen after the Democrats regain the House.

The president would be a Democrat.

[lapucelle]

6. Could it be that Nancy Pelosi

will be our first woman president?

[dchill]

9. I'm just not sure that civilization has that kind of time.

SINK.

(Seriously, I'm Not Kidding.)

[femmocrat]

7. Kind of like in Back to the Future!

Here's what I have proposed: Pence goes first (like Agnew did), while trump is embroiled in the impeachment process. Just to be ornery, (because he's mad at the GOP) trump names Hillary as the new VP (replacing Pence). Trump then pulls a Nixon and resigns, and Hillary becomes our rightful president! Happy Days are Here Again!

F*ck Ryan and Hatch.

[luvallpeeps]

12. flux capacitor?

Hope springs eternal.

[BzaDem]

16. House Republicans would pick another speaker before Ryan resigned. n/t

[BlueStater]

17. Very unlikely that Trump and Pence could be removed at the same time.

And I wouldn't want that anyway since it would mean that soulless weasel Paul Ryan would become president.

If Trump goes first, Pence will become president. If Pence goes first, Trump will pick his successor who would then be first-in-line to the presidency.
