Related: About this forumIs Mike Pence being set up as the fall guy?
Ive long been interested in theories that Dump will dump Pence in favor of someone like Nikki Haley. A few questions:
Would Haley, or anyone else who fancies a future in national politics hitch their wagon to Trump after what is playing out like his Katrina?
Would Dump be at risk of alienating evangelical voters by dumping Pence?
I think the selection of Pence was done to insulate Trump as much as possible from whatever fallout comes, and because his handlers know hes just terrible at crisis management. The optics have been grim. But conveniently the choice also serves as a ready made justification for dropping Pence should things continue to progress with the virus.
