10. Trump needs to resign...

Tue Feb 14, 2017, 11:57 AM

Feb 2017

Then Pence selects a Vice President, I think someone from the senate (McCain or Graham because they've been pursuing the Russia connection) then when Pence resigns, the new Vice President takes over for the remaining year or so of the term. In 2018 the democrats control congress and in 2020 the democrats win back the White House.

That's how I see it unfolding. In fact, Ryan doesn't win reelection in 2018, so he becomes as obscure a political figure as Santorum.

Yes. You may want to review the Constitutional definition. n/t PoliticAverse Feb 2017 #9

You can't say that Trump and Co. have not been adhering to our enemies nor giving them aid. nt JTFrog Feb 2017 #20
