The remedy for this COUP isn't Hatch. It's Clinton.

79. What's done is done...

Look at it this way: With HRC in the White House, the Russian influence would never subside, nor would the right wing propaganda network. Further, the RW would still have the presumptive credibility (that they never deserved) to frame the narratives and keep those HRC investigations going. Further still, the Congress would remain GOP, and HRC would be stonewalled just like Obama was stonewalled. HRC's term would be another exercise in stagnant frustration.

Instead, because Trumpy rode in on the Russia money laundering and propaganda wave, we have a GOP much more exposed as cruel, compassionless, and greedy governors. It's potentially far more damaging to the GOP that they WON. My God, there is no greater gift for Dems in the 2018 elections than Trumpy and his circus full of devious clowns, careening from one impeachable and prosecutable disaster to the next.

There WILL be arrests and trials. There WILL be a process by which the GOP will clean house-- and it won't be by their own volition. And there just might be a new president: Orin Hatch. He's by far not close to the best choice. He's a fascist, for sure, but he's got a small sliver of heart and he's getting too old to go ravenous about party politics. Not a bad consequence for a GOP interim president.
