          1. I'm gonna do a thread on US politics, I'm sorry. tl;dr: blame the Republicans, not Trump personally.

          The question has come up a few times, especially before inauguration : is impeaching Trump a good idea, if we just get Pence in return?

        This brings up a plausible theory for the Republican party's plan:let Trump trash things, pass the most outrageous stuff (that they suggest)

      Then, when he steps over some invisible line... they impeach him for many of the good reasons he could be impeached.

    And then we get President Pence, who can roll a little bit of it back, seem ever so normal in comparison - and still really evil.

      (Like... Pence seems much less fascist than Trump. So it's probably still good if he gets in. He's Republican-evil, not Bannon-evil)

        But fuck the Republicans blaming this just on Trump. He was your candidate, you pulled behind him, it's not a surprise he's like this.

          They're supporting him, and they don't get to wash their hands of him. (also their plan is SO incredibly dangerous). country > party

            So: pin this on the Republicans. They can stop him but aren't. This will not magically become all fixed once we do the thing to the bad man.
