So you could deal with Pence's gay therapy?

yeah, Pence has a thing against the gays, but they can still be defended with gay marriage bills, discrimination laws and protests

but goddamn, Trump is going scorched earth on everyone who's not white and christian, it needs to end
 
If there's any justice the Supreme Court would rule it go to the popular vote winner and deem the election of Trump illegitimate. At this point it is nearly impossible to determine just how infested then GOP is, so it would be irresponsible to give any sitting member of the GOP presidency.

That's an unrealistic scenario, but yes, GOP being supportive, complicit, or ignorant makes the lot of them suspect. P Ryan is pure sewage so best case is to find the least smelly of the dump.
 
Sigh... are we going to do this again? Before this was Obama delays inauguration, electoral college before that. There will be no new elections. But it will give us the opportunity to do massive damage in 2018 and 2020.

We need action. Waiting will just damage the United States into an irreparable state.
 
Has there even been a re-election done in us history ? Is there any law that would allow it ?

PLEASE.

This election was already unprecedented in scope, let us get into re-election territory. WE need it!

Pretty sure re election literally can't happen, there's no law that would allow this

At worst/best we'd get President Ryan which is somehow STILL better than President Trump so fuck it I'll take it
 
Guys, reading the article, i mean, its basically just a summary of all the shit we already knew. Like, we knew the former aides and shit were in contact. I guess this is just a recent kick in the ass to say, 'hey assholes we still remember you were fired for fucking with Russia'.

Anyway, in all honesty this article doesnt do shit. YOU all need to fucking organize massive protests now with sole goal of impeachment. There is no other way. The spin will end this shit it doesnt even matter. What the people need to do is physically get out there now and protest this issue, not a muslim ban, but impeaching this fuck.

Until then, enjoy the dictator.

Post of the year so far.
 
So if this gets Trump impeached, and the rest of his crew thrown out, will it cause irreparable damage to the Republican Party?

Absolutely not, if anything it benefits them because they get to say they had no clue and were being used like everyone else by a madman and his puppet

The worst thing that can happen to the party is dealing with 8 years of this. Either popular support for them will go down with Trump's eventually, or they'll be in a position where after serving his full term they'll have to stick with his insane policies or risk losing their base.
 
Yeah. There's absolutely no protocol for something like that. Would we need new candidates on both sides? Just the republicans with Dems needing to go Hilary again? Who runs the government while this theoretical election is going on? Obama? Would we need to go through another primary season? There's too many issues to handle it this way

Not only is there no protocol, there's no constitutional mechanism. Without an amendment, there is 100% no legal way to even call such an election.

Not everyone in the line of succession would be tainted by this if it exploded. It would likely fall somewhere in that line. Ryan does seem like the likely candidate if somehow Pence got blowback too.
 
Sorry if this is a little off topic, but what did Moby know?

http://new.www.huffingtonpost.com/e...russia-connection_us_58a2265ee4b094a129edf17c

Moby pulled the "Uncle that works at Nintendo" routine stating he was given exclusive hot tips regarding Super Mario 17...errr the Russia/Trump report on a recent DC visit.

Not that any of us actually doubt that there is validity to everything going on, but this story made the rounds recently. Tom Arnold also has apparently been witness to similar stuff(like Trump being recorded calling Obama the N-word...gets us excited but we need the proof).
 
CNN talking about it now. Top of the hour.

Yep, I imagine New Day is going to lead with this tomorrow.

So...who does the WH bring out to deal with this mess in the morning? Kellyanne?

EDIT: welp, I guess they are being proactive with the Fox News appearance lol.
 

I know, that shit was insane. I don't know how the country didn't fall apart and blow up because of that. Especially when Ford pardoned Nixon.

Agnew resigns because he's corrupt as shit, then less than a year later Nixon gets pinched for being totally paranoid and even more corrupt and resigns before he can get impeached and some rando now becomes President.

You'd think after that the Dems would have pushed for a revision to the process of replacing the Pres/VP in extreme circumstances like that.
 
For all those saying.. Oh we would still get Pence.. Yeah that wouldn't matter anymore. It could be a crippled Presidency even with both houses of congress. Public perception of the entire Presidency would be in the toilet, and nothing would happen over the next two years until after the midterms. GOP would get FUCKED in 2018 if Impeachment actually happens, between disillusioned Trump voters and pitchfork wielding Democrats.

Congress right now is holding out hope that all of this will die down, they know that if they have to take action it will be a deathblow to the entire Republican Party.
 
IIRC he did know but was petitioned by McConnell not to talk about it because it could look like he was trying to taint the election, plus Obama figured Hillary would win anyway so why rock the boat.

Had he known Comey wouldn't be as honest I doubt he would have held his tongue.
