In the rush and fervor to impeach President Donald Trump, Democrats should look over their collective shoulder. One might reconcile with the devil they know instead of the devil they do not.
What happens if Trump is impeached and removed from office? An even more aggressive conservative is waiting the wings who will make President Trump seem like a panty-waisted beginner. Vice-President Pence will assume office for the remaining term and then elected for a subsequent term. Untold conservatives voted for Trump hoping Mike Pence would eventually take the reins.
America knew Donald Trump. Was there any doubt of his ethics, morals or antics? Still the need to suppress Hillary Clinton was tantamount. And for the same amount of time liberals have attempted to oust President Trump, every conceivable stone seeking documentation of embarrassing acts or traits in the current vice-president have revealed absolutely nothing.
You think Donald Trump’s agenda rubbed liberals the wrong way? Mike Pence is an outspoken believer in the conservative agenda, and unlike his current boss is overwhelmingly familiar with the minutia that goes on inside the beltway. As perfect a lieutenant Pence has been for Donald Trump, given a free hand Mike Pence’s plans will make current political status quo pale in comparison.
As much as Trump wants a wall, Pence wants it more. Immigration restraints? Pence is champing at the bit. America first? Mike Pence is unswervingly dedicated to it being first, last and always. DACA, sanctuary cities, regulation reduction, North Korea, infrastructure, Obamacare, welfare reform, Iran…are all on Mike Pence’s to-do list.
Mike Pence is mistakenly assumed to be a pussy cat because of his soft-spoken manner. But Mr. Pence has a wealth of knowledge, experience and drive Trump could only wish for. He is motivated, hard-nosed and unflinching. He doesn’t lose eye-contact, doesn’t twitter, keeps his eye on the ball and has proven himself in Congress to be a stunning foe. Get him in the Oval Office and Democrats will wish they had never uttered the words impeachment.
Be my guest, impeach Donald Trump. Because if it is your dream to cripple conservative thought by ridding yourselves of the man who beat back Hillary Clinton, conservatives and Republicans will become galvanized under Mike Pence with a strength you cannot imagine. Then the odds of Mike Pence being elected to a subsequent elected term are very good, because he will be the devil we know.
Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.

Everyone’s too busy celebrating...(McTurd)
Impeach Trump for nothing and the next Dem President guess what ,LOL
Lots of thoughts.
But my only comment would be that I trust Mike Pence. I frankly don’t believe there will even be an attempt at impeachment but if Pence ever becomes POTUS I would trust his judgment and his faith in God.
I’m doing work on a total lib couple’s pc. the libs sure can blow up their computers with spyware, etc. Probably the same way Podesta got hacked.
Man they are going nuts! The woman was out registering voters (she’s the prez of the league of women voters) and they routinely visit CA (we are in upstate NY)
There’s a website “need to impeach” that they are trumping (pun intended) up on XM radio as well. I’m dragging my feet fixing it. It’s fixed now and the emails came flooding in from the daiy KOS, fight against Kavanaugh, etc. I have to hand it to the left in that they get totally involved, circle the wagons and fight (GASP) dirty (yes it’s needed now to fight fire and fire IMHO)
Too bad the pubbies and conservatives don’t band together like that!
They used to have a framed photo of the Obozo family in their kitchen (this family is lily white) and now they have a framed photo of the swimmer from back in the sixties. (barf)
In before the coastal, closet, foreign culture lefties who hate Pence.
The "Untold" number who really wanted Pence is about 6, but I agree that they'd better be careful what they ask for. If they get rid of Trump on some bullshit charge and Mrs. Bill Clinton is still walking around free, look out!
2024 maybe?
It takes two-thirds of the Senate to convict Trump and remove him from office. It is not going to happen. The votes aren’t there unless the GOP elects to commit political suicide.
Pence is not Trump. He can be manipulated and backed down.
You don’t want him as POTUS.
The millions who voted for President Trump will not sit idly by while they try to impeach The Boss. No way. Everyone I talk to is really pissed over the 24/7 BS.
Could you give us an example or examples of Pence being manipulated or backing down?
Here in Indiana he was making a bold move and was going to sign a religious freedom law. He lacked the courage to follow through.
RINOs kind of liked him too.
Pence reeks of establishment.
No faction hates Pence more than the homo faction. Pence didn’t back down. The other politicians did.

“After Pence signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, he encountered fierce resistance from moderate members of his party, the business community, and LGBT advocates. The backlash against the RFRA led Pence to amend the bill to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and other criteria.”
In 2000, Pence stated "Congress should oppose any effort to recognize homosexual's [sic][28] as a 'discreet [sic] and insular minority' entitled to the protection of anti-discrimination laws similar to those extended to women and ethnic minorities." He called for "an audit to ensure that federal dollars were no longer being given to organizations that celebrate and encourage the types of behaviors that facilitate the spreading of the HIV virus".[29][30][31] He commented that homosexuals should not serve in the military, stating "Homosexuality is incompatible with military service because the presence of homosexuals in the ranks weakens unit cohesion" and in 2010 stated that repealing Don't ask, don't tell would "have an impact on unit cohesion."[32] Pence opposed the 2009 Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Act stating that Obama would "advance a radical social agenda"[33] and said that pastors "could be charged or be subject to intimidation for simply expressing a Biblical worldview on the issue of homosexual behavior."[34]
I hope that Rip Van is starting to understand that he needs to make up for all the time that he caused to be wasted, join the fight and start taking action. The hellfires have already singed the edges of his reputation and the center is about to explode in combustion. Clock is ticking, Jeff.
Have they thought this through? Do they want President Pence?
They aren’t as smart as their political forebears, who took the time to get Vice President Agnew out before driving out Nixon. They knew Ford was malleable.
Interesting. Getting rid of Trump could be more like Pearl Harbor. It might just further awaken a sleeping / dozing giant.
I’d rather keep Trump for 6 more years and have Pence for 8 more after that though. Never in my life though have we had a four term run of consistent policy and political principles though. Not since the exception of Roosevelt then Truman.
I will consider any attack on Trump with these made up phony charges an attack on me, my vote, my liberty, what is left of rule-of-law and the Constitution. If the dimwits want open war they will get it. We have been princely up until now.
