I pretty much have no opinion of him one way or the other. Thats probably a good thing.Quote:

I'll give him that.
I hope Pence retires from any and all spotlight. He seems like a very nice decent man. Far too good to be a politician.

I'm on the Trey Train
I think Trump is setting up Ivanka for a run in 2024.
Since election they have been continuing to receive Donations and not really spending much. Word is whichever Trump runs, they will stard with about $150MM in the bank.
Wouldn't it be a coup (pun intended) if a Trump is the very first Female POTUS and not a Dem and the NOW group?
She will start with about 40MM voters already in her back pocket.
I’ve heard Ivanka is running for Marco’s seat in FL.
Puma, I had not heard that. That would surprise me. After the primaries I think Marco for the most part was in line with Trump voting wise. They were not friends so I suppose that could be the driver.Quote:

One thing’s for sure, it won’t be any of the Trump’s. They totally screwed the pooch Wednesday on any chance they had in ‘24.
We may be one step closer to a President Pence this week.
The one thing that should be surprising is the lack of condemnation and the continued support of Trump as it relates to how he treated Pence during all of this.
Let's recap...
Trump repeatedly pressed Pence to override his constitutional duties and ignore the will of the people to attempt to have the two of them remain in office.
And, since Pence, rightfully performed his Constitutional duties, Trump began to trash Pence
Trump and his inner circle mocked Pence during the Call to Action to storm the Capitol
MAGAt's chanted 'Let's Hang Pence' and other violent chants and had violent intentions, all while Trump and his inner circle celebrated and danced while terrorists stormed the capitol
Trump STILL has not contacted Pence to ask about his well-being, or anything else for that matter.
Now, Pence is possibly considering using the 25th ammendment.
I'm not sure if Pence is in mourning or is just a coward, but he has to realize that Trump doesn't give one crap about him and his well-being.
I know there are people on this board that prefer Pence to Trump, but the silence, lack of support for him, and basically giving Trump a pass for celebrating the attempt on his life is a real head-scratcher.
I personally think we should wait this out. Stop bringing attention to anything. What do we have like 10 days? Throw Trump out and we will just get more chaos.Quote:

Well, that is Pence's call at this point.Quote:

As far as chaos goes, there is nothing that can happen now that will stoke the chaos. That genie is out of the bottle. FBI documents obtained by CNN today is that there are armed attacks for all 50 state capitols and DC in the works in the days leading up to the inauguration. What MORE chaos would removing him from office lead to if indeed these reports are accurate?
Simple, it hasn't happened yet. Removing him IMO makes it more likely to happen. Hope I am wrong. But to me initiating a response is not worth the trigger to make it happen.Quote:
