And just, like, starts relieving himself in the face of reporters while on camera? I mean, everything just bounces off of him, why not just take the ol' leash off of the id altogether?

He's every bit as stupid as Trump

oh, come on

inviting some competitors to your office and letting them sit at your unlocked computer while you drop a deuce.

Pence is def stupid, but he doesn't have the other fatal flaws that Trump does - the unpredictability, general ignorance of how govt works, wildly inconsistent positions, etc. Odds are he would be a more effective/malleable legislator that wouldn't throw up random roadblocks and crises in congress' way, allowing for the implementation of broader swathes of the GOP agenda. Dumb as he may be, he signed bills into law as governor, he is at least familiar with that process.

thing is, if trump actually resigned or was impeached, it would (or should) be an albatross around the neck of every republican that supported him

wouldn't put it past the dems to still fuck up an opportunity like that, but the deck would be stacked against the GOP in 2018

Trump will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever resign. He will need to be removed bodily if it ever comes down to it. Not because he wants the job but because he so clearly deserves the job, because he is so clearly the best for the job, because he is not done winning, for god's sake.

xpost And also because some part of him realizes that, at this point, the (ever-declining) prestige of the presidency is the only thing that will prevent a huge portion of the world from treating him like the human garbage he so clearly is.

pretty sure this all ends with Trump drawing the electoral map on the walls of his cell with his own feces

I know T.'s not a smart or plan-making or calculating person, but every time he does some random macho stupid jingo shit, two things happen:

1. The media and professional classes gasp, scratch their heads, and clutch their collective pearls and say THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

2. A jillion redhatters cream in their pants and howl for more, because NOT NORMAL is exactly what they were voting for. Trumpism is Brawndo and it's what they crave.

He's no genius but we know he loves both of those results, so he keeps doing the behavior that delivers them. He's pretty easily understood to be a lab rat pushing the bar that releases the crack-pellet.

Pence insisting nobody leave him alone with red sweater lady

I was going to make fun of how strange and unprepared to be photographed she appears to be, but then I thought what if she's a cancer patient and she's been deathly ill, and as a result of her illness she lost her job and had to move into a cheaper place and all her clothes have been in boxes until this morning and that's why they obviously don't fit her and are so wrinkled. And I felt almost bad for a brief fraction of a second. I'm over it though.

She's probably like some famous pro-life evangelical figurehead in which case nothing I could make up would be bad enough.

"You know the catapult is quite important. So I said what is this? Sir, this is our digital catapult system. He said well, we’re going to this because we wanted to keep up with modern (technology). I said you don’t use steam anymore for catapult? No sir. I said, "Ah, how is it working?" "Sir, not good. Not good. Doesn’t have the power. You know the steam is just brutal. You see that sucker going and steam’s going all over the place, there’s planes thrown in the air."

“I don’t watch CNN. I don’t watch MSNBC. Scarborough used to treat me great. But because I don’t do interviews and stuff and want to … He went the other way. Which is fine. He’s got some problems. But I don’t watch the show anymore. It drives him crazy. I don’t watch the show. I do watch Fox in the morning, and their ratings have gone through the roof because everyone knows I’m watching Fox. But they’re pleasant. And if I do something wrong they report on it. I don’t mean they – if I do something wrong. But it’s really, honestly it’s the most accurate.

“CNN in the morning, Chris Cuomo, he’s sitting there like a chained lunatic. He’s like a boiler ready to explode, the level of hatred. And the entire, you know the entire CNN platform is that way. This Don Lemon who’s perhaps the dumbest person in broadcasting, Don Lemon at night it’s like – sometimes they’ll have a guest who by mistake will say something good. And they’ll start screaming, we’re going to commercial. They cut him off. Remember?

“I’ve seen things where by mistake somebody they bring in a guest and it turns out to be a positive. And they go, I mean they get just killed. The level of hatred. And poor Jeffrey Lord. I love Jeffrey Lord. But sometimes he’s sitting there with eight unknown killers that nobody ever heard of. And CNN actually is not doing nearly as well as others. They’re all doing well because of me. But it’s not doing as well as others that are doing better actually. But Fox treats me very fairly. MSNBC is ridiculous. It’s just bad.

“It’s an ability I never thought I’d have. I never thought I’d have the ability to say, they’re doing a big story on me on CNN and I won’t watch it. And it’s amazing, it doesn’t matter. But it really, the equilibrium is much better. As far as newspapers and things, I glance at them. They’re really dishonest. I mean they’re really dishonest.”
