The speed is really picking up. I think (hope) that we will see another big development this week. He is clearly up for a war with NK.

With the Tax Plan going through, what is the likelihood of McConnall and Ryan flipping and finally looking to impeach Trump once he has signed the legislation? Seems Pence could be implicated in the Russia thing, whatever it may turn out to be meaning Ryan is the king in waiting.

not sure. i imagine they are going to do a shit tun of polling to see just how angry/aware people actually are about the tax bill before making a party wide decision. the midterms would be the time to really start fleeing from donald, but there have been other obvious moments to do so, all of which have been passed over. even if the repubs distance themselves from trump, they seem to still be embracing his mo of "yee haw, fucking blacks and mexicans! real mericans are white, male, and 40!" the fact that the repubs in congress started off condemning roy moore but have since unanimously softened to "let the people of alabama decide" is scary as fuck, and really shows their battle stance.

I am wondering if the 'pubs are keepign quiet and waiting to see the outcome of this.
If Don and Pence get implicated then the next person in line for the Presidency is Paul Ryan...

posted this on the "other" board in response to zack talking about kushner turning on trump ...
that would be fantastic, but i just don't believe anyone will be held accountable to any reasonable standard. it's just not how the machine works. at best, trump gets tossed out of office and pence takes over, which may be a substantially worse outcome for the democrats, especially if it happens before the mid-terms.

Pence is a puppet for the Koch brothers - potentially even worse for the country (and world) than Trump imo.

yeah, that's the problem. the republicans would actually work with pence and get shit done. if trump is still around next november, i have trouble imagining anything but democratic sweep. if he's not, people may not see it as the massive problem it still is and forget to vote.

Pence is a puppet for the Koch brothers - potentially even worse for the country (and world) than Trump imo. no doubt. that's why the midterms are so so so important. even if pence is potus by the time midterms roll around, the work is still in front of us. from a practical point of view it allows all of the legislative horror to come to a halt. and if you are someone, like me, that thinks the dems need to sink to the repubs' level, politically, you can start investigating pence (assuming that is not already underway) even if the party knows it's total bullshit. fucking his presidency up has to be the number one issue. regardless the of the trump investigation, i am extremely interested in seeing the look of the democratic party post 2018 midterms. i don't trust house leadership to properly access the landscape. princess nancy is a shit cunt, and will never, willingly, allows people like randy brice, a fucking union worker, into the house. that has has has to change.

LOL @ the Jerusalem announcement.
"It's in the US best interests"
No it's not - it's in the fucking batshit crazy Netanyahu's interests but no one else in the world.
And to think he said he was going to create peace in the middle east. The Iranians will be rubbing their hands together over this.
