Pence and the republican party that is.

Figured it out yet?
The vice-presidency will remain vacant!

Actually I think it would be Nikki Haley. She would run with him in 2020 assuming she goes along with it.
Chances are the Republican primary would be open as well. Pence would not be viewed as an incumbent. My bet is some combination of Senator Cotton and Amb. Nikki Haley will be the GOP ticket.
