Trump already got them what they wanted. He went too far for any of them with his immigration actions and the kids in cages, missing kids, etc.
Romney getting ready to run once Trump out of the way. They will run on economy and we will lose.
You heard it here first.

So who is his running mate? Maybe they do need Karen Pence.

(6,414 posts)Republicans in the Senate wont vote to impeach Trump and Pence if it means President Pelosi. But maybe some kind of deal could be reached involving impeaching a Trump and having someone serve as President until the next election. Condition: They would be a placeholder and not allowed to run in 2020.
I have no idea who such a person would/could be, but I think there are more Republicans willing to get rid of Trump than are letting on. We need to cultivate that somehow.

(5,491 posts)Maybe Trump resigns. Pence takes his place. An agreed upon VP is confirmed. And then Pence resigns. It could all happen in a matter of minutes.

(6,712 posts)Trump out. Pence appoints and the Senate confirms a new VP.
Then if Pence is given the heave-ho after that.
That new VP becomes president.
Only way Nancy becomes president is if Trump and Pence are sent packing at the same time.
However after the impeachment of Trump the Congress could appoint Hillary Speaker of the House, then impeach Pence and then Hillary becomes President. Just sayin'.

(8,885 posts)I don't see any Republicans turning on Trump over his immigration actions. MAGAts love his immigration actions. Many of them consider his immigration actions orgasmic.

(32,328 posts)I don't believe he'd be stupid enough to run and lose twice. He'd be all out of chances because there wouldn't be a third try for him.
Whoever runs as a presidential candidate for the GOP will LOSE, that's a given.
