tl;dr I predict the impeachment of Trump within the first two years - and it will be the GOP which Impeaches (House) and Convicts (Senate). Why did the Dem-turned-“GOP” Trump pick a VP with impeccable credentials for the ultra-right wing of the GOP? So they have an anti-abortion, pro-Christian (and will make Christianity mandatory for all who want to live in US) loon as President after disposing of Trump. ---

> [@usedtobe](#): > > Why did the Dem-turned-“GOP” Trump pick a VP with impeccable credentials for the ultra-right wing of the GOP? Almost literally no other GOP pol of any significance would even talk to Trump about running with him. Pence and Christie had no future as governors, and Gingrich little with Fox, so they saw Trump as their only way to stave off oblivion. ---

That’s why – and this is so funny it hurts – the Democratic minority in the Senate will vote against conviction, and keep the damned lunatic in office! ---

> [@Budget\_Player\_Cadet](#): > > Just out of curiosity, what’s your opinion on the kind folks who, back in 1933, voted for a charming young politician by the name of “Adolf Hitler”? I think most of the people who voted for him were kinda terrible people. Extreme example? Sure. But if you voted for Trump, you’re either ignorant or evil. For fuck’s sake, Trump is not Hitler. At most, he’s Kaiser Wilhelm. Bombastic, egotistical, thin-skinned, with delusions of grandeur and a habit of making outrageous threats. Unlike the Kaiser, he’s not a monarch, so he doesn’t have nearly as much power, and he isn’t going to be around nearly as long. I’m NOT saying I’m not concerned by the guy. Or that "we should all come together. But I’m tired of rioting and people running around screaming, “OH NOES, WE IS DOOMED!!!” I just wish everyone would chill for just a bit. ---

Unlike the Kaiser, he’s not a monarch, so he doesn’t have nearly as much power, and he isn’t going to be around nearly as long. Trump doesn’t have to be Hitler to make the people who voted for him dumb or evil. He just has to obviously be the worse choice for anyone who isn’t voting for evil reasons. Which he very obviously is. ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Ah, poor **Reeder**. But he _did_ have a point. No he didn’t. One of his “best” threads, right up there with ThelmaSpew’s dumps, was that Bush II once may have [flipped off the press corps](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=327781)\* Thelma’s are equally stupid. And the worst part? She’s doing her damnedest to generate ‘outrage fatigue’ so when Trump inevitably _does_ do something horrific, it’ll seem like a case of the girl who cried wolf. She’s as dysfunctional as Reeder was, but somehow seems to be getting away with it for the moment. I look forward to the day when she’s either restricted ala Reeder or banned. \*Note, from Reeder’s own cite, he didn’t flip them off. ---

The country didn’t need saving from Hillary, moron. And yes, it was bad, whether you take offense or not. Couldn’t care less. ---

You know who else is a worthless, ignorant, good-for-nothing piece of scum? Yep, Trump. Seriously, how on Earth can you support that person? Trump is a bigot, a liar, and an incompetent.

There might have been excuses to vote for Trump, but that he was less corrupt or ignorant than Hillary was not among them. If you voted for him on that basis you are a worthless, ignorant, good-for-nothing piece of scum. But we knew that already.
