    So if he was left out, and Trump (SURPRISE) was ousted from office, Pence is in the free and clear to succeed Trump.


    Yeah, tinfoil hat, and all, but it's a little plausible......
    Wait, wait, Pence is using the script from the movie "My Fellow Americans?"

      Well since you're face to face with Bernie's crotch is probably pretty tough to see anything else. I kid, I kid before you go on a tirade...

      Scoobs is correct. While not specific to Bernie supporters too many people want to hide behind the mantra of "well, I didn't vote for him" while conveniently omitting the fact that if you didn't vote Democratic, either for Prez or down the ballot, you enabled Trump to get elected with your passivity.

        I find it pretty funny that only one of you has the guts to admit to voting for Trump. It's pretty amazing the guy won, when no one actually voted for him, unless you would have us believe that Trump just happened to do so much worse among Republican college hockey fans vs other Republicans.
        I would say that Trump did do worse among the type of Republican voter who would be a college hockey fan mostly because they tend to be college educated and thus have some critical thinking ability and saw this sh*tshow for what it would become. The problem is those types of voters are a minority in the Republican Party. Trump targeted the demographic that Hillary couldn't identify with and was this unable to reach and that's why she lost Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania by tiny margins.

          I voted for Hillary but my boss voted for Trump, and I knew he was going to, and I didn't murder him so it's MY FAULT!!!! Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

          I love that in one breath you're saying we need to all pull together and then in the next breath you say "not like those {whoever your hissy fit is against today}."

          Move. On. We've got a bigger problem now. Whatever Hillary's merits, she's done. There is no longer any reason at all for you to snipe other than your wounded ego still recovering from the embarrassment of lecturing all of us for months about Her Inevitability only to fall flat on your face on 11-8.

                  He promoted complacency and that cause the liberal wing of the nation to stay home, secure in their knowledge that Trump would go down with bawling and then with a murmuring whimper used to blame everyone around him.

                      The GOP is responsible for Trump being nominated, but to pretend the Libs arent at least in part responsible for his being elected and for the current disgusting level of hatred amongst the parties is Fox News level echo chamber BS.
                      Agreed. Libs are responsible in that they didn't vote.

                      Pennsylvania:
                      2008 - 3.27 million to 2.66 million
                      2012 - 2.99 million to 2.68 million
                      2016 - 2.93 million to 2.97 million

                      Wisconsin:
                      2008 - 1.68 million to 1.26 million
                      2012 - 1.62 million to 1.41 million
                      2016 - 1.38 million to 1.40 million

                      Michigan:
                      2008 - 2.87 million to 2.05 million
                      2012 - 2.56 million to 2.12 million
                      2016 - 2.27 million to 2.28 million

                      Minnesota:
                      2008 - 1.57 million to 1.28 million
                      2012 - 1.55 million to 1.32 million
                      2016 - 1.36 million to 1.32 million

                      Iowa:
                      2008 - 0.83 million to 0.68 million
                      2012 - 0.82 million to 0.73 million
                      2016 - 0.65 million to 0.80 million

                      Ohio:
                      2008 - 2.94 million to 2.68 million
                      2012 - 2.83 million to 2.66 million
                      2016 - 2.39 million to 2.84 million

                      I see a trend there. Not much uptick in GOP votes in the battleground states but a massive dropoff in votes for the Democrats.

                      The big exception is Florida.
                      Florida:
                      2008 - 4.28 million to 4.04 million
                      2012 - 4.24 million to 4.16 million
                      2016 - 4.50 million to 4.62 million

                        It's running on every outlet so it's not "fake." It may just be one of those internal memos that gets leaked when the admin at the mimeograph machine says, "Ha! Not on my watch. Hello? New York Times?"

                        Admittedly, it's a fun way to transfer to cost of Trump's Gestapo raids to the states, though.

                            I keeed -- that's actually a big leap. Well done. The biggest step I ever took across the aisle was Bill Weld, which is hardly even a hop (and John Silber was a true as-shole), though I voted for dozens of Libertarians before I grew up.
                            I actually don't think it's that big of a leap. The only reason you think it's a leap is because a lot of people on here have preconceived notions about me, and others, based upon posts (and your interpretation of those posts).

                            My election choices are almost always driven by two factors, at least on a statewide or federal level. The first factor is whether I think I like the person, admittedly with zero personal interaction with any of them. Would I feel comfortable if they showed up at my home and wanted to sit around shooting the breeze. Do they appear level-headed to me, or are they strident about everything?

                            The second is, are they the incumbent, and have they done anything during their prior term(s) that really disqualifies them. I think experience counts in your ability to perform the job, and with things like Senate seats, can be really important in terms of power. I'm sure it'll shock people here, but the last incumbent Presidential candidate that I did not vote for was Jimmy Carter. I think switching Presidents every four years is like switching coaches every two years. It just doesn't lead to success.

                            I just think that as a President, regardless of your party, you need to be given a chance to get your full plan implemented. We'll let history judge your performance.

                            I fear, by the way, my streak is about to be broken.
                            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                              But truly, with this gang that couldn't shoot straight, it's probably just more incompetence.

                                2012 - 2.83 million to 2.66 million
                                2016 - 2.39 million to 2.84 million

                                I see a trend there. Not much uptick in GOP votes in the battleground states but a massive dropoff in votes for the Democrats.

                                The big exception is Florida.
                                Florida:
                                2008 - 4.28 million to 4.04 million
                                2012 - 4.24 million to 4.16 million
                                2016 - 4.50 million to 4.62 million
                                Yes, 2000, 2004, and 2016 the Dems didn't fall in love. So, they stayed home.
