Ryan will be THIRD IN LINE OF SUCCESSION.
I am beginning to think that the Republican long-game is to impeach or indict BOTH Trump and Pence so that they can install Ryan as President.

(2,651 posts)Leading would be considered governing. That word, "govern" is not in the republican dictionary.
Even if it was, no republican would understand the meaning of it, nor would they care.

If we're going to let it happen, we can at least call it like it is.
Between voter suppression, illegal voter purges, Comey, and Russia-- Trump is illegitimate. Period!

(111,110 posts)not because he didn't win the popular vote of the nation, but because he did not try to win them after he won on the technicality called the electoral vote.
The fact that he never tried to win over the rest of the voters that did not vote for him means he does not have the consent of the governed.
That means he is not a legitimate President.

And judge the Republicans that protect and cover up for the illegalities?

(9,771 posts)there was that something special about him that made their hatred of him a shade darker.
Drumpf supporters have not a square inch of ground to stand on asking the nation to sit down and shut up about the disturbing questions surrounding the election of this would-be despot.
