Because I would really like to see him go. Forever.

(42,760 posts)The fantasy that Trump and Pence will be impeached and convicted is just that - a fantasy.
Let's try to win a majority in at least one house of Congress as a start, okay?

Either Pence or Trump will resign and a new Vice President would be chosen.
Unless they both die or resign at the same time, we will have a republican president until at least 2021.

(16,448 posts)But his seat would have to be considered safe at the moment by any objective measure.
As for the other races, I think he loses his speakership. There will be a lot of defeatism about gerrymandering and other issues but it's going to be a winnable fight. They're worried.

(29,707 posts)First State to have the first and best Public Radio station, the first State to give workers compensation benefits and unemployment benefits, oh yah, it's now a skeleton of what it once was. I cry for my birth State. They have Wanker, Ryan and Prebius.

I hate these SOB's.

Blanks
(4,835 posts)In 2010, a lot of democrats who were safe went the way of the dinosaur.
I don't think Ryan is as safe as a lot of folks seem to think. He went home to campaign in his district in 2012.
The more Ryan is out in the public eye, the more he looks like a moron.
I think he'll lose in 2018.

(11,576 posts)As awful as Ryan is, if he were replaced at this point in time, the Republicans would just find another hideous deplorable to replace him. Unfortunately, there's no shortage of them.
