Why should that make a difference to Trump? (I'm being facetious, as I was above.)

I suppose he could tell Pence he's fired, but Pence wouldn't have any obligation

(115,743 posts)9. I suppose he could tell Pence he's fired, but Pence wouldn't have any obligation
to actually leave (I bet Trump doesn't even know he can't fire Pence). He could even go rogue by campaigning overtly, and Trump couldn't stop him.

What he can do is give him nothing to do, effectively keeping him out of the spotlight.
