(518 posts)84. About "President Pence" . . .
There's been a spate of anti-Pence articles during the last year or so, telling us about Pence's eccentricities and outright rightwing extremism. I suspect this flood of anti-Pence propaganda was not all done by anti-Trump people, but that a good deal of it was worked up and promoted by Trumpettes in an effort to discourage Democrats and progressives from removing the Stable Genius from office. They hope that by convincing us that Pence would be worse than Trump, we will overlook all of Trump's chicanery and keep Pence from filling a vacancy.
Well, I am not sure that Pence is worse than Trump. I'm willing to give him a chance (at least until Election Day).

I don't agree with that. The people are getting that trump is a crook and traitor.

No they are not. The people are getting that Trump has broken the law and is a traitor.

Yep. 24/7 since 2015 actually. We only really started paying attention after November 8, 2016,

I'd say yes. She could have been straight out of central casting for a patriot.

Wrong. Many people are sort of apolitical, & go along to get along w/GOP family, friends, community

Exactly. There's good and bad sampling. Until there's a major poll like Gallup, this is bullshit.

Not trying to be an ass, but I don't think you're right. Trump IS surging in polls.

Example: one month ago Trump was trailing Joe Biden in Wisconsin by ten points in an A-rated poll

Why would you say that? I am a lifelong Democrat and don't plan to change that.

That's all you have been pushing. Trump will not be reelected. We have to get out work and vote
