A Pence takeover of Trump, or a HRC takeover of Pence? Edited March 14, 2017 by GG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 A Pence takeover of Trump, or a HRC takeover of Pence? I read as: 1) Trump impeached/quits 2) Pence takes over 3) Clinton thinks she can beat Pence in 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meazza Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 He has a well earned reputation as being tough to work with. Though, having worked on a show he famously snubbed, my bias may be showing. Criminal Minds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts, in order: 1) I can't believe I'm living in a country that would stage a coup against the elected President. 2) Wait...that's not right, I don't know this is happening, this is just Assmange's tweets. 3) I can't believe I live in a country where Assmange claiming a coup against the elected President is in progress is that credible. 4) I hope we find out Al Franken's behind all of this, just so I can make "Deep State by Stuart Smalley" jokes.

GoBills808 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 DR forgive me for needing a primer here...but how much of these issues could simply be chalked up to the vestiges of a recalcitrant administration prior and a politically wet behind the ears incoming administration, as opposed to a much deeper power struggle as has been outlined here?

Some of the current strife can be attributed to that, certainly. This thread is speculative in nature, so within it I'm steering into the skid for a lack of a better phrase. The most recent news (tit-for-tat leaks) seems to be focused far more on JSOC vs the CIA than it does 44's outgoing administration vs 45's.

DC Tom Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Nor should you. Well...you did put it in the Deep State War thread. And he is/was a Rockefeller, and inheritor of the Standard Oil legacy.

They were like the Seal Team Six for the Romans. Greggy dresses up like them sometimes so he gets mad when they die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
