With White House staffers being either
fired or quitting, with CEOs of major American manufacturing turning
their backs on the Businessman in Chief and with Trump himself
repeatedly opening his mouth to spout his insane ideas, it seems that
there is now an effort to remove the President from office, in the
name of ability, if not reputation.
However, what everyone is forgetting
about is that this won't necessarily fix the problem. Trump is a
narcissistic bigot, apparently a liar and unlikable, but he's also a
mouthpiece. Because of his volume, at least with Trump you know what
you get. Once the blowhard is exorcised, the White House will place
Pence POTUS and the stream of ludicrous information will stop.
However this doesn't mean that the insanity will stop. Trump and his
gaggle of gargoyles have "drained the swamp" as they set
out to, replacing every chicken in the hen house with a fox. Getting
rid of the King Fox, does not rid us of every other fox, it just
boards up the windows, locks the door and creates an information
vacuum. Evil nutjobs will still be running the country, they'll just
be doing it in secret.
So let's take a look at the Vice
President. Michael Pence is an extreme right wing, Christian
conservative. He wasn't always, he was a democratic Catholic until
the Reagan years, when he was born again, literally, to the dismay of
his family. It has been said that "Pence doesn't just wear his
religion on his sleeve, he's wearing the whole Jesus jersey." So
with ancient legends steering his moral compass, he believes things
like: abortion is murder, gays can be cured, immigrants had better
beware and refugees had better turn around, healthcare is Socialism,
global warming is a myth, drugs, sex and gambling are "bad,"
ignorance is better than knowledge, sheep are better than wolves,
etc. He carries with him the same deck of cards as Trump and his
cronies, he's playing the same game, only Pence has a much more
developed poker face.
If he replaces Donald Trump as
President, the song will remain the same, we just won't get to hear
it anymore. This is scarier than the evil you know.
