What if Trump dies in office?

[Amarok]

On a federal level have seen Pence say or do anything independent of someone telling him to so?. He's a first rate crony. And as president that's the role he'd play. Id be far more concerned with what Bannon would do. But I suspect mainstream republicans will pressure Pence into giving him the axe so he can be there puppet instead. Summed up Trumps Pence's balls without him Pence is just a yes man.

Agreed.

And given that kind of congress, this doesn't give you pause?

Nope because the congress won't know what it wants or what it's doing. They will essentially revert to the Republicans of the Obama years .A squabbling bunch of back biting power mongers who will be to busy playing power games to get much done .Trumps there Batista without him they will revert to the kind of politics Trumps followers are cynical of and they will become disinterested. And next election they will lack anyone to fill Trumps shoes or speak to his base.
