I don't think so. There are constitutional impediments to that and Pence doesn't have any kind of connection to the crazies that Trump does. I think he would be utterly ineffectual.
That said, I am still utterly stunned that the fucking IDIOTS in this country were SO FUCKING STUPID as to elect an amoral, ignorant clown as President. I'm in utter amazement that a device as absurdly stupid as the leaf blower managed to become a mass-produced item that people accept as part of our world. So maybe I'm not so good for predicting reality.

Jesus's delicate rectum will start to heal from all the abuse inflicted upon it by the Trumpified evangelicals and fundamentalists.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I was just telling a friend a few days ago that I can't believe Trump is still president. And, you know, it's been 3 years since he announced his bid for the presidency. Three years of this grifting clown having a national platform for his craziness.
Is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Who knows. If there is a light, it could also be a train coming.

We can only hope that this is an anomaly. It is still very depressing to think that people in a supposedly educated society could be so incredibly ignorant. It blows a hole in my (admitted) faith in the principles of Secular Humanism. I thought we were better than this. Obviously, I was wrong.
Maybe I should better describe myself as a Trans-Humanist. This is the belief that the better of us humans will direct our own evolution through technology. We will better ourselves because obviously, we need bettering. A society that elects Trump as anything more than a Mosquito-control officer is obviously on the wrong path. We need to better ourselves or we deserve extinction.

People thought they were rejecting the establishment, but the problem is they elected someone who was only pretending to be anti-establishment. With the disdain for the establishment though, maybe next time they will elect someone who is actually anti-establishment, like Bernie. It's not all bad. The establishment is on their heels and progressives are beating out neo-liberals in smaller elections left and right. Black people finally stood up against one of the biggest supporters of their mass incarceration by refusing to vote for her, and they showed the power that they really have. The anti-establishment movement will be good in the long run. Trump can only cause so much damage in his 8 years.

I blame our crap education system here in the US for not teaching critical thinking skills. Seems like that would go a long way in getting better presidents elected. I watch over what my own 11 year old is being taught and not taught in school. But when the whole system is desperately lacking, Trump is the end result.
