Pence isn't going to nuke anyone.  And he'd be the weakest President in living memory at that point, anyway.

He literally believes in end days fairy tales.  He's a self-proclaimed rapturist.   Yeah, thanks but no thanks.

US admits killing 200 civilians in Mosul air strike while world focuses on London terror attack

Amid the aftermath of a terrorist attack on the UK's Parliament, which killed four people including a police officer, another mass casualty further afield has been buried in the headlines.

Over the weekend the US Pentagon has admitted to another air strike in Mosul, which is believed to have killed more than 200 civilians including women and children.

It has been described as a "humanitarian disaster" by Iraqi Vice President Osama Nujaifi, and United Nations officials said they were "profoundly concerned" by the attack.

As satisfying as a Trump resignation would be, we would still be left with a Pence presidency.  That shtein is terrifying to me.  I want that religious kook as far away from the launch codes as is humanly possible.  Thanks.

As much as I agree with you, I'd much rather have Pence than Trump. Both are despicable, but Pence is only Hillary level despicable.

[General_Failure]

Hillary is "probably had some people killed over business" despicable. Pence is "wants to electrocute your weird cousin for thinking about men" despicable.

[Tomahawk]

And all, absolutely every last one of them, are "let's bomb them, even if it kills 200 civilians" despicable.

[Eagaholic]

Hillary definitely would. She's one bad hombre.

[ice grillin you]

Hillary is a bad campaigner and was a terrible choice for a candidate this last time around but I don't get why her life's work or her resume is even close to despicable...its in fact pretty damn great

As a daily mantra, I keep running the intel community statement that "he will die in jail" through my head as a way to cope with his being.

Also, can we please for the farging love of god stop referring to Hillary as despicable? She had an entire political party investigating everything she farging did for 30 years and at no point was anything criminal ever found. If you don't like her personality, fine. If you don't like her politics, fine. If you don't like that she's secretive, fine. If you don't like that she capitalized on her political career with lucrative speaking/book deals, fine. If you don't like a political system where we only get Clintons, Bushes and other deeply entrenched career politicians, fine. But no one on earth has been more thoroughly investigated than Hillary and it turned up farging nothing. The election is over, so the damage is done, but continuing to spew this conspiracy theory nonsense about her in the face of all evidence makes everyone look like a farging moron.

yeah, but, but, emails.

Holy shtein...I would have never guessed you guys are so easily trolled, especially in a Hippo thread. You're even more despicable than Hillary.

When everything is a troll, then nothing is.
