For the love of... Will someone point out to Pence that 1. he's got a deadly target on his back

[hlthe2b]

--thanks to Trump-- that will continue on well past Inauguration Day;

2. As VP he gets only six months of SS protection;

3. As a former President (even for a handful of days), he gets LIFETIME SS protection


If he's too reticent (cowed/stupid) to pull the Article 25 lever, then will someone point this out to "MOTHER?!"

Honestly, this leaking to CNN that it is still on the table is driving me nuts. Just do it.

1. I think it's a warning to Trump to neuter him

I'm not agreeing with it but I think that is the strategy.

3. That is not my point. Read my post again, please

Using it as a threat does nothing to address the obvious need/benefit/inarguable necessity of doing it now for Pence's own safety.

2. And Indiana is as MAGA as it gets.

They'll be stalking him.

4. He doesn't become President if the 25th is enacted

He is just exercising the duties of the President. So I think his benefits stay the same.

[hlthe2b]

6. No. But if he starts to enact it, it may well force Trump to resign.

5. The 25th Amendment won't make him the 46th president. He'll still be VP

The only way he becomes president entitled to all the post-presidency benefits is if Trump resigns or is removed by the Senate pursuant to impeachment

[hlthe2b]

7. No, but if he begins the process, it may well force the resignation.

9. When faced with three choices and only being able to control one of them

I think his ego will see his resignation as the only way .
Being impeached or 25’d means other people (his “enemies) are in charge.
He might just come around to the “strong” choice of resigning.
Soon I hope. The sooner the better.

What perks would he then have or not have?

8. That is what I said...get rid of Trump and let Pence assume the presidency...it may save his life.

10. Pence knows. That is why he jump and running in random directions,

like a roach at night on the kitchen floor in the beam of a flashlight.
