We are seeing Trump’s Wall when it comes to Republicans on his impeachment and violations of the Constitution. They are going to continue to spin it all as partisan attacks to take down Trump..”overturning the will of the 2016 vote”, overturning the “Will of the American People”.
So how should the Dems’ respond? Using logic and “ facts” apparently mean nothing to these cultist GOP followers...Pelosi and the Dems’ should mock this “ overturning the 2016 vote” by pointing out that if Trump IS impeached, Pence would be President. PRESIDENT PENCE. The Evangelical’s wet dream. PRESIDENT PENCE. A godly man. PRESIDENT PENCE. A religious soul. The Dem’s need to play up that PRESIDENT PENCE will be the 46th president , and constantly remind the MSM, and the Republicans, that by defending Trump, they are stopping President Pence from assuming POTUS. This might actually drive a wedge between the Republican factions on why Trump should remain in office or be impeached,..,, if the Dem’s keep pointing out Pence will be POTUS, it might erode Evangelical support for Trump, since Pence was the insurance policy for selling their Christian souls into voting for Trump in the first place, they really want their own guy, and this would be the perfect excuse to turn on Trump. If Pelosi and the others keeps reminding them that their guy is just one impeachment vote away, they may make some noise and suddenly decide it was time to throw Trump under the bus as they get that old time religion back again.
In summation, the Dems should be reminding Republicans that the 2016 vote will not be overturned at all,~ that the Constitution says the VP would be POTUS, and then ask the question to the Republican Senators.. “ what do you have against a President Pence? Has Trump promised you a condo in Moscow for your devotion? How do you explain your support for such a morally corrupt person when President Pence would be a much better representative of America AND make your Evangelical Base happy? Lob one into their ranks and create the chaos they love to do to others. Create division for support for Trump by playing the President Pence card, and how Republican Senators are supporting the wrong Republican for POTUS. Take the Evangelical support for Trump and turn it into support for a President Pence. Give them an excuse to turn on Trump for their man of God. Isn’t that who they really wanted from Day 1? Why deny your base?
