This is where we part ways.  He's not "left" nor "right," he's an opportunist who saw opportunity on the right side if the aisle.  For now.

That's right. But every ounce of him is New York Liberal... It is what he was raised in. That is what sets his defaults. So while you are right, he IS a city boy, and must necessarily react according to his raisin.

Nothing like a made up fake story, for gullible people to fall for.

Trump is the guy at the end of the bar who says 'if I were in charge...' He's neither right nor left, he's common sense.

It just so happens that most right wingers ARE right wingers because they also have common sense. If nothing else, Trump and they have that in common.

 :beer:  Exactly.  He saw an opportunity, a void and a very disgruntled voting base and jumped in.  I do though believe he is a patriot and I also believe he's not going to do anything that doesn't benefit his pockets.  Fortunately, for the most part, lining his pockets will also help this country.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Democrat fantasy. They would LOVE for Pence to resign.
One less person to have to take out to clear the road for a Dem President.
The funniest part was when the Dems/MSM tried to draw Pence into the Stormey scandal.
That made me laugh outloud, literally laugh.
Pence has got to be the most straight Christian White guy in D.C.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

And be replaced by Allen West?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

   So if Pence had to resign for 'little boy' problems or kickbacks from Roberts the Christian or something and Trump appointed Cruz as his VP, McConnell wouldn't make that happen in record time?  Regardless of the 'bud' issue which I may add is very perceptive on your part @Wingnut

Yeah, I could get really good illegal stuff that was skunk weed back in Phoenix, but I've found really good product in the legal stores, guaranteed no pesticides, and quality that can be measured in a lab.  I get these little jars with labels that list all the test results.  Sativa buds that are over 20% THC.

Interesting side note, in AZ the legal medical stuff was reading THC at "unacceptably high levels."  Even higher than the stuff I can get in CA and NV.

Good on ya, I guess, But like my beer (PBR, Rainier, Keystone), and most other things (my coffee comes in a large tin can), I find the mundane to be perfectly acceptable - Lest I let my luxuries outpace my realities - Which I have a tendency toward. I now live on less money per month than I used to spend on mochas alone... And I like myself better this way.

See, I went the other way.  I tolerated the mundane for decades, saving up for the day I can retire, so now I like going upper-crust once in a while (like buying my beer by the keg).  When it came to the legalization of weed, I found that I can get top-notch for what ditch weed used to cost.  It's the magic of Adam Smith's dead hand on markets.  There is a demand for high quality, and a general eschewing of the crap the cartels have been passing off (with the added bonus of knowing the cartels get screwed out of being the middleman).

Win-win.

He's not resigning.

He may have a contingency plan if he succeeds to the Presidency, but I'm sure all vice presidents have that.

But the rest is just speculation.
