Never claimed to be anything but.

Sure, Trump’s doing some pretty fucked up shit. But what has he really accomplished?

Legislatively, he’s a fucking loser. He’s got full control of all branches of government and he hasn’t chalked up a single win yet. All he can do is sign EOs, and he hasn’t moved on most of the shit he’s signed so far.

Okay, he got one Supreme Court justice confirmed. But he didn’t even do that, McConnell did.

He’s the most unpopular president ever, and when the Russian shit really hits the fan, that will get a lot worse.

I lived through Nixon, and at the time we were counting the days until the demise of this nation.

We’re still here.

We lived through Nixon because Agnew was forced out of office and replaced by Ford AND the Republican party was sane then. It doesn’t look like Pence is leaving. He probably won’t do the grifting but everything else that Trump tried, Pence will manage and actually get through. Is there anyone in the Trump cabinet that Pence wouldn’t support, other than possibly Linda McMahon? Of course, he is less likely to start a nuclear war — which may be his only saving grace — and his behavior would be more conventional.
