the end of that rainbow is unification of the GOP and a Pence presidency, then potentially a 2nd Pence Presidency. also lots of down ballot implications and potentially flipping the house and holding the senate. then Pence guts Obamacare, gets Wall funding, names it the "Trump Memorial Wall", and probably rolls back protections for the LGBTQA+ community. plus god knows what else behind closed doors. could even go after legal pot states. and likely investigates Schumer, Biden, HRC, etc. Endlessly.
ill take the clown in the light over the vampire in the dark. the meme effect of the Trump regime has people thinking Pence is goofier of a person than he is, the dudes a straight shark.
Pence is best friends with the Koch network, he would never commit to a nativist and isolationist agenda the same way Trump does. Also, let's not forget that he was only willing to become Trump's running mate because he was about to lose his upcoming reelection race for governor in Indiana. I really dont think Pence would appeal to Rust Belt Obama-Trump voters the same way Trump did. Indignation over Trump's removal might be enough to carry him across the finish line in 2020, but I see absolutely no way for him to win a second term.
But even one Pence term would be pretty dark already. I wholeheartedly agree with the notion that a President Trump is preferrable in almost every way (except for the optics) to a President Pence.
