When you try to look at things objectively, this is top class espionage from the Russians. It's completely surreal and ridiculous but it would appear that they pulled it off.

I'm not sure you're viewing it as objectively as you think you are, but I'm open to the possibility that neither am I.

Nixon brought in Ford because his own VP was tainted

Trump might bring in someone from outside his circle as VP if he's gonna be impeached

and to troll us all it'll be Sean Hannity

Spiro Agnew actually resigned due to corruption charges completely unrelated to Watergate. He had been accepting bribes as governor of Maryland and County Executive of Baltimore prior to becoming VP, and resigned when those deals came to light.

That's not to say that it won't come out that Pence is also tainted here, but it's probably unfair to draw a direct parallel to the Nixon Administration with regard to a potential VP resignation in this case.
 
Call me cynical but I don't trust the GOP to do anything here.

I think with every one of his failed projects (healthcare bill, travel ban, wall) he loses more and more supporters within the party. If Trump becomes an active liability to the party I can see them excise him. It's not like during the election when they felt they could just grin and bear it and assume he'll go away after a couple of months.

So did Trump sacrifice Nunes yesterday - and possibly fracture the most Trump friendly investigation leading potentially to an independent investigation and draw further attention to how corrupt AND petty he is - just to make a half assed assertion that he sort of was right if you look at it sideways?

And people say six dimensional chess.

Paul Ryan goes down with the AHCA, Nunes gets appointed Speaker.

Nunes proposes select committee on Russia.

Trump and Pence get impeached.

President Nunes.
 
I just went on foxnews out of curiosity. Of course their front page is a headline saying a bombshell is coming to prove Obama spied on Trump. Not a single mention of evidence of collusion. Fox News is the most popular news channel in America. This is how and why out country has gotten to where it is now.
My father watches Fox News. He has come to the conclusion that Trump and his family are being targeted by liberals which is why they have to live in "hotels" and why Trump can't stay in the White House. Then goes on to tell about how the evil socialist Bernie Sanders is a secret billionaire who just bought his third home.

"My Father's Son" by Pearl Jam

I come from a genius, I am my father's son,
Yeah, too bad he was a psychopath and now I'm the next in line,
Loneliness, dear mother, yes, surely she's a work of art,
Might never got top dollar, but she gave us all a star.

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool don't hurt me.
Can I beg a release
From the volunteer amputee?
From the moment I fell
I called on DNA,
Why such betrayal
Got me tooth and nail.

Yeah, how's about one conversation with nothing else left to be had,
(Oh, is this) your young long lost son, and he's never had dear old dad,
I forget the insemination and for that I'm s'posed to be glad,
What a pity you left us so soon to climb your mountain of regret.

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool dark and deep.
Can I beg a release?
Can I volunteer amputee?
From the moment I fell
I called on DNA,
Why such betrayal?
Oh I gotta set sail.

Oh real bright light shining as you're trying to breathe in thin air,
Cannot forget you're hiding collected wounds left unhealed,
When every thought you're thinking sinks you darker than the new moon sky,
The faraway lights rising in the whites of your eyes.

Now father you're dead and gone and I'm finally free to be me,
Thanks for all your fucked up gifts for which I've got no sympathy,
I'm living in a walled-up place in the bounds of 5th symphony,
Thanks for this and thanks for that, I gotta let go, learn to see.

Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool don't hurt me.
Can I beg a release?
Can I volunteer amputee?
From the moment I fell
I called on DNA,
Why such betrayal
Oh I gotta set sail.
