IMO, North Korea must be giving up their missile program at this point because either:

1) China insisted (backed by threat of some crippling action)
2) CIA got to NK's hired-Ukranian scientists and/or computer systems and rendered them unusable
3) NK is now actually straight up bankrupt and cannot continue its nuke program

Wonder if China emphasized in their meeting that they don't need a missile program to retain sovereignty, just fissile material and the implicit threat of the ability to use that fissile material at some point

so NK can produce for domestic purposes while Kim gets left alone by the Int'l community and China agrees not to assassinate him for continuing to act a fool

The best part about all of this is.....that if Trump does end up getting the boot.....we still have to move forward with Mike Pence.

Its going to be a long few years regardless.

Pence will suck HARD for women, minorities, and LGBTQXYZ but he won't bring nuclear winter. He can be voted out and his policies can be reversed (and I don't know for sure, but I don't think he's as heartless with the environment)...

The Mike Pence Effect would be very real and very bad, but nothing compared to where our current POTUS is taking us.

Donald Trump is spending his morning directly attacking a reporter, Roger Stone, and Sam Nunberg over an article suggesting Michael Cohen will flip.

I turned on Fox News for a moment, and they were reporting on what socks President HW Bush plans on wearing to the funeral.

What if Pence is also charged or has to step down (like he's on the pee tape too)?

Who takes over then?

I've always thought the presidential line of succession was kinda weird.

I guess the idea is that you want a top elected official before cabinet positions, but in a state of emergency/disarray the SoS, AG or SoD would seem better suited than the Speaker of the House and Senate pro tem.

The Speaker makes a certain amount of sense. The president pro tem is a terrible idea. It's a completely meaningless position that is always held by one the two or three oldest people in the Senate. And no one think the Sec of HUD or Energy should be President. And if someone dropped a nuke on DC, they could all die.

Cynically, those people are next in line because all succession after the VP was established by law in Congress; the Constitution only deals with the VP. If it ever came down to someone outside the VP, I think the minority party would almost certainly bring it to the courts to challenge it.

Apparently Trump was told not to attend Barbara Bush’s funeral in order to respect her values, and the family sent that message.

Is this true does anyone know?

I mean it’s not like he would have gone anyways. His one tweet in her memory he managed to make it about himself.

It just seems that stability and national defense would be the biggest concern if it went past the VP and having someone like the SoS next in line would make the most sense.

Throwing the nation further into turmoil by potentially having the opposition party assume the presidency is just dumb.

So let's say Trump resigns and Pence is sworn in immediately. Then Pence would pick a VP? And that person becomes next in line?
