Can a President fire a VP? Would be interesting to see whether or not Trump turns on Pence if he's fearing a backstabbing.
He can, but it would be completely stupid since Pence has been a good ally and it would make Trump look even more desperate than he does now.
Nixon did it. So it only stands to reason Trump will.
We would be back to traditional family values Republicanism that puts women and gays in their rightful places.
Does anyone ever kinda feel like this is the moment the Monty Python troop pops out of the woodworks and declares this whole thing "silly"?
Deputy AG Rosenstein appointing this special prosecutor without the knowledge of the Trump team presumably means he did so under the nose of AG Sessions.
If that's the case, that's got to be seriously bad news for Sessions. Either the Trump side will slaughter him or the house or senate committee undermined him intentionally because he isn't trusted and or is one of the ones expected to be under the microscope.

Given the speculation that's been going on since at least November that Pence was the back-up plan, is it far-fetched to suspect him of being one of the primary sources of leaks from the WH?
I think by then the office of the President and the GOP would be so tainted theres nothing he could do to get reelected unless he went full Frank Underwood.
Nobody suspects the Spanish Inquisition!
So this confirms the present day GOP are a fecking crime family. I think it may be time to visit the old west days with a little vigilante justice.
Pence has also gone to decent lengths to keep himself separate from the Russia story. He probably wants the big job. Him getting fired will depend if Trump think he'll get a pardon.
CNN reporter confirmed Sessions did not know until after order was signed.
Do you not think Trump might do it out of pettiness towards the GOP if he thinks they will let him go down?
I don't think he would pardon Trump. Just my opinion. Pardoning him after he was deemed guilty would completely impugn Pence's credibility as President.
Looks like Jon Voight is fecked then.
Don't think he would, as it would completely ruin what little credibility he has left.
Perhaps, but he might use it as his one piece of leverage. Create chaos within the GOP and try to get them to stand by him. It'd be madness, right enough, but might throw a spanner in the works.
Ol' Beauregard will probably be one of those investigated by the special counsel so why would he be in the loop?
Perhaps not, but the problem with Trump is that with the reputation and attention he's garnered, people pay attention to what he says, even if just to ridicule it. Having him on Twitter regularly ridiculing the new administration after him, and potentially making up all sorts of shites about them, could be incredibly damaging.
When it's time for him to decide between resignation and impeachment what use is credibility?
Nah, I doubt it. Pence is many things, including cowardly. He's backed Trump until now for some power, and I reckon his preferred tactic is to stay distant and watch things fall apart. Leaking has major risks.
It would be completely daft and wouldn't help Trump achieve any goal. If anything, his best bet is to arrange his own exit and try to coax Pence into promising a pardon.
"Forrest Trump"
Nice! So Doby the Elf wasn't aware, that is a good indication that he will be under investigation too. Poisonous little shit.
He won't be able to Tweet from jail.
The thought of Trump in jail gives me wonderful schadenfreude. Do what you're told, when you're told, no fake tan, no hairspray and no privileges.
With the legal team he'll have, he won't go to jail for a fair bit of time I'd imagine. And as he drags it out, he'll still be able to tweet I imagine. Even if he can't, news media will still be clambering to talk to him considering the remarkable circumstances, and if Trump talks shit about Pence it'll be very damaging.
I still think Trump would prefer his own Gerald Ford.
