What impeachment leads to

I like this cartoon, even if I don’t agree with its theme — that Republicans and Democrats are interchangeable.

They are not.

What I will say is this: If the Democrats manage to remove President Trump, they will get President Pence. They don’t get the White House, as the cartoon seems to suggest.

President Pence would be a change for the better. He does not trip over his own tongue and does not lie incessantly. He would be closer to our European allies than with dictators such as Putin and Kim.  He seems like a mature adult, if not a “stable genius.” Oh — Pence is not a preening narcissist.

Given evidence of probable presidential abuse of office, I understand why Democrats feel they must confront President Trump, even knowing there is little chance the Senate will convict and remove him, unless public opinion goes ballistic against him.

Might that happen before the election?
