      1. So the big hot take on the left is "Why push for impeachment? President Pence would be worse!" Can I explain why this is nonsense?

      2. Trump & Pence bad but different. Trump is chaotic evil, Pence is lawful evil. Trump is the Joker, Pence the Grand Inquisitor.

      3. Worst case scenario under Pence is The Handmaid's Tale (theocratic totalitarianism). With Trump it's Mad Max (nuclear apocalypse).

      4. America can recover from a theocracy (in fact it already has: early Puritan settlements). Less easy to recover from a nuclear holocaust

      5. Leaving aside worst case scenarios, the simple fact is that a President Pence would take command of torn, wounded GOP.

          6. If Trump quits or is impeached, the GOP will be ripped apart. Trump has a significant personality cult of 40% of party.

          Pence's innate stupidity would be revealed in the disastrous mix.
