MSNBC guest outlines plan to impeach Trump and make Nancy Pelosi president
Wash Examiner ^ | Oct 6 2019 | Carlin Becker

Posted on 10/06/2019 11:08:24 PM PDT by rintintin

MSNBC contributor and former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks presented a way to remove President Trump from office and pave the way for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to assume the Oval Office: impeach Vice President Mike Pence first and offer the president a deal.

Joining the network's AM Joy on Saturday, Wine-Banks was asked if Congress should look to impeach Trump first or turn their eyes to Pence instead. In response, she suggested going after Pence first and giving Trump the option to either replace him before being impeached himself — so that a Republican can remain in the White House — or decline and let Pelosi take over.

"You could impeach Pence first," Wine-Banks stated. "The problem is that Donald Trump then has to name his replacement. But I think that maybe a deal could be struck where he was told, 'If you don’t make a replacement, then Nancy Pelosi does become president. And so, you are going to be impeached and convicted. You need to make this replacement so that the proper party remains in power.'"

If Pence is ousted, Trump should appoint Don Jr

I don’t get this idea we’re not supposed to know what the other side is saying/thinking

An army that ignored its enemy’s strategizing would lose fast and hard

I have to admit that’s the most idiotic thing I’ve read in years and I used to go to the Drudge Report and when I was in 8th grade I read Mad Magazine.

Some questions:

What has Pence done that is impeachable?

If that were the case, why wouldn't Trump name a replacement? Why does he need a "deal" in order to do that?

Except that he's not eligible.

“Except that he’s not eligible.”

I would love to see the Dumbocrats making that argument.

Idiotic you say, you must not have been around when they framed Spiro Agnew with trumped up charges and gave him a choice, quit as vice president or be assassinated. Funny how history repeats itself, especially when the evil democrat party gets threatened.

He was 110% correct in sharing how depraved the left is.

I think Jill has been drinking too much wine, near the banks, in a van, down by the river.

Talk about an attempt at blackmail! Looks like an effort toward collusion as well.

Neither Trump nor Pence could be removed from office without the votes of 2/3 of the Senators. Also, Trump can fire anyone in the executive branch, except VP Pence.

If the VP office becomes vacant, approval of the House of Representatives is required for the President to name a replacement VP. I think that is how Nelson Rockefeller and Gerald Ford became VP.

[ What has Pence done that is impeachable? ]

He’s a Christian.

That’s good enough for the Huffington Post Democrats at Yahoo. Several of them have mentioned it. They hate it.

Thus Jill Wino-Bank, at age 76, is growing as demented as old Bernie. But MSNBC watchers will drink the Kool-Aid.
