No, the Commies and other assorted lefties had been after him since he beat Helen Gahagn Douglas, for the Senate seat from California.

No, it started four years earlier in 1946 when he defeated Rep. Jerry Voorhis of the 12th District, a darling of the Left.

That was the start of the hatred, but NOT the start of the full court press harassment.

They collectively cheered when on a trip to a South American countries trip, idiots threw stones at Nixon,when he was VEEP.

And then there was the whole mess which resulted in the famous, but now sadly forgotten CHECKERS SPEECH; when he was innocent of taking bribes...unlike SO many, especially DEMS! !

I think there is absolutely no chance of Pence turning against Trump. He knows as well as anyone how ridiculous the articles of impeachment are and what snakes the Democrats are. There are a handful of anti-Trump Republican senators who might contemplate voting for conviction--not because they think the charges have merit but just because of their dislike of Trump--but they could be counterbalanced by vulnerable Democrats who might vote for acquittal.

What would Schiff accuse Pence of to justify impeaching him? It's hard to see the American public accepting any such accusation as legitimate especially when the transparent purpose would be to transfer control of the White House to the Democrats.

The “full court press” started when Nixon nailed Alger Hiss. The Left never forgave him for that.

True, BUT...JFK was also on that Committee and he escaped ALL of the venom. So you truly must admit that it was beating Helen Gahagan Douglas and the way he did it, that lit the fuse.

Oh brother. That’s not how it works. Both will not be impeached same day even if they try. Stupid author.

That’s Schiff’s path. He has the will to go to any level to win. He doesn’t believe his enemy has that will.

~~~~~~~~~

I think Schifft is desperate to avoid what is coming - payments from Ukraine oligarhs, association with Ed Buck, Standard Hotel, etc..he’s in the middle of the whole coup mess.

You are right about what he is thinking.

But, he’s digging his own political and legal ditch. No one can continue this sort of insanity without doing themselves in.

...A coup is nigh impossible without the support of an autonomous military unit or the FBI...

Or the CIA? Or the justice department? Or the myriad agencies and "non-profits" in D.C.? Or international entities and financiers? Or the entire 'official' media? What was antifa about, if not a taste of the destructive power of a primed mob ready to go at a single Facebook summons?

Are we certain we're not falling under sway of the so-called 'normalcy bias?'

"You mean VPDJT?"

LOL, yes, VPDJT.

Meanwhile, my mind translated VPDJT as, Very Presidential Donald John Trump.

Headed for major FAIL. Mike Pence is NOT likely to have much of anything for which they could impeach him, even if, by some strange spin of events, Donald Trump ends up being removed from office.

Newsflash: Trump didn't have anything for which they could impeach him, so they made up fake charges and ran with them. Think they wouldn't do that twice?
