    Default Will the GOP establishment conspire against Trump?

    Allan Lichtman, a Washington DC professor who famously predicted a Trump victory while others were going with Hillary, now has another startling prediction.
    Lichtman believes that Trump will eventually be impeached by a GOP Congress that prefers his running mate, Mike Pence.

    “I'm going to make another prediction,” he said. “This one is not based on a system; it's just my gut. They don't want Trump as president, because they can't control him. He's unpredictable. They'd love to have Pence — an absolutely down-the-line, conservative, controllable Republican. And I'm quite certain Trump will give someone grounds for impeachment, either by doing something that endangers national security or because it helps his pocketbook.”

    Pure speculation...Nothing more than that, since the Speaker Ryan has urged the party to rally together.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    This sounds something like... I dunno... wishful thinking on someone's part?

    How about a nice assassination instead? Death by Hanging, Electrocution, Guillotine, or watching too many episodes of "Dr. Phil"?

    Yes, for sure, but IMO i don't think they'll try to impeach him.

    Assuming he doesn't become the establishment. And the Republican party has seen enough turmoil this year

    Everything depends on the Trumps' actual steps, if you remember the fate of John F. Kennedy.
