I saw this article and it was too good not to share

I pulled the image straight from the source code - my apologies if it doesn't work.

Actually - this could be a fun game. Who would win each bracket and go up against Trump?

Hollywood and Silicon Valley don't get automatic bids anymore?

I wouldn't seed Trump automatically in yet.

I have a feeling that one or more Old-school republicans will take a crack at him in the Primaries.

Romney could be a contender. Heck, his view on the Russians as it relates to foreign policy is becoming prophetic.

I could see Romney running, especially if Russiagate heats up

I can't believe you compiled that entire list just for me.

I was commenting on the state of our politics and not the state of the Democrat party.

You routinely berate the left and Hollywood
Without looking too deeply into who's actually electing Hollywood into office
(Hint: It's not the left)

I wouldn’t bet on Trump finishing his term, either.

Well one will not have to worry about twitter diatribes with Pence at least. But those that hate Trump should be careful in wishing he was gone.

Politically, yeah. I think a Pence President with a Republican Congress would be a lot more effective at passing their agenda.

Would still rather see Trump gone, though. I think his presidency will do more long term damage beyond politics.

I think Pence destroyed his credibility by associating himself with Trump. Also he's really bad about squinting his eyes and trying to look honest and sincere while he lies through his teeth. That also is associated with his effort accomodate Trump.

But I agree that Trump as President does more long term damage to both the country and to the conservative movement.

I laughed at that one too.
