    One way it could somewhat backfire is if the GOP tries that insane plan to put in Trump as Speaker. The next steps are to impeach and remove both the President and Vice President, thus putting Trump back into the White House, since the Speaker is next in line.

    Jeez that’d be fuckin bananas.

    I never even thought that far into their crazy scheme.

    Naturally this would fail hard once it got to the Senate vote, but still…
