Trump is too much of a Chris Christie hugger, Giuliani is on his fantasy presidential team too. He's connected to these globalists no other way he would get so much preferential treatment in the media. The solid money is on Chris Christie, I don't even doubt it.
“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
Would Pence accept a cabinet position? That could also be a reason not to file for re-election. Or he might not file because he will likely lose re-election.

I just want objectivity on this forum and will point out flawed sources or points of view at my leisure.

Partisan politics, misleading or emotional bill titles, and 4D chess theories are manifestations of the same lie—that the text of the Constitution, the text of legislation, and plain facts do not matter; what matters is what you want to believe. From this comes hypocrisy. And where hypocrisy thrives, virtue recedes. Without virtue, liberty dies. - Justin Amash, March 2018
better than Christie, but Newt would have been far better. Pence too establishment, and if anything goes wrong would give Trump no protection from impeachment. When Nixon picked Ford to replace Agnew his fate was sealed. Chaney protected Bush 43
You are splitting hairs. Trump never said he would or could quit. Period. Yet, the claim has been made on here several times that he did.
You may be ferocious enough, but you are not correct. How long are you going to keep thumping this tub? Are you capable of admitting you were wrong?
Trump NEVER SAID he could or would quit. Interesting that you are still trying to further this lie.
I know the Republicans suck. Do you know the Libertarians do too?This. Plus all manner of passive-aggressive behaviors which are leading to infractions being passed out like candy. Three cheers for the neocon duopoly; looks like they're finding a way to divide the populace against itself again.
I can't claim to still be amazed at how rank-and-file Republicans get themselves played, over and over, again and again. I got used to that. What I can't seem to get used to is how proud they seem to be of getting played. Again and again.

The more prohibitions you have,
the less virtuous people will be.
The more weapons you have,
the less secure people will be.
The more subsidies you have,
the less self-reliant people will be.
Therefore the Master says:
I let go of the law,
and people become honest.
I let go of economics,
and people become prosperous.
I let go of religion,
and people become serene.
I let go of all desire for the common good,
and the good becomes common as grass.

This guy could even be POTUS on Day 2. Trump has said he could resign if he got elected and didn't feel like doing the job. Otherwise, he would be VPINO:

Would Donald Trump Quit if He Wins the Election? He Doesn’t Rule It Out
Ender
The Times cites a recent interview with the presumptive GOP nominee in which a scenario was posed to him about declining the presidency right after defeating Hillary Clinton. Trump, the report says, "flashed a mischievous smile," then says, "I’ll let you know how I feel about it after it happens."
The story goes on to say that this could've been simply another of the real estate mogul's bids to gain media attention, though notes that the idea that Trump's competitive desire to win the highest office in the land might surpass his interest in actually serving in it wouldn't exactly be wildly inconsistent with how some might look at this most unusual of campaigns.

“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found.

Regardless, we got Bush as a president eventually. And his son. And 9/11 and the Department of Homeland Security and the surveillance state and the Iraq War and Afghanistan and Al Qaeda and ISIS and Bataclan and Nice. Could Pres. Clinton be much worse?
One or two more terrorist acts on Western soil in the next 3 months and Trump/Pence is our president regardless. It's funny how this pattern always plays out.

Nancy knew. Nancy hated the Bushes.

Wayne Madsen Reports was told by a longtime national security aide to then-President Ronald Reagan that First Lady Nancy Reagan told White House staff that “I never want to see the Bushes again.”
The comment came after Bush family friend John Hinckley attempted to assassinate Reagan on March 30, 1981, some seven weeks after the presidential inauguration. Mrs. Reagan apparently was convinced that Vice President George H W Bush and Second Lady Barbara Bush were somehow connected to the assassination attempt.
