Ernst Röhm was the closest guy to Hitler and the most powerful guy. The success of the Nazis to take over Germany has a lot to thank Ernst Röhm and his SA. While others called Mr. Hitler "Mein Führer", only Ernst called him "Adolf". Hence Ernst had to go.

Now things are different, but knowing Trump's ego, a Trump advisor shouldn't have this kind of portrayal in the media:

Agree. Use the SA to get the power to you, and then off with the SA.

As you have said, you use your advisors and cabinet members as long as they are useful.

It's quite obvious why Flynn had to go, because It was Trump who ordered Flynn to do what he did, the whole Logan Act legal bind would eventually lead back to Trump in a "what did the President know and when did he know it?" moment, so Flynn had to fall on his sword, to try to nip this thing in the bud before it started to work its way up to the Fuhrer himself.

Flynn may still have to pull an Ollie North and take the fall for the President, if the Legislature takes this all the way to a subpeona, which they just might do.

I hear what you're saying, but I'd just keep in mind that Pence will most likely have more influence in the White House than the Republican Party.

The GOP might have left the neoconservatives behind, but Pence is very tight with them and holds very similar views.

That's fine by me, I like Mike, Trump is the RINO, Pence is the real GOP, given a choice between Pence and Trump, I would vote for Pence.

I have no beef with a massive military build up on a trace in Europe to confront Mr. Ivan, Smitty LeMay says bring it on, MC MIC, LMT shareholders FTW.

Easy targets first. Bannon will be much more difficult for Trump to cut loose. He is smart, and probably has dirt. It will take some time before Trump go full cuck and get rid of all of our boys. Next target is Conway. Bets on how long she sticks around?

The Republic is in no danger, if Trump gets impeached, we get President Pence, Trump Schmump, make it happen, ain't nothing wrong with a President Pence, Trump was a means to an end, but now that he's cucking out, you can go ahead and throw his sorry ass under the bus, he's totally expendable at this juncture, Pence for Trump bait and switch, me likey.

Yeah, I'm gonna proudly crow for calling this weeks ago:

Then, when his pet fool's been disposed of one way or another, assume the Presidency under the auspices of a "return to sanity" to a by now very receptive and grateful nation.

So many ways it could happen too! A Federal coup ending in impeachment? Invoking Section 4 of the 25th Amendment? Just plain waiting for Trump to kick over from stress or just abdicate?

We were so busy concerning ourselves with number 45, we weren't paying attention to the man gunning for 46. We just assumed we'd get another Cheney, not that he'd be so ambitious to steal the whole enchilada for himself. Much as I hate his guts, I have to tip my hat to Pence: he's played his hand extremely well. Raise a toast to Future-President Michael Pence; he may go down in history as the most powerful American President never elected.
