The Boston Globe recently carried two opinion pieces about Trump and his potential successor - Mike Pence.  One argued that it is better to have a hobbled and ineffectual Trump for 4 years than to have Pence as president.  The other focused on Pence's foibles and very significant defects.  These pieces convinced me that Pence may be a worse fate for the US than Trump in terms of potential new legislation and Christian values.  I agree that Trump is unfit to be president, though "Realpolitik" makes me believe that the future of the country and the world may fare better under a hobbled Trump than an ultraconservative Pence.
