Sally Kohn is a liberal commentator who—look, if we are being perfectly honest, I had no idea who she was until about 35 minutes ago—apparently has a gig on CNN. She once wrote a column about how she wished her daughter would be gay, which went over about as well as you’d expect.
Today on Twitter she posted a plan that is getting relentlessly wrecked.
It started when she boldly proclaimed a very easy path for Hillary Clinton to ascend to the presidency in the wake of the Trump administration’s burgeoning scandal over connections with Russia.
Straightforward from here:
1. Impeach Trump & Pence
2. Constitutional crisis
3. Call special election
4. Ryan v Clinton
5. President Clinton— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) February 15, 2017
That seems very straightforward—except that there would not be an election involving Clinton because the “constitutional crisis” in step two is actually “follow the very clearly delineated line of succession procedures in the Constitution that would make Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) president.”
That makes steps 3-5 pretty irrelevant—or the basis of a very good Twitter joke.
