Democrats taking back control of the house in the midterms. Trump and pence are both found guilty of impeachable offenses. They both resign or are removed. Third in line to become president in this situation would be the current speaker of the house, who will in all likelihood be a Democrat after the 2018 midterms.

Speaker of the house belongs to the majority party. If both the president and vp were to die, resign, or be impeached, the current speaker becomes president. That is how it works.

Even if the likelihood is that the Speaker is a Republican, the affect of Impeachment would make Republicans act like Democrats for fear of losing their jobs.

The resulting fallout of the 1st US President actually being impeached would destroy the Republican platform and to stand on it would get you radioactive and voted out quickly. They would be doing things like give love to PP just to try and get back female voters that a GOP Impeachment would otherwise destroy chances at, ever.

It very well could. Lindsay Graham, a GOP Senator, threatened the GOP President today at a news conference over Trump firing Mueller or Sessions with regards to the current investigation.

The investigation which will most likely lead to impeachment.

Does the Speaker of the House become the Vice President if the President dies?
ALL the previous answers are incomplete. Upon the removal from office OR death of a President, the VP takes the oath of office and becomes the new Prez. AFTER that, the new Prez nominates a new VP. That nominee must be approved by BOTH the House AND the Senate (simple majority vote). BOTH The Speaker (3rd in line) can only take over the Presidency if BOTH the Prez and the VP slots are vacant. We came a bit close to that in 1973 when Nixon was possibly going to be impeached and his VP had already resigned. The Seaker would have been become ACTING President if Nixon had been impeached and removed OR had resigned. The Speaker used to be 4th in line. That changed in 1792. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_line_of_succession

No it won't. Voter turnout in the midterms is shit. It's generally the elderly who vote Republican, and even if that wasn't the case, the reelection of Congress in comparison to the satisfaction with Congress is absurd.

Oh, and even if they win the House they only vote to impeach, the Senate is the Jury if I remember correctly. So they need to win all of Congress, not just the House. That's not gonna happen.

You're wrong. angry people vote in midterms. Angry old Republicans turned out in 2010 and 2014. Democrats angry at bush turned out in the 2006 midterms, taking control of the house and senate.

this is the real key--districts are gerrymandered to hell, so really the house being taken with a tiny majority for dems would require them to win by more than 6% nationally

what is more interesting right now is state level races for governor and legislature. if dems take house legislatures they can have their turn at perverting democracy to disenfranchise republican voters

The speaker won't be a Democrat in 18, I'd almost be willing to bet on that. However, impeachment of Trump is looking more and more likely with each day. His fanbase is getting ticked off with him, as can be seen by attacks from Fox News, Breitbart, and even Drudge Report. You'll quickly see Congress turn on him once enough Republicans disapprove of him. As can be seen from a Fox News poll, that's not far off.
