[quote=flu]Well, the great thing about this country is that once a president gets elected, he gets only gets about 2 years before he needs to become preoccupied with getting re-elected.
At this point, I think you would probably want things to continue to be a complete disaster so that interesting things happen mid term.
It might be entirely possible you have a bi-partisan initiative to eventually get rid of him if things continue blowing up the way they are.
Meanwhile, all these allegations and distractions are good. It keeps Trump and crew from pushing their agenda…
Meanwhile, grab some popcorn and enjoy the circus.
I wouldn’t worry about the rest of the world and losing credibility. I’m sure most people are pretty convinced it’s just Trump. You judge people by individuals not groups or where they are from. On a personal note (your kids), they will be judged on their achievements, not Trump’s failures and a faction of this country’s retardedness.
So again, not my problem, not your problem either.
When things return back to something more rationale and reasonable in our government in the middle, perhaps we do need to include some of those folks NoWhereVille and do something… Ignoring them won’t make problems go away, they just come back with a different ugly head.
I guess Bush Junior wasn’t as bad in retrospect… At least he has a sense of humor…
An excellent post, flu. I hope you’re right about the rest of the world being convinced it’s just trump. I agree that it’s least bad that he keeps getting nothing done. The impossible dream scenario where he fulfills a campaign promise and actually brings back jobs to nowhereville without hurting the rest of the economy might be better, but, again, that’s nothing but a dream. Second least-bad is he sticks around, and he lets congressional republicans do whatever they want. Third least-bad is religious nut Pence becomes president. (similar to previous scenario). Fourth least-bad is he sticks around and he somehow gets what he wants done, which seems to be to attempt to glorify himself and to stoke hate and anger and division and paranoia both at home and abroad all while instigating economically destructive isolationist trade policies and screwing over anybody who’s not rich. Worst-case scenario is he loses his cool (again) and spouts off at Kim Jong Un or Vladimir Putin, then things escalate because he refuses to back down or admit he’s wrong, and a city or some cities get nuked.
