    Damn, and there I was, thinking you were going to say that he was doing that on purpose as some kind of Soopa Seekrit 5-dimensional Q code in his Holy War against the Deep State™.

    Nah, I'm perfectly happy calling him a demented troglodyte instead.


    P.S.: I think I've met this Miss Takes of whom you speak. And boy, did she take a lot! She took everything that wasn't welded to the floor.

    The John Hinkley one is pretty bad... he's the one who tried to assassinate Reagan.



    We're not all President and de facto leader of the world are we?

    The 'other side' hasn't been given that grace, has it?

    I'm all for kindness and understanding and I also know I'd be fired from a job with that level of incompetence.

    Forgive my ignorance, but I was under the impression that a procedure had been started to declare him incompetent. Was that just wishful thinking or has such a procedure effectively been initiated?

    In any case, his incompetence has already amply and sufficiently been demonstrated by now. The emperor is not wearing any clothes.

    I don't know if there's any serious 25th Amendment action. I think people are too afraid. Not of Trump, but of actually standing up and using their power. It seems people are lost in their political calculations and can't just do the right thing.

    But I could be wrong.

    If nothing is done the American people will vote his ass out of office. I can't tell you how many people I've heard who are very unhappy about the tax changes. And that's just one thing.

    I know that voting is not popular, but in America it's voluntary and most folks don't vote.

    Trump's 40 something percent approval is amongst likely voters, not the population as a whole. (frankly, his numbers suck). So if even 10 percent more people vote, he's toast.

    In our country, due to shear numbers, voting does make a difference.

    This is why the politics of the right has been so negative throughout my life. They need to keep the numbers down to keep on winning. If most people vote they will lose big-time.

    Trump knows this. And so he will beat the conspiracy drum as hard as he can and might even refuse to leave the White House.

    That will be all we need to know he's gone off the rails.

    And technically, he can do that, because the USA does not have a president but an elected king ─ or emperor, if you will. If he declares a state of emergency, then he can suspend the constitution, and with that also the elections. He does have that power.

    He's never been on the rails. No seriously, when I see Donald Trump in video footage, then what I'm seeing is Benito Mussolini.

    Well, I had never watched him on TV before he was president, but I had seen him on TV in preview flashes of his "The Apprentice" show. And I already didn't like him then either.

    Well, well, well. No comments about how I'm expecting the left to come swooping in to save the day.

    Progress, this is, I think.
