The media won't quit and Trump can't help himself. I expect he will flame out. Too bad the country will be dragged down with him.

Popcorn time.
Only if he breaks the law. Otherwise he loses very few of his original voters.

He'll need more than that. Next time Hillary won't be in the mix.

I expect a significant political backlash. This country could be a radically different place come 2020.

If this is true, it doesn't speak well for Trump's management style:

Quote:
Specifically, Mr. Trump told Deputy National Security Adviser K. T. McFarland that she could retain her post, even after the ouster of National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. Harward refused to keep McFarland as his deputy, and after a day of negotiations over this and other staffing matters, Harward declined to serve as Flynn’s replacement.

Harward had a problem. He was too entrenched in the establishment. When Bill Kristol came out last night and said that Harward would be more communicative and more cooperative with the never-Trumpers, he was dead.

So the story about McFarland is false news?

As is the story that Harward was offered the job and turned it down?

I don't get it. The story says "two sources close to the situation" . You mean that there are so many people "in the know" with each "situation" that has been leaked, that someone can't figure out who is the rat and leaking fake news to the press ?

Rasmussen? You have got to be kidding me!!! According to Gallup, 40% approval; 55% disapproval. According to Pew Research , 39% approval and 56% disapproval.


Rasmussen ALWAYS overstates the Republican side.

There may never have been a President who has done so poorly so quickly.

Yeah, right. He's knocking out the shit regulations Obama imposed every day. Today coal. The Dems can only drag their feet. They have no power. They have control of nothing. 35 States controlled by Repubs. That's where big changes are still to come. Poorly? He's cruising along

By the end of the year, planned parenthood will be defunded too. Let's just get the Gorsuch stuff over, then stand around and wait for Ginsburg to fall out. Time is on our side.

Bitch and whine all you want. When the Dems lose 4-5 seats in the Senate in two years.....the race for change really begins

Who cares. Many heard Kristol and never Trumpers praise the guy and our antenna's went up.

He's got an entire intelligence apparatus working against him. He needs to not let a fox slip into the hen house. The more they go after him, the more I like him.

Of course you don't know what you saw. Call Trump any name you wish, people such as yourself have very little credibility. Not a personal jab at you but I include all the media and left wing partisans, especially, plus truly stupid people such as Don Lemon, Chuck Todd and Rachel Maddow.

If you paid attention from the beginning you'd understand all this a lot more ... you still may not agree with any of it, but you'd understand it better.
