Trump loses popular vote *again*

Fox News poll: 51 percent favor Trump's impeachment and removal from office
https://news.yahoo.com/fox-news-poll-51-percent-231814089.html

A new poll released Wednesday by Fox News shows that just more than half of all registered voters support President Trump's impeachment and removal from office.

Those surveyed said 51% to 43% that Trump should be impeached and removed from office. Four percent said he should be impeached but not removed from office, and 40% said he should not be impeached at all.

...


Of course I'd be the first to point out that in a general way a Fox News poll doesn't mean shit, but I just couldn't resist the headline that popped into my mind.

And that poll is in line with a bunch of others.

The nightmare may be over soon.

will get a lot uglier before it gets better.

Trumpy is entirely compromised by his stubborn refusal to separate himself from his business holdings. Everywhere he has business interests, he is compromised. Other country leaders can extort anything they want from Trumpy under the context of keeping his properties "safe." He'll destroy our foreign policy, our military readiness, our remaining leadership, because he puts his self-interest above all else.

Trumpy makes decisions based upon his business and personal interests. He'll continue to do so. He'll get the Kurds slaughtered, he'll keep his base rabid by keeping asylum seekers in concentration camps-women and children. He'll lash out at ANYONE who opposes his whims and wishes.

On top of all this, Trumpy is a human being who, by any account, WILL act more irrationally and erratically as the stress of his job increases. Under normal presidencies, we've seen how the stress affects past office holders. Trumpy is affected by stress greater by degrees of magnitude because of the constant work he has to do to maintain his alternate reality bubble. He is (legitimately) under constant attack for his rhetoric, his public statements, and his erratic and naive decisions. He was unfit from the get-go, and now the entire nation is paying the price for his con-job and foreign help with his election.

NO ONE is grabbing him by the lapels and telling him to straighten up or he'll be thrown out on his ear. NO ONE is telling him that his days are numbered. NO ONE is telling him that he's fighting the wrong fight, that he shouldn't even be in the ring.

If you think we've been through a nightmare already, the worst is yet to come.
