I think we have to face the truth that no one seems to want to admit. This is no longer a case of excessive narcissism or grandiosity. We’re not simply dealing with an unusually large ego.

The president of the United States is seriously, frighteningly, dangerously unstable. And he’s getting worse by the day.

Such a person in the Oval Office can do serious damage.

What to do? We can vote him out of office in 14 months’ time. But he could end the world in seven and a half seconds.

There’s also the question of whether he’ll willingly leave.

How bad will it get before we do something? What can be done? This is a serious question from me - what are our options?

VooDoo

I've been asking that question since November 9th, 2016. The slim hope that the Office of the President might change Trump vanished before he was even inaugurated. There was one tiny moment when as President-Elect, he visited Obama and was awed by the White House, but that wee spark of hope died immediately, as he held court like a conquering emperor over in Bedminster.

We have to keep pressuring our MoCs, the DNC, Pelosi, Schumer and all the rest of the so-called "leaders" of the Democratic Party to grow a set, to grow spines, to recognize that you cannot win playing by the rules against a party and President who cheat at everything, at every turn. You don't bring Marquis of Queensbury to a street fight. They don't get it, they refuse to get it, because it upsets their world, not realizing that a Trump dictatorship ENDS their world!

I admire Michelle Obama, but when she said "When they go low, we go high!" she set the stage for defeat...and that defeat happened.

We are in a war for our nation, as cataclysmic as the Civil War, and it's not looking to me as if we'll win and survive, but rather become Putin's Russia.

No, being POTUS hasn't improved Trump, like Nixon and his Imperial Presidency the position went to his head and like Nixon he feels owed reelection. A strong economy, dirty tricks and a poor Democratic nominee got Nixon reelected and Donnie's trying to follow the same path.

Sad. My MoC is GOP, never cared about my opinion, and is retiring. All I can do is help get out the vote here.

My duty is to simply do what I can to flip my State Senate seat to blue (our current senator introduced the abortion ban bill that passed) and to flip our US Rep District blue. If that happens, we are one step closer to flipping our TWO senate seats blue and deliver 16 electoral college votes. The stakes are pretty big here, but it is an uphill climb. POTUS is not our biggest problem.

If it doesn't work out in 2020, we just try again in 2022 to replace our racist fake-Christian governor.
