I don't think many of his supporters will realize they have been screwed. Identity politics insures their hatred will be aimed at the "others" and not those actually responsible for their situation.

He's all about the grand gesture, the big moment, the reveal. He does know how to stage an event (remember his red carpet arrival at the GOP convention??). He'll either have a paid audience or none. And protesters will probably be at least 3 miles away.

Plus he'll be unable to separate his business from his job.

If/when he starts being bad for business, Big Businesses will seek his ouster.

It's going to be curious to see if he can manufacture his Iranian War before he gets run out of town. Only if we are torn apart by war will he avoid serious scrutiny.

Can you just imagine what the State of the Union address will be like??? Trump with Pence and Ryan behind him??? I really don't think I'm gonna be able to watch--and I always tune in for that.

Can't we impeach or persuade him to leave before inauguration??

Not sure that will be better.

I'm thinking: (1) engineered way to get Pence to resign. (2) Ryan gets himself appointed V.P. (3) Trump's impeachment vote and conviction almost unanimous, proving the Democrats and Republicans can work together. (4) Profit?

But that might have been the plot to the movie Dave or a story arc on some TV show.

After a year of being greeted by fawning crowds in the American heartland, Donald Trump appears to be struggling with the hostility that now surrounds him in New York City.

New Yorkers have voiced their displeasure with a Big Apple mix of in-your-face boisterousness and creative flair.

Not only have there been large and vocal demonstrations, but also more subtle forms of dissent, like the Post-it protest at Union Square subway station, where an entire underpass has become a multi-coloured collage of mainly anti-Trump invective.

Since his unexpected win, Manhattan has taken on the feel of a real-life Gotham, with the billionaire cast by his many detractors as an evil super-villain.

In his eponymous skyscraper he resides, tweeting maniacally, as protesters swirl angrily below fearful that he poses a mortal threat to their city and their planet.

Trump Tower also looks more and more like a gilded cage. Only twice since election night has the billionaire left its Louis XIV-inspired confines.
