Former Republican Party Chairman says Donald Trump wont finish his term
By Bill Palmer | April 1, 2017 | 0
Now that weve reached the point where Donald Trumps own guy Mike Flynn is asking for immunity in exchange for testifying in Trumps Russia scandal, the question is whether things are at the point of no return. To that end, the former chairman of the Republican Party is now saying that Trump wont finish his term, and hes advising others to proceed under that assumption and plan accordingly.
...
So this means that yet another prominent voice in politics and one from the conservative Republican side no less now views Donald Trumps ouster as a matter of when and not if. Steele didnt specify whether hes expecting Trump to resign or be impeached.

(13,903 posts)the right of course thinks he is clean as a whistle.
The truth will out somewhere in the middle probably.
We should probably invest our efforts in opposing him and helping him damage the GOP as much as his incompetence and narcissism will allow.

(111,261 posts)which is contributing to his thin skinned behavior, like stomping out before signing executive orders because some reporter asked a question he didn't like. A stable human being would have ignored it, signed the orders, given the press a big grin, waved, and left. Ivanka will cover as much as she can for him but it's not going to be nearly enough.
I think the OP is right, that we will see him quit before the full four years are up. I also think the Russians consider him bought and paid for. I see his dementia getting in the way of that deal unless there is a strong conduit in place to give him direct and frequent orders, a conduit that the FBI will discover and shut down.

(725 posts)many different sources. I believe it will happen a lot sooner than people think. Those that understand that should get ready for chapter two and pence. Maybe he will reinstate the elementary school lunches that trump wants to take away from the children.

I have a wager at Ladbrokes bookies in England that he will not complete his full term. A win would give me enough for a celebratory drink or two.

(5,111 posts)He wouldn't have been up to it with out all of the scandal and controversy, but it will be nearly impossible. They are gunning for hi, republicans included. The chorus is getting louder and louder. His political opponents (Jen, Kasich) are getting ready for the next chapter. They smell blood. I thought Cheney coiling out against him so forcefully was interesting. Keep an eye on those who smell an opportunity to step in after Pence
