After 200 days, rarely has any Administration achieved what we have achieved..not even close! Don't believe the Fake News Suppression Polls!
11:10 AM - 8 Aug 2017
The President of The United States should be in the Situation Room on a day like this. Instead, he is tweeting about old grievances against the media and tweeting delusional assessments of his administration.
Trump is suffering from serious mental incapacity. Why are the republicans who have the power to remove him sitting by and doing nothing to protect this country?
Say what you want about Pence being a religious zealot and not all that smart, at least he is not insane.

(100,102 posts)Especially when you hear that NK has enough range to be able to launch a missile toward New York.

(13,485 posts)not a warhead. If they shot a missile toward the mainland it would be taken out easily. But it would start a war on the ground over there we would surely lose in the short run. Hundreds of thousands lost.

(884 posts)The reporting is that the 'fire and fury' quote is in response to reports that they have a missile-capable warhead.

(81,466 posts)Last I saw, there's enough range to hit as far as Chicago.
I'm also wondering whether trump thinks launching a military offensive means America will feel compelled to come together behind him, the way most of us did after the September 11th attacks. Nothing like a war to boost the ol' poll numbers and effectively silence the opposition.
This is UTTER MADNESS.

(3,789 posts)Too bad we don't have that. It's to the point where when I wake up the first thing I do is to check my phone to see if trump has attacked/nuked NK.
global1
(25,270 posts)could that be why he isn't placing the importance that he should be on it?
What if Putin is pushing NK/Kim Jong Il to rattle the sabers just to take the MSM off the Russian collusion story and Mueller's investigation?
Remember this - we've been through something like this before:
And now Trump is on vacation playing golf.
Now watch this drive!!!!!!!

(48,955 posts)at this du thread: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10029431192#post4 The propaganda document explains his second insane tweet.
Those around him are not trying to help him run anything - this is disgusting, enabling behavior. And everyone who works in that white house knows it is a farce.
Dangerous.

(11,744 posts)About the second tweet. No other administration has managed to be so hated, so incompetent, and lack one legislative accomplishment within the first 200 days. His administration is unique in that perspective.
syringis
(5,101 posts)Don't be shy Dingo :rarely? Go for it : never, ever. That's for humility.
I Agree : never any Administration has achieved such chaos nor turned the WH into a cheeky wacky circus, on extremely short timelines. Not even close.

(5,813 posts)We are seeing a bit of desperation by tRump. He has to amp up his Tweets in a pathetic attempt to get some attention. Even his fan-base is catching on and are slowly fading away in their adoration. He still thinks he can do just about anything and they won't abandon him. He might want to ask Bill Cosby how things are going for him. At some point the behavior becomes too much to ignore. tRump seems to have reached that point where only the ones who drank the Koolaide will stay by his warm side. The rest are coming out of their tRump induced coma.

(7,434 posts)But the indictments need to get public exposure before Trumpy blows up half the globe.
Rumor has it that Schneiderman will issue indictments by Friday. Cross your fingers, buy an extra handful of limes for your vodka tonics, and shower daily. Here it comes...

(51,627 posts)in Congress and told Reich that they all know he is flipping out fast. He said it is more likely they'll use the 25 Amend sooner than Impeachment (if it ever gets to that point). They are already planning for Pence as president and 2020 without 45. I guess they don't think Pence will be involved too, as well as Ryan and McConnell.

(8,554 posts)I'd say that you've probably never had a conversation with anyone who espouses dominionism. Those people are off-the-chart fanatical and they are extremely power-hungry.
Dumping Trump should be a package deal, the whole kit and caboodle, or this nation is in for even bigger trouble!
