..and he's going under.

Woodward has a lot more knowledge of the goings on in the White House than I have, for sure. I have been saying for weeks now that I thought Trump was having a nervous breakdown, Woodward just came out and is saying the same thing.

I read an article several years ago about one of the reasons that Trump's divorce documents from Ivana were sealed. It was reported that Trump had a nervous breakdown over that divorce.

Trump is no "tough guy" he is a pansy, always been sucked up to and flattered. He can't take the least bit of criticism let alone being the object of an FBI, special counsel investigation.

Trump is going to implode but what will he do during his implosion? Start a war? A Reichstag fire? A Watergate-like Constitutional crisis?

Whatever it is, whatever he does, Republicans hold our democracy in their hands. Will they choose Trump over country, politics over the Constitution?

republicans, it's mangled and badly broken. But we knew that.

for working class Republicans to figure out that they are being conned but they don't vote "for" something, they vote "against" something.

Seems that tendency is hardwired and exploited maximally.

but he won't start shit because no one will start a war for him

I'm sure Trumpsky would love to have his own little "Just 'Cause", but there's nobody like Noriega handy. His attempts to provoke N. Korea and Iran aren't being embraced, thankfully. No pushovers available. If he does melt down to that extent, it's pretty likely, I think, that he'll be constrained by smarter people.

Well... I hope so, anyhow.

In reading Woodward's book, they don't care about national polls. Just their voters.
