Politico and Rasmussen have him at over 50% approval.

The Democrats are actually going to have to campaign on ideas people like in order to win. This is why Republicans win easily for the foreseeable future. Democrats have no popular ideas and instead of finding some they just call everyone Nazi. Apparently Democrats aren't intelligent enough to pick up a history book. If they did they might discover Nazism was defeated in 1945.

So, impeachment? I'd call that remote possibility.

But what's already occurring is that tRump has been weakened, maybe beyond the point of no return. And that would make him nothing more than a figurehead. One who can't speak or tweet or communicate with any authority even within his own party.

It's very amusing.

Do you have an obsession with "rumps?" If so, very strange.

You did read the link from the Hill I posted, a conservative media outlet. It showed the actual request from the Trump transition team requesting Tanks and other military vehicles from the pentagon. Note that the pentagon wanted nothing to do with it.

Calling people delusional and culture followers is not a winning argument. It's deplorable.

You can stay in la la land for as long as you wish. Doesn't matter to me.

You're right. Trump campaigned on ideas people liked. Bring back jobs to the rust belt. Give every coal miner a pick and shovel. Eliminate the entire education system. Kiss Russia's ass. Screw NATO, Lock Her Up. Cheap, wonderful Healthcare for everyone.

Never mind that none of that is doable, you just need to say it and enough idiots will believe it.

Make America Great........Again.

What the hell does that even mean?

An "inauguration team member" anonymously telling Huff Post is what you base your hypothesis on? Lmao.

Lets be reasonable, you straw maned a good deal of that.

He didn't run on that interpretation of yours.

Yes, a good candidate is usually what it takes.

I believe there are people out there who are delusional and worship Trump as if he's some sort of cult leader. I didn't specifically put you in that category. I'm not sure if I touched a nerve, but you shouldn't be offended - unless you're not embarrassed by Trump at this point.
