We know he has some sort of disorder - borderline personality, extreme narcissism, you name it.
We know he will not only make the worst possible decision at any point, but will work extra hard to undo anything good done before he was in office.
We know that the media salivates when it has opportunities to normalize him.
No matter what, don't forget - about the stolen election, about the media's relative treatment of Hillary vs trump, about the dogwhistles, about the hatred, about all of the "otry" and "ism" being flung about by it and its supporters.
Don't for a second allow yourself to think any of this is normal - or ethical - or moral - or correct. Resist- always resist.
I fear our greatest, perhaps only, hope - for the country, the world, all of us - is in a speedy wrap up of Mueller's work, and findings that take down not only "it", but the white haired equally sick in a different way mini-it - and all of the enablers in congress as well. It is shameful that the GOP shamelessly puts party above decency, above its citizens.
After that - we shall see what pieces need to be picked up.

(7,553 posts).. I have read that many repubs in Congress are also hoping Mueller finds something to get him gone.

(100,150 posts)It seems like every day is worse than the day before it. I think repealing DACA might be the final straw.

(25,183 posts)It's going to be a long time before Congress even thinks about impeachment. And if the Orange One gets his way, he'll primary anyone on the GOP side that would entertain those thoughts after 2018.
As for the media using opportunities to normalize him, I've only seen that during the Harvey stuff, and frankly, because it's not like Trump to be empathetic with ordinary people, it WAS news.
