Micheal Cohen is a better man than the GOP lawmakers who defend Trump

Trump is going down and then the indisputable truth will come flooding out.

Cohen will be remembered as the man who was on the right side of history (albeit to help himself).

The sycophantic GOP lawmakers will be remembered as unprincipled scumbags who sold out America.

Should Prince Harry have abdicated after wearing a Nazi costume to a party?

I say yes. Never been a fan of the British royal family anyway.

Media fuming over Northam, but where's any outrage over Governors who refused to expand Medicaid?

In my state alone, over half a million people don't have health care that should do.

Never, do we hear the same kind of outrage over people dying in the wealthiest nation on the planet because their governor has rejected Medicaid expansion.

This isn't even a double standard. There is no standard. Yes, he needs to go, but when is the media going to give a damn about policy and how policy affects lives?

Has Trump now entered a death spiral of bad polls and self-inflicted negative media stories?

I don't see how he can come back from this. What he has done to this country will take decades to put right, but increasingly the consequences are already being felt and more and more people are waking up to it.

What Trump could do to save face, screw Democrats and improve his polling

All he needs to say today is that Democrats have already agreed to another billion dollars, which he can claim shows a lack of understanding of the importance of border security, and he will sign a bill if they now meet him halfway, ie., at 4 billion, and continue negotiations to get the full amount he wants after the government reopens. That will then make Democrats look like they won't budge and are responsible for not ending shutdown if we don't agree.

Please tell me the best way to trash Trump to a MAGA in 30 seconds

I often meet Trump supporters. I married into a Republican family. Not that they are all Trumpers, but those who are, including friends of the family, think he is the best thing since sliced bread and all other views are fake news.

Conversations about Trump seem to be short, or short-tempered, because they have no facts, other than claiming he is making America great, Obama was terrible, and he is probably going to go down in history as the best president ever. I have learnt that they will not engage in a fact-based discussion, but I do sometimes get a chance to say what I think is wrong with the Trump presidency before things break down into insults and shouting.

If you were in this situation and you have a thirty second window to make your point, what would you say? What is the most powerful argument you can make against Trump in thirty seconds? I am not asking if I should bother or not, but I am asking for your advice in giving the strongest critique of Trump in no more than thirty seconds.
