It's dangerous to all of us, of course, because of the power of the office of POTUS. And that sucks.

What I'm not bothered in the slightest about is that it is also dangerous to himself. Legally, financially, medically, many different ways. He's going to end up a lot worse than he otherwise would if he had thick enough skin and a strong enough spine to face reality. Hopefully the comeuppances will arrive sooner rather than later.
