In reply to the discussion: Trump Tells Aides He Has Decided to Remove Stephen Bannon [View all]BlueAZure
(19 posts)I came to this conclusion some time ago, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this assessment, but now that it seems its coming true, I wanted to share.
For the rest of his time in office, Trump will take credit for anything that might be positive that happens on his watch, even if he had nothing to do with it. Even if he was against it, he will pretend that it was really his idea. However, anything negative that happens, he will either claim that its actually a good thing or blame someone else, or perhaps try the first and then fall back on the second.
He will continue to flail about with no particular direction, claiming that everyone else is against him, that the Mueller investigation is a Witch Hunt, and that hes the victim of the Deep State, who wants him out.
He may, in fact, fire Mueller, Sessions, or anyone else who doesnt show sufficient loyalty. Loyalty to Trump, that is, not loyalty to the nation.
If he lasts long enough, he may start a war, though after China said it will come to Pyongyangs aid if they are preemptively attacked, I doubt it will be with North Korea. (No bets on that one.)
In the end, as his support dwindles to the most hard-core of the hard-core of his supporters (who themselves will just become even more entrenched), he will resign before he can be impeached, pardon his entire family and a number of close allies (both inside and outside of the government), and most likely himself as well.
