In reply to the discussion: DONALD TRUMP IS BEING WARNED BY ADVISERS ABOUT IMPEACHMENT [View all]Warpy
(111,245 posts)32. He never had any interest in doing the job
He wanted to spite Obama for the Correspondents' Club Dinner; he wanted to get rid of all sorts of rules and regulations because he doesn't like them and wants to cut corners; he wanted to get the Russians off his back by paying Putin with political favors; and most of all, he wanted the spotlight. Governing? B0-RING.
I think the light turnout and early departure of the crowd that did show up in Phoenix has shaken him to his malignant narcissist soul, er, open sore. That's the only reason he's not firing anybody who's trying to tell him to shape up.
Just give him a few days, though, he'll be back on his phone in the wee hours.

He only ever cared about winning, and now that he's won, I agree "he doesn't care" about the job. nt

This seems more of an opinion/analysis piece and might be better in General rather than here in LBN.

I've noticed he's attempting to be more "presidential" since getting rid of Bannon.

Don't think this article is true. Why would they warn him about something Repubs won't do?

Exactly. At this point it would be political suicide for an R to move against Trump

They should warn him not to jump off the roof for all the mind he pays them. nt
