US Politics - Trump cancels summit having to do with North Korea

Taking that off him would hurt more than anything.

The only two to be impeached (Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton) were acquitted by the Senate so I am not sure if anybody knows that.

I'd imagine it would be a situation where the entire world stops calling him President, but he will refer to himself as President forever.

I think he'd probably resign if it got to that stage. He'd definitely get to keep his title in that case.

I was wondering about that the other day. Nixon resigned to avoid being thrown out of office, but would Trump’s ego allow him to? In his head he would be thinking “I am smarter than them all, the smartest, they would never rule against me. I am making America great again, it’s SAD that anybody thinks they can throw me out. I can beat them. I will show them. Hilary’s emails! Sad! I am tremendous! I will win!”

Saw this on CNN last night, pretty interesting look into the mind of Trump:

He's tweeting again:

twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/865169927644340224

The one thing I don't understand is why they haven't taken his phone off of him.

He's surrounded by yes men, and people are afraid to tell him what to do. According to White House sources, it seems they try to divert his attention to other (generally more Trump-positive) things instead.

Rllmuk says he's got a press conference today as well

Typical

Fox News has a scary amount of influence over him.

Republican congressman (and probable loser in next year's midterms) Darrell Issa ordered the IRS to watch conservative and liberal groups more closely, an action entirely within their remit anyway.

Not sure about F&F though, but that seems like small potatoes compared to Comrade Trumpski's Gotten To Adventureland.

The other day he said no politician had ever been treated as badly as he had been. Which resulted in a hell of a lot of people pointing out the assassinated Presidents.

Now he is claiming it is the greatest witch hunt, despite (as you said) he himself being one of the main proponents of the ridiculous birther witch hunts.

Oh s*** Trump is pished as FOOK over the special counsel....excellent stuff.

MSNBC is also beating Fox News in ratings at the moment which is unheard of, essentially because Fox are ignoring the sh*t storm that's happening at the moment.

I liked this sum up of events from a person on rllmuk

"well beyond his capacity to understand and outside of his capability to control"

Roger Ailes has died
