I always kind of felt that once the tax bill got passed and then the midterms that the republicans would turn on Trump....so maybe this is the Canary in the coal mine...and for once I guessed correctly??....

@fun4us2b don't hold your breath! further, it is almost impossible to get rid of him. take a look at the list of successors, each is at least as bad, if not worse. does anyone really believe that he can be convinced to resign? anyone want to guess how many votes there are to impeach him in the house, let alone convict in the senate? mitch and his men had their chance once, they blew it!

@samueltyler2 I don't think he'll resign, but I also think he'll become somewhat a lame duck and republicans will distance themselves from him.

@fun4us2b from your lips s to God's ears. Name a single republican congressman who came out saying that his call to hang those who went on record to remind the members of the military that they have an ethical and legal responsibility to refuse to follow an illegal order? When asked directly about whether he has it would order the military to. Shoot protestors,.the Sec of Defense fudged the question, refusing to answer it! When a reporter posted a similar question of POTUS he attacked the reporter rather than answer the question.
