The wheels have come off and Donald Trump just got run over
As of right now the United States has no Secretary of Defense, no White House Chief of Staff, no Attorney General, no one is sure who’s running the Department of Justice, the stock market is crashing, and the federal government is on the verge of being shut down entirely. America is in crisis. Donald Trump is probably hiding in the bathroom, vomiting profusely, and realizing that his life is over as he knows it.
Even MSNBC, which usually takes the position that the Donald Trump era is going to last forever, is now talking about how the “wheels have come off” and is discussing how the 25th Amendment works. Even Trump’s biggest cheerleader these days, Lindsey Graham, is publicly reading Trump the riot act over the Putin-themed Syria pullout. Even the Senate Republicans seem to be at their wit’s end now that Trump has pushed out Secretary of Defense James Mattis.
The DJIA was down nearly five hundred points today, and it’s lost four thousand points in the past two months. Investors have clearly given up on Donald Trump and are headed for the exits. Neither political party wants to shut the government down, but Trump’s weak waffling today is on the verge of forcing a shutdown anyway.
Everything is going wrong for Donald Trump that can possibly go wrong. He’s so far removed from any semblance of having control over the situation or his own fate, he might as well be wearing handcuffs already. The wheels have come off, and Trump just got run over. All that’s left for him is to decide if he wants to negotiate a resignation deal in return for reduced criminal charges, or if he wants to drag this out a bit longer, thus ensuring he’ll spend the entire rest of his life in prison.
