'Pure madness': Dark days inside the White House as Trump shocks and ragesBy Philip Rucker, Ashley Parker and Josh Dawsey March 3 at 4:26 PM
Inside the White House, aides over the past week have described an air of anxiety and volatility with an uncontrollable commander in chief at its center.
These are the darkest days in at least half a year, they say, and they worry just how much farther President Trump and his administration may plunge into unrest and malaise before they start to recover. As one official put it: We havent bottomed out.
Retired four-star Army general Barry McCaffrey said the American people and Congress especially should be alarmed.
I think the president is starting to wobble in his emotional stability and this is not going to end well, McCaffrey said. Trumps judgment is fundamentally flawed, and the more pressure put on him and the more isolated he becomes, I think, his ability to do harm is going to increase.

The only people that can stop Twitler at this present time is his own party.
So good luck America and the world, looks like we are fucked.
Blue wave election in the fall and impeachment is our only option, I just hope Trump doesn't start nuclear war with NK or Iran before that day comes.
