shifting of military funds to pay for the 'wall' and other things are happening too. It's going to be more and more difficult to defend the acts of this crazy and deluded president, thus more and more repugs in order to save their skins are going to defect/flee.

Obvious decline? Yes, definitely. Mad as a hatter? Yes, definitely. Crazy enough to do something really outlandish...just wait, this is most scariest of scenarios, but if this should happen, I predict a more rapid and total rout of his support. It's only a matter of time.

unless you have your head buried in the sand. The one thing I disagree with is trump having a certain charm at one time, he never did have charm back then or now.

"Stable Genius sounds pretty sane this morning huh? This melt down should be a warning to us all. This guy isn’t going out alone, suicide by nuclear bomb would in line with Trump’s m.o. Not joking-we need him stripped of powers to launch a strike. Unfit AF."
