Wide awake in fact. You must be talking about his minions.

info--but Trump supporters are cultists, so they really would continue to support him even if he shot someone on Fifth Avenue.

He's totally clueless and he has a bunch of wackadoodles around him in the White House. He already botched a raid that got a SEAL, and a bunch of innocents killed, and he ordered the raid in part based on a 10 year old Youtube video he had seen.

He's weakening the country every day he is in office. Russia isn't the only one who is currently taking advantage. There will be a huge terror attack because he's so poisoned the intelligence community against him. He won't see it coming and then he'll blame it on Obama.

terrorist attack like 9/11 would only give Trump the excuse to overthrow the rule of law and the constitution, ignore court rulings, and persecute us "snowflakes" as being disloyal Americans.

"Lock her up" would now refer to any liberal that expresses any concern about the loss of liberty and the media would be the first casualty.

I am certain that Bannon is planning this.

I will not get a chance due to the ridicule and constant insults I provide free of charge. I was hoping they would strike the first blow.

A major disaster engineered by Trump should not be that far away after all he has had four weeks.

Picture the largest ship in the ocean without a captain or crew. How long before pirates discover this and decide to strip and sink it? Putin and Bibi already have, but it will become a feeding frenzy before long.

There are still die-hard George W. Bush fans who refuse to admit that his breezy dismissal of the seriousness of the Osama Bin Laden situation failed to prevent the 9/11 attacks a month later.

Trump was right when he said he could shoot someone in broad daylight on 5th Avenue in New York, and people would still support him.
