The Easiest Way to Get Trump out of the White House Is Through Resignation

[MineralMan]

No question about it. But how to do that? Well, it's already happening. The blow-back being blasted at Republican House members and Senators is the key. Very frankly, many of them are alarmed and frightened by its intensity. Some are afraid to even show up in their red districts. ACA and the Russian Connection are the two issues that are most frightening to them.

I believe that it will not be long, now, before some Republicans in Congress repudiate Trump's positions on those things. After all, House members will all have to stand for re-election in 2018. They're seeing the mood in their districts and are beginning to realize that they might well lose if they don't stand up for their constituents.

Trump is a fragile man. He is used to simply giving orders within his privately held companies and having them carried out with alacrity. Those who do not do what he says can be fired, so he is used to getting what he wants. That method of management doesn't work in government, really. The courts have already turned back one of his Executive Orders and said, "No, President Trump. You cannot do that." Imagine his frustration.

If the pressure being brought to bear on Republican legislators continues, some will understand that they will lose their jobs in 2018 if they don't stand up against Trump. That's why everyone needs to continue and increase the pressure on legislators. If enough of them refuse to do what Trump demands, his frustration will grow. Additional losses in federal courts will also increase the level of his frustration.

At some point, he will simply decide that it is not working out as he imagined. When that happens, he will probably make the decision to simply step away from a job he is not capable of doing. If he cannot dictate, he will quit. That's the nature of his narcissistic personality. He cannot stand not to be obeyed. So, let's not obey him, and show legislators that obeying him will cost them their seats. Losing their phony baloney jobs is their greatest fear. Simple. Difficult and time-consuming, but simple, really.

So, keep up the pressure. Don't let up for a moment. In fact increase it. Force Republicans in Congress to continue to shut down their phones and email accounts. Slam them with opposition and never slacken the pressure. Some will figure it out. Some will respond by blocking Trump's edicts. Eventually, Trump will leave.

Donald J. Trump already doesn't like his new job. Let's help him dislike it even more. Let's exhaust his patience and convince him that leaving is the better option. Let's help Donald J. Trump decide to resign.

1. Yes, lets make him run away

[greymattermom]

2. Also, there must be some clever ways to use his decision to start campaigning against him.

Such as not voting on Supreme court nominees during a campaign. There must be a lot more.

[MineralMan]

3. We do need to make sure his campaign is paying for the

costs of those campaign trips. We need to monitor that closely.

In reality, we need to keep the pressure up in all areas, from Russia and immigration to his failure to appoint key staff. He has left over 4000 appointed positions open so far, and has not named people for key staff positions that require Senate confirmation. Anything can be fodder for pressure on the White House.

Pick your issue and go for it. We should never let up on that awful man. Let's make things so uncomfortable for him and Republicans in Congress that we send a message he cannot ignore. He will quit if he sees he cannot have his way. It is that simple. Donald J. Trump MUST have his own way. Deny him that, and he will move on.

4. That day is coming: Congressional investigators will subpoena Trumpy's tax returns.

That will be the end of him. GOPers in Congress know it, but they believe that they must get their agenda through before the shit hits the fan. So the GOPers on the investigative panels are trying to slow-walk the investigations until Trumpy signs their pet bills into law. Then they'll subpoena his returns and the dominoes will begin to fall in rapid succession.

5. Exactly right...

... the only way this ends is if he feels he can leave on his term. If he's forcibly removed from office then he'll feel the victim and incite his supporters to violence.

6. Excellent observation, as usual MM - thank you - IMHO

just the threat of an investigation that would include the review of trumps taxes will surely make him head for the hills..his lawyers are probably working up a suit..

As I listen to the stories of protesting surrounding the republican town hall meetings, I am reminded this is not just about Trump - the policies still remains, republicans are pushing their agenda that closely matches trump - just that they are more subtle ...protests to remove republicans need to keep going...

The same policies are pence's & co policies....with sessions glued to the AG chair..we will remain in chaos and hate and bigotry...

As well,this steve miller guy, he is one scary dude...

7. His history is one of losing and quitting

He ran away from Vietnam and has quit to claim bankruptcy over and over. When the going gets tough he folds like a cheap lawn chair.

[MineralMan]

9. Yes. We need to encourage him to do that again.

[Gothmog]

8. Trump is not enjoying himself because there is real work involved

Trump will resign before the end of four years

[MineralMan]

10. Yes. I believe he will. I just want it to happen sooner

than later. The more pressure, the sooner he will give up and wander off.

[bluedigger]

11. Ours or his?

Maybe throw a pronoun in your title. I agree that he will most likely quit, although it may take the threat of impeachment to force him out. He doesn't like to go to trial really.
