Now they know that Trumpy dismisses them, has no use for them.

People are waking up and mobilizing. We have to keep fighting and build on each victory. There is good momentum and energy but we have to sustain it.

I think at one point he said he would be the most "winningest" President. just Google "donald trump so much winning" and you can get a video of #45 boasting.

There's winning going on. And in the right places too. I am not tired of all this winning. We're going to keep on winning and winning and #45's ass is going to be kicked out the door (electorally speaking) in 2020. Or maybe before.

He doesn't want to resign because that would be an admission of guilt.

He doesn't want to be impeached because Bill Clinton was impeached.

He doesn't want to be drubbed out by the 25th Amendment because in his more rational moments he fears he might be losing his "edge". But he can't help himself when he tweets and when he rambles.

He's tired. A luxurious plane trip to the Middle East has exhausted him and he has really important obligations yet to come on the trip that even he recognizes as important.

He's lonely. He can't grab pussy anymore without a huge scandal blowing up in his face.

Being in the spotlight constantly has exposed the cracks in his marriage. He can't find solace with Melania, who is avoiding him, except when protocol requires it or when keeping up appearances is unavoidable.

He's trapped.

DesMarais is the first Democrat ever elected to a House seat in Wolfeboro.

Technically she is also the first state flip from red to blue by about 3 hours
