the Washington Examiner, supoosedly to talk about national security matters.
Mike Pence's travel schedule has been altered to cancel his international travel and public speaking engagements.
There is some speculation this weekend that the generals and everyone will talk trump into retiring since he hates living in DC, blah blah, blah. (Pray true.)
But we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves because if it gets out that we think he's quitting, he won't.

I also heard that the Hope Hicks promotion to Comm Dir. is temporary because no one will take the job.

(17,006 posts)for single handedly trying to destroy the Republican Party. It's too late. There is too much historical data showing that Twitler was always a racist. They knew it and backed him anyway. They own this.

(61,695 posts)Most of the CEOs on his two councils have rejected him. He had to "fire" them before the humiliation became an epic Wall Street Journal article.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff have voluntarily and independently disavowed his comments. They won't play war games with him anymore, I bet.
Newer hosts on Fox News are gobsmacked and critical.
Everyone knows that Gen. Kelly is babysitting the spoiled, ignorant, tantrumming naked prince.
He can't find anyone to take the Communications Director job except the other woman he's sleeping with. A reporter on Thom Hartmann's show today said that a reporter she knows was asked to take the job, but he/she refused because trump is radioactive. She wouldn't name the person, but had permission to tell the story.
His own grown kids have been oddly silent throughout this.
I think they are going to talk about the Mueller investigation and that it might go away if he quits.

(21,786 posts)since the situation in Afghanistan, to my knowledge, anyway, hasn't altered significantly enough that a decision has to be made NOW; there isn't sufficient urgency to require recalling Pence immediately. It's nothing that couldn't have waited until Monday, anyway. Although Pence DOES need to be present if they're going to pull the 25th Amendment on Trump or force him to resign; taking him somewhere secluded like Camp David and presenting him with an already-printed-out letter of resignation and a pen, and a threat to use the 25th/resign en masse if he doesn't comply, would be a way to do it.
