Trump-train hobo wants to jump off. Sorry, you knew where this train was going.

And while we’re at it, let’s get the old man out of the White House, too.

They ALL need to go - all the members of the Trump family, all the people they brought with them - it’s a horror show. Pence should do the right thing and resign too - after he selects a more mainstream person to be his VP. Kasich might be the least worst alternative that republicans would accept - at least he won a state during the primaries (Ohio of course). Not Cruz. Not believing that this is going to happen…not until impeachment anyway if that comes after the 2018 elections. But no generals, please.

The Rep is right, of course.
I don’t know if the Russia thing would’ve gone away if they weren’t at the WH but their presence certainly provided extra scrutiny and I think is why the issue will keep dogging Trump.

By the way, for such a person that always talks about woman empowerment, Ivanka sure stays awful close to her daddy.

That would be about the best outcome we could hope for, but Pence isn’t going anywhere. He’s deep into his preparation to become POTUS either by resignation or election when Trump doesn’t run.

Would Pence resign to challenge Trump in the primaries in 2020?

They all need to self deport.

Better do it quick. The longer he’s in there the bigger he gets; eventually you’ll need to knock a hole in the wall and use a crane.

"I’m going out on a limb here, but I would say that I think it would be in the President’s best interest if he removed all of his children from the White House. Not only Donald Trump, but Ivanka and Jared Kushner.”

Flores said that he wishes President Donald Trump “would get them out of the way” so that the administration could “have a professional staff” and focus on policy issues.

He’s good with Bannon and Miller, though.

Wouldn’t have to resign. He has an independent constitutional position. Could be fun to watch, though.

Of course he legally doesn’t have to resign, but I suspect his staying on as veep while challenging the sitting GOP POTUS would be too politically damaging to his campaign and winning the support of the party leaders across the 50 states that he would need to mount an effective challenge.

Further blowing up the party seems to only bring on more resistance, not less.

Maybe with Jared Kosher and Princess Ivanka removed from the White House, the GOP will finally see fit to remove tRump himself from office. If they are his only stabilizing force, its absurd to pretend they’re the only ones that can put Humpty Drumpfty together again when he falls…which he will do in spectacular form, if they don’t fall first.

But are they really a stabilizing factor for him? This is one dysfunctional family, long before they ever got to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. We only know that stuff, primarily from PR releases to the press about the family…not an actual working knowledge of their family psycho-dynamics. They strike me more as a family of back-stabbing survivalists, primping for the cameras like they’re on some kind of reality TV show at best. Who will be the last one standing when everyone else has been kicked off the island? I can safely say, they’re all grifters, but beyond that, its more like honor among thieves that binds them together, not models of rectitude, or trustworthiness or moral fiber. In that department they all come up empty.

Charles you ignorant slut…at least he’s finally woken up to how fucked up Donald and family are.

I saw an unposed photo of Trump from a few years ago. He was dressed in a more stylish, closer-fitting suit. What it showed is that Donald has very small shoulders, and a very large stomach. I think the oversized suits with the heavily-padded shoulders are an attempt to camouflage that (even if the jackets still won’t button). All of this, however, is OT as there are far more serious problems with the Trump presidency.

Jared is too busy climbing out of his debt sinkhole to be any kind of stabilizing force. In fact, he’s jeopardizing our long-term relations with other countries that refuse to loan him money by pushing for retaliation. He’s a thuggish, nasty little real estate heir, and he can take his wife, Great Value Gwyneth Paltrow, with him when he goes.

For Trump all business is family business. He could no more exile his kids from the White House, than Vito Corleone could have banished Sonny or Michael to legitimate businesses.

Ah, that explains the baggy suits. Fascinating.

He sounds sane. He must be a moderate.
