If you believe this, you're an idiot. But we all know you don't. If you were posting on a Trump board, you'd be telling them why he's f*cked.
Look at the chessboard.

Trump cannot be taken out of office except through political means. We all agree on that. You think the GOP will turn on him. I don't think so.

He's got two more years. I don't think he's running for a second term. He can game this out for the duration, declare victory, and walk off.

When you talk to average people about Trump, it's always the same exact story: "I hate him, but I like what he's doing with the economy." Granted, it's not all his doing. It's Obama's and Bernanke's economy much more than it's Trump's. But he's getting the credit nevertheless.

In flyoverland, Trump is quite popular.

You'd start a goddamn civil war if you threw Trump out of office. No party is going to risk that. And he won't go like Nixon. He'll go down shredding the social and political fabric of the nation.

So no, I wouldn't go on a Trump board and tell people he's fucked. I'd tell them he's a bigoted moron, and that they're suckers to support him because he's transferring $$$ to Hillary's voters on their backs.
