I was especially struck by an article today in The Atlantic.
Donald Trump Is a Lame-Duck President
There are some things about this that need to be pointed out.
First, I and a lot of people out here think this is true, unequivocally.
Second, that he is or is considered to be a "lame duck" President in not only his first term but in the first seven months of his presidency is incredible. It's stunning. It is, again, as so much of his presidency, unprecedented. Not only has this never happened before to a president at any time in his presidency but it's stunning it has become so and yet more stunning because he's done this to himself. His own actions and words and miscalculations have brought this upon him.
Third, it may well be good because his judgment is so poor on so many topics facing the nation but...
It's bad for the nation because he's not leading, he's not governing. He's not doing nor is he now able to do those things for which he was put into office. This is just one indication of what the nation can expect with this being true.
Lots of us warned about a President Trump. Lots of us warned last year. Lots of those who did warn were Republicans, too.
Now it's become true and those "chickens have come home to roost", so to speak.
We warned of a Trump presidency. We feared it. Now our fears have come true. Here are, already, some of the things that have been written and said about our nation, due to this man and his presidency.
Even people in his own political party are questioning him, if not out and out against him.
GOP senator questions Donald Trump's
stability, competence
We now fear for our nation, for our nation's strength, our nation's future.
