  • How long will the Trump administration last?

    I could see him pulling two terms. Many good administrations including Reagans, Clintons and Obama's had rocky starts. But Trump will have to change his ways. Can he?
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

    After Trump's 2nd term, Sean Spicer (my hero) will get elected to 2 moar terms.

      He promised that he will stop tweeting and behave more presidently.
      I guess the amount of success he had with keeping those promises shows, how much he is able to change his old behaviors.

      Another index IMHO is the amount of weekends he spends with golfing, despite his own complaining about the amount of golfing of Obam (when he was PotUS)

      Trump seems to me like a person who has a hard time conrolling his habits/emotions/impulses and peferring the "easy way".


      Therefore Nope, I guess he will make one term at most (i.e. if he isn't impeached before) and will cost the republicans lots of voters

        Based upon Trumps strange view on exercise......http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/15/politi...rump-exercise/, I'd give him 2 years at most.

          would you trust him and the GOP with your money?

          they're probably gonna let Wall St gamble with it and then nail the taxpayers again with the losses like when Bush II was pissing on the country

          oh, he'll last as long as the Republicans ignore his crimes... I'm sure there's a bunch who'd prefer Pence but dont wanna risk angering Trump and his fans, and he's still quite popular with the base

            Given the current environment, I've decided to maximize my earnings and screw the rest of you. If its the will of the American voters to encourage such behavior, who am I to argue?

              No matter how long it lasts... it will feel like an eternity.

                Don't blame the working people who like to have jobs and keep what they earn for your greed.

                  RE:OP
                  My current theory is that they want a weakened Trump that they can control. I'm surprised that they still think they can control him. At some point they will get rid of him.

                      Trump will be in our memories forever as the only rightful president of everything. He'd have been crowned emperor for life already if the 'elites' hadn't established so-called democratic institutions that glorify un-American instruments like 'checks and balances'. His battle to drain this evil swamp is epic. Seven blessings on your way to victory, Donald!

                          Interesting perspective you have there.

                          Guy who was happy to pay thousands in extra taxes every year to subsidize health care for everyone else = greedy

                          Guy who voted to "keep what" he earned and tell everyone else to pay for their own health care = not greedy

                            You described yourself as greedy, not me. Now you are calling me greedy because I want people to keep their own money.
