I'll pass over, for the time being, Nancy Pelosi's pithy observation to Trump: "All roads with you lead to Putin," as well as Mike Mulvaney's frantic pleas of "Who're you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?", for now.
Let's discuss Trump, the Reality Show. Trump isn't trying to run a government, he's trying to put on a show and scam the rubes out of their money in the process. He has to keep people's attention. So each week brings a fresh outrage and, these days, a fresh violation of the provisions of the Constitution.
He can't do anything else. He can't stop himself from saying and doing things that are going to get him impeached and, if the Republicans in the Senate can ever find their spines, convicted.
The search by Trump for more and bigger outrages is borderline insanity. He can't help himself.
Which means that, as his time in power draws to a close, one would not want to be within pistol-shot range of the man. For he's going to test out his theory that he can get away with killing someone.

You're getting there.
I have my doubts that he could successfully operate a handgun, but I've seen it done by even stupider people than him, so I wouldn't risk it.
A case could be made, given the speech he has used about them, that he has already done so with the Kurds.

Except now he’s threatening countries, and has nuclear weapons at his command...
Cornered animals are most dangerous. Best we leave him a way out. Maybe a pleasant golfing retirement in Russia, a nice summer dacha in occupied Crimea right next to Putin's and Moscow Mitch's.
I figured trump would kick it in office due to big macs, age, zero exercise, apoplectic rage and whatever Rx juice he is obviously on with the slurring, malaproprisms and loghoria. Maybe the Propecia he thinks is growing his hair.
Since trump has always been hollow the isolation and strain are visibly affecting him. And who can he turn to? He has turned against everyone, not just his country.
Nixon got drunk and talked to genocidal old Andy Jackson's portrait there toward the end.
What will trump do when caught and cracking up further, since in theory he doesn't drink? Start grabbing random pussy? Declare eternal war on Denmark? Stab somebody-since clearly guns would be beyond his ability.
His genes are strong if not his mind or body or morals and he lives on though.
His end should be interesting. If we live through it.
He may not be the teetotaler he claims to be. Remember that picture during the campaign of him eating a taco bowl on Cinco de Mayo? In the background is an open drawer with multiple boxes of the kind of Sudafed only sold in the UK.
A guy he worked with on The Apprentice claimed that he popped the UK Sudafed like candy and crushed up and snorted Adderall.
There were also allegations of cocaine and methamphetamine use, but no real substantiation of them like the Sudafed.
It was also speculated that he used the Sudafed to keep his nasal passages clear after snorting the Adderall.
He does have many characteristics of someone with elevated dopamine levels, although that is certainly not the only way one can get to such behavior.
