Impeachment doesn't happen overnight, wouldn't the GOP have to retain control of the house in 2018 for that to happen? My girl Nancy gonna be pres!

Ommmggg this is the best timeline. Not because Nancy would be good. But rather, the hatred the right has for Hilldawg pales in comparison to her.

Trump may very well be a useful idiot, but the way he's acted towards Putin in particular has always raised person suspicion that he is likewise compromised.

His entire cabinet and everyone around him, though, is absolutely dirty.

I'm looking forward to what his retaliation will be if he gets impeached. He will probably not go to jail, so he will be able to use his power as one of the rich elite to gently caress people over.

Time has a new article/interview up on Trump that took place a day before the Comey firing. It's quite something to try to wrap your head around his worldview.

http://time.com/donald-trump-after-hours/?xid=time_socialflow_twitter

He's giving reporters tours of the White House like they've never ever been given a tour before.

He's obsessed with victories and being proven right (in any way that can happen) and totally dismissive of anything negative. He's spins his own reality to match his worldview.

I don't mean to quote myself but I forgot some other choice passages. Like how Trump needs to be better than everyone in his presence, including at dinner:

quote:

The waiters know well Trump�s personal preferences. As he settles down, they bring him a Diet Coke, while the rest of us are served water, with the Vice President sitting at one end of the table. With the salad course, Trump is served what appears to be Thousand Island dressing instead of the creamy vinaigrette for his guests. When the chicken arrives, he is the only one given an extra dish of sauce. At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else.

Oh and Pence gets a fruit plate instead of pie. Weirdo.

And then, Trump brings up, on his own, that he's selling arms to an African strongman with a history of human rights abuses

quote:

He even brings up his efforts to ensure that an African leader, from a country he declines to name, can buy American military equipment despite decades-old human rights concerns.

Remember that time Merkel came to the White House and he was a big baby and wouldn't shake her hand?

quote:

He brags about the close relationships he believes he has formed with foreign leaders, complimenting Germany�s Chancellor Angela Merkel on inviting his daughter Ivanka to speak overseas.

And he got too bothered by all the requesting coming at all hours.

quote:

He even runs through the many ways he has revised the rules of engagement in the war on the Islamic State. �They keep coming to me, at weird times too,� he says of requests for approval for drone strikes and Special Forces raids in his earliest days in office.

This loving guy.

Encoding a transmission in ones and zeroes, rather than modulating/demodulating an analog signal. But I'm pretty sure those catapults use magnets.
