He’ll just tweet one morning that he has fired Pence.
Moscow Mitch will fall right in line, as will the rest of the spineless toads that form the scummy remnants of the Republican Party.
Pence will then dutifully quit, as his master has ordered him to.
Job Done.

Or just dump him from the ticket.
Looks like the Trumpster is going to hold the next G7 summit at his bedbug palace in South Florida.
Is anyone going to stand up to this and just say “no?”
Moscow Mitch will say
“Thank you sir! May I have another!”
I’m waiting for Trump to demand tribute from his people. There will be a special day where everyone will file past the local Trump Statue, and pile up “gifts” for Dear Leader.

It’s just openly corrupt now.
We’ve reached the phase of “So what, fuck you, I’ll do whatever I want.”
Well, shit. President Cartman.

Mulvaney implied in his press conference today that this was nothing because Trump’s brand is strong.
Apparently meaning that sure, Trump will make money from this, but golly, that guy’s got so much money already that this is small potatoes.
(If he meant anything else, he didn’t feel like stating so.)

He means that Trump’s brand is strong with the MAGAcult. It’s understood by Trump acolytes.
I heard something about Individual 1 planning on inviting Putin to the G7 at Doral, despite the other members having voted to kick them out.
It was Melania’s idea to have FPT take Vlad as his plus one.
JRDelirious:
Yeah, say what you will of ol’ Boris he was no coward.
**He **did let the country go to pot and opened the way for Putin, though. So indeed, the fear is that after orangefool, THEN will come an actually competent strongman and then we will be really screwed.
Who does the bolded pronoun refer to?

I think they call those iron maidens, but I’m all for it.
“How much can I gaslight the American public? This much!”

Con men just can’t resist the temptation of an easy mark. He saw a pile of cash that he could have just with a wave of the hand so of course he’s going to take it. I’d love for the world leaders to stay at the closest hotel and Uber in every day.
Trump insults his own former SECDEF, who pushes back and quotes Lincoln into the bargain: Mattis Takes Swipe At Trump: 'I Earned My Spurs On The Battlefield' : NPR
There are some great burns in that speech. And some good serious lines apart from the jokes:

“Anarchy is one potential consequence of all this. The other is the rise of an ambitious leader, unfettered by conscience, or precedent or decency, who would make himself supreme,”
