That’s opinion, of course, but it seems to me to be a reasonable conclusion. yes, but the question is, since the American electorate chose him, how the fork do we get rid of him? ---

**Moderator Action** I think the OP has been answered factually about as well as it can be. Since this thread is drifting way outside of the factual bounds of GQ, I am just going to close this. Anyone who wishes to voice their opinions about the current administration is free to do so in a more appropriate forum. This is also a reminder to all that threads in GQ, even when they concern the current administration, need to remain factual. GQ is not the appropriate forum for political opinions. Thread closed.
