By doing what kind of action will Donald Trump, in say, the next two weeks (not) surprise you?

Asked by rebbel (35547points) July 31st, 2017

I would, sincerely, not be surprised if, between now and the near future, he is going to fire himself.
And subsequently stay on.
Because he can.
Apart from declaring war to North, or South Korea, what say you he’s gonna do next?

He would surprise me if he suddenly began acting like a mature adult and not like a high school punk.

He wouldn’t surprise me if he continues to insult and threaten world leaders.

One or all of the following (and more) will do him in: His ethics violations, his bull-in-china-shop global decisions, the inability to keep his wildly idiotic promises, AND his thin skin. Thus, I will not be surprised to see him resign when (even before) impeachment proceedings begin, as I believe they surely will. I have predicted this since he was elected.

Convince Canada to install a missle defence system.

It would not surprise me if he bombed North Korea.

I have reached a point of not caring. I have already wasted too much negative energy on this moron. Personally, ( here comes that Coloma spice ) I wish he would just drop dead in his tracks, the victim of a massive stroke from the amount of egoic pressure encased his his thick cranium. I’d say heart attack but her doesn’t have a heart. LOL

The other day he sent out this tweet:
“After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow…...”

That remained uncompleted for 9 minutes. 9 minutes later, Trump continued his tweet:

”....Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming….”

Then finished:

”....victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you”

My point is that during the silence between the first and second tweets, the Pentagon was freaking out! They weren’t sure or not if this was connected to North Korea.
It was reckless.

To answer the OP, I expect Trump to fire Sessions.

@filmfann Maybe the 9 minute break was to look up how to spell transgender?

He might want to get rid of that Kelly guy again.

rebbel's avatar

The scary thing, @filmfann, is, that I believe that those 9 minutes were intentional (to scare high ranked people who serve under him).
Revealing his twisted mind.

In the National interest Twitter should inactivate his account.!!

It really wouldn’t surprise me if both Kelly and Kellyanne are gone soon.

I won’t be surprised at all if he purposefully causes instability in the private healthcare exchange by ending the cost sharing reduction payments. I just hope people will be informed enough to realize that it will be his fault and not the fault of the ACA as designed if this happens.

Fires Kelly and fires Session, forms his own secret police.

Make a proposal to the Discovery Channel for his new reality show, “Celebrity Chief Executive”.

I think @Mariah has the gist of what Trump is likely to do. For all of his bluster, Trump is in the main a bully, and prone to kick those most vulnerable. You know the drill. Mexican rapists, terrorist refugees, transgender soldiers. And where better to work real mischief than torpedo the healthcare of those most in need and least able to afford it.

@Mariah Ding, ding, ding. He’s already threatened that yesterday. Says he’s going to do that if the senate doesn’t go back and repeal the ACA. He needs it gone. His Russia plans are killed and he needs to get rid of healthcare so that he can give his rich supporters the huge tax breaks he promised.

He’s been threatening it for weeks. Scares the pants off of me. The healthcare bills that have been going through Congress have been scary too, but at least they require at least 51 relatively sane people to agree upon something. This one is all in the hands of Trump. He has no conscience and will not care if his actions kill people.
