[FRIAM] 2019 - The end of Trumpism

[Gillian Densmore]

FWIW the RNC's media department on twitter has said they're "considering"
declaring Donald unfit for 'his current position' . One can only guess
when/If they'll make good .  I didn't even know it was a thing that thing
the can do.
I have ton of concerns about this whole mess....my uncomplicated mind
thinks: oook if the health and well being of countery leads to a lot of
really amazing things sometimes. What's the question? If someone simply
can't do a job (POTUS or otherwise) why should their be any shame at all in
them saying: oh well mea culpa turns out I can't actually run a company or
nonproffit or what ever.
Personally i think it's a good thing for people to try then say: well turns
out I can't after all let me find  someone that can. On the practical side
you tried then found out well simply don't have skills  to do so. That's
awesome.
Not so much to keep saying but but I can see that dumpster fire actually is
just a dumpster with a built in incinerator unit yeah that's it! it was a
undocumented feature or what ever.
I just don't get why the GOP can't (or won't ) tell donald: either you can
step down saying that, or we'll as gamers say: vote to kick you out. Your
call. Only instead of a vote to kick  it's  a vote of noconfidence, or a
disastrously terrible job review (impeachment) or being arrested (turns out
that's a thing now ).
Question: For people in parliamentarian countries  is it culture thing when
a PM says; quits sighting They can't actually fix or run the parliament. .
For example . Recently that was why Austria and Aultrillia had 5? PM's in a
scant' 12 month period.

Genuinely curious!
