I don't get this thread - The beginning of the end? Are we talking about The Don here? I thought he'd been finished a long time ago due to Russia collusion & Stormy Daniels? I think he rode those out. Leastways, his authority wasn't significantly damaged. This time I wonder if his authority has been hit a blow that turns out to be more damaging. Hence the thread title. I don't think it matters too much for him. A lot can happen in the 2 years before elections. Republicans thought his boasts about all his sexual assaults and possible rapes were really bad until weeks later when an election was on the doorstep. Then they decided that those're ok, so long as you're a Republican. The Wall is all theatre. If he really wanted it, they would have gone for it when they controlled the House as well as the Senate & the Democrats offered a deal. Their big policy thing was the tax cuts: big cuts for billionaires, eventually tax increases for the poorest and making the debt go up by trillions so that next time the economy wobbles they can use it to justify cutting benefits for the poor again.

He's as weak as skol Lager.
Iran, N Korea and now Huawei! (China)
Now I'm not saying he should have done the things he said he would but you can only talk tough for so long without doing something before you're seen as a paper tiger.

There'd still be a deal with Iran for one. Trump killing the deal was very useful for him and for the nutters in Iran who were losing ground before as the economy picked up under more liberal policies. Now Iran can choose capitulation, escalation, or threading the needle. The hardliners (Trump in the US, people like Raisi in Iran) can use the escalation to scare people and fire up support. Typical 1984 job.

Obama drops the most bombs of any President in US history - "Wow, he's such great, kind & caring leader." The Don refuses to bow down to the war machine's agenda & refuses to go head first into conflict after conflict which would cost millions of lives - "Wow, he's such a weak leader, #FuckTrump!"

Trump and Clinton in the last 40 odd years and 6 presidents are the only ones not to bomb the shit out of another country and yet Trump is portrayed as some kind of warmongering nutter. Weird.

It's a pisser, isn't it? They don't realize that part of the reason Trump got elected is the utterly ludicrous stance that mainstream politicians have taken on various issues over the years. He, and other "populist" leaders are a reaction to that, and are more in line with the average Joe's way of looking at things.

American presidents are not as powerful as people think. The senate and HoR act as a check on a president's actions, just as our House of Lords and Commons prevents governments running riot.
When Obama entered the White House the "first" document he signed was to start the process to get rid of Guantanamo Bay detention camp, something he promised during his election campaign. After two terms in off ice, it is reduced, but still there!
Leaders are remembered for their failures, not their successes, so we have a laugh at what Trump has failed to do. Generally people's records are distorted because it's the successors who write the history. Everyone remembers Nixon for Watergate and his impeachment for lying/resignation. No one remembers that he ended the Vietnam War.

The fact is, he did stop the Vietnam war during his tenure and he opened up diplomatic ("ping-pong") relations with China which had been closed to the world. I'm not a Nixon fan, just trying to make a point that, leaders are often misrepresented by biased media and successors, etc. and not all as bad as painted.

Funny what you can find out when you widen your reading resources beyond the right wing comics isn't it.
