The Trumpocalypse

Well, here we are, more than three quarters of a year into the utter shitshow that is #donaldtrump's presidency and what can we say.
He has exceeded in every way possible our worst predictions and done so with a form of manic intensity that horrifies sane onlookers.
Those who thought he might "settle down" once he became president were proven wrong almost immediately and those members of the press that search in vain for any sign of gravitas from him must surely give up any hope.
He will continue to react in the worst knee-jerk manner to anyone who attacks him and he may even turn against the Republican party if they decide not to back him on the Iran nuclear situation.
I have to admit that at this point, I would love to see the bunfight that would break out were that to happen.
And then there's the Korea problem. I't pretty clear that they have read Trump like a book (probably one of those ones for toddlers with the woven pages) and are playing him like a badly made, gold plated fiddle.
I only hope the finale doesn't come with bright flashes, this won't be any 1812 overture.
