You know, it's almost like we should not have told him, like 15 minutes ago, that it's fine to use or threaten to use the powers of the office and the executive branch in furtherance of electoral gain.

...if the president thinks it's in the country's best interest...what would stop the president from withholding federal disaster assistance to a city, until the mayor was willing to do his bidding...

And yet, this doesn’t matter to even four of the 53, and/or one of the nine, who can stop this insanity.

It's pretty amazing just how much damage this administration has done to the infrastructure of our government.
People who still lean on the "lesser of two evils" shtick have apparently stopped keeping track of the disgusting things that Trump is actually doing.
The government infrastructure needed some damage and deletion. Im just not sure he's hitting the right parts.
Yes, it does. But I don't feel like Trump's approach of souring the nation on our own government and then napalming entire sections of it so that only corporations and stockholders benefit from the change is the right approach. It appeals to the "Burn It The Fuck Down" crowd, as well as corporate owners and shareholders.
Like Trump's handling of Obamacare, he's just destroying stuff with no real plan to improve anything. Just fattening his wallet, trying to make other rich people happy with him, all while chumming the waters and poisoning the average American figuratively with his rhetoric and literally with his destruction of clean air, clean water and clean earth policies.
The surgical sledgehammer is rarely the best approach.

you forgot to include his obsession to undo anything with Obama’s name attached, actual repercussions be damned
