All Things Trump: Is it over yet?

well, you can bet he'll manage to make gross breach of protocol, and you can bet they'll just act like they hadn't seen a thing.

Oh man, can you imagine travelling with this guy?

Inside Trump's Air Force One: 'It's like being held captive'

When Trump first took office, staffers clamored to travel on overseas trips. But now, in the third year of his presidency, several officials said they do their best to avoid staffing the trips because of the chaotic nature that typically accompanies them.

During international flights, Trump typically remains in the front cabin. He does four things, the current and former aides said: eats, watches television or reads newspapers, talks with staff and calls friends and allies back home as he zips away into foreign skies.

Trump will spend hours reviewing cable news coverage recorded on a TiVo-like device or sifting through cardboard boxes of newspapers and magazines that have been lugged aboard. He'll summon sleeping staffers to his office at moments the rest of the plane is dark, impatient to discuss his upcoming meetings or devise a response to something he saw in the media.

Trump has long insisted that he is treated unfairly by the news media, and if he sees something on television that bothers him -- "which he invariably will," one official quipped -- he instructs his staff to fix it, no matter if they are at the White House or flying over the Atlantic Ocean. Often, instead of looking over his remarks for upcoming bilateral meetings or paging through a briefing book, the President will fixate on the negative headline that day, griping that none of his predecessors has been through such treatment.

Once, when a staffer went to catch a few hours of shut-eye before landing, the President sent another aide to come wake them so he could discuss a matter that was on his mind.

"He will not go to sleep," said one person.

I'd spike his drink.

I suspect his staff would rather use Melatonin or Valerian root. Trump gets far too little sleep for a guy his age. That's sometimes associated with dementia, IIRC.

[Svartalf]

unless he's REALLY sensitive to what he takes in, I suspect the substances you mention will have little, effect on him, I'd say likely none at all.

Certainly. Abe, who is a nationalist and has been pushing a sort of 'Make Japan Great Again' agenda of his own, has been avidly kissing Trump's enormous flabby backside since Trump got into the White House. It will be all smiles and deep bows, regardless of Trump's behavior.

'Trump’s Public Enemies List Is an Impeachable Offense'

Yeahbut it's not illegal for a US president to accuse people he doesn't like and his political opponents of treason then weaponize the Department of Justice to threaten and harass them, nor for an Attorney General of the United States to enable and further such an agenda. People with Trump Derangement Syndrome get all exercised over nothing. Trump is only defending himself against the Deep State, after all.

[Tero]

He's going to weaponize the Dept of Justice to destroy the FBI.

[pErvinalia]

This is one poll that bacon wouldn't win.

The proctology boys!

Yeah, money can do a lot, but
