Trump Is Immensely Vulnerable

The democrats keep looking for a strategy(ies) to challenge Trump. Here's a good start, IMHO.

[quote]How can Americans best defend their democracy from their president?

He's like a giant cyst that needs to be drained. Anyone have a giant pin? Don't forget to wear nose plugs. That kind of discharge reeks.

Who are the Rethugs grooming to succeed him? Even if they arrange to have a POTUS get 3 terms, he won't be in any shape to do it again. And they might just get Obama again...
