Unpresidented?

It's a sad day when a takeover by the military looks like the least worst option for the world's most powerful democracy.

That's military discipline for you

What a good way to be wrong, though.
He was escorted out of the White House. I wonder what they thought he was going to do!

dj, you were wrong! It's only ten days!

He couldn't do the fandango....and its second meaning is 'tomfoolery'....

He'll be getting his practice in now!

Definitely, AlieOxon.
I suppose when he gets sacked in two months time, he'll be a shoe-in for American Strictly.

dj that must explain the dancing connection!

Really M0nica? That explains a lot!

He's chosen a brilliant replacement for his communications chief, someone who can't decide whose side he is on.

I think it is the Botox. He can't move any facial muscles.

If the man had just a smidgeon of a sense of humour I could pardon a lot of his madness.
But he's so smug serious self-satisfied.

How much longer can he continue? He's had more staff sacked/replaced/resigned than any other POTUS. And in such a short space of time too. Surely he can't go on much longer without him being impeached? And why does he always wear that peculiar "hard stare" facial expression when he meets anyone. Does he think it gives him gravitas? What a fool.

I'm still in the stunned and astounded group on the Trump front. When I heard this latest bit of skullduggery, I was back in the "I'm living in a Batman movie". I realise I can't be because the Caped Crusader would have engineered the downfall of this arch villain before now.

Annodomini I initially misread your "deification" for "defaecation" and thought you were being a bit harsh but on the other hand......

I haven't really looked st this but apparently he can pardon anyone. So that's his family off the hook. But I can't really believe that if they are guilty of a criminal act they will not be punished in some way. It is all bizarre.

I know just what I'd like Trump to do to himself, and it isn't a pardon?

Isn't that asking someone else to pardon you?

Pardon me?

Wel, you coud phrase it something like 'I pardon myself for any perceived wrongdoing...'

If someone pardons themselves doesn't that rather admit to having done something wrong

It is the sovereign right of a government to forgive..., not a President

However:
www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-40696682 .....

"Leaders of both parties in the US Congress have agreed on legislation that allows fresh sanctions to punish Russia for alleged election meddling.

The new legislation would also sharply limit President Donald Trump's ability to lift any sanctions against Russia."

Scaramucci, Scaramucci, can you do the fandango?

They all need to dance around trump, don't they?

Berlusconi was constantly changing laws in Italy to try and keep himself out of prison too.

US Law:
"General pardon is usually recognized for political offenses. It is the sovereign right of a government forgiving certain classes of persons who are subject to trial. The government officially grants general pardon and exempts political offenders from conviction."
