I think everyone (not just the advisors) feared this...

What TROUBLES ME, is he's STILL IN!!!!

In Trump’s second book, Surviving at the Top (released as Trump’s empire was crumbling under massive debt in 1990), he described his temperament in ways that wouldn’t seem to bode well for America.

“I get bored too easily, ” he wrote. “My attention span is short and probably my least favorite thing to do is to maintain the status quo. Instead of being content when everything is going fine, I start getting impatient and irritable.”

This is Trump openly admitting to being an agent of chaos and destruction.
As far as I'm concerned, placing an extreme narcissistic sociopath like Trump into a position of leadership, where his actions will have a direct affect on people's lives, constitutes a criminal act.

The economic fate and national security of America should have never been placed in the hands of a mentally impaired, and emotionally unstable demagogue, who will take a wrecking ball to anything, simply because he was bored...

It gets me mad that everybody including people in office know Trump is a lunatic. And nothing is being done about it!

[aaronburratwood.]

That’s what happens when one has a small manhood, nuke codes, & a GIANT ego.

A president who needs a colouring book to understand or get his attention....absolutely unbelievable

[shiquetamartin]

It’s sad how he has turned the country onto each other. And his followers think this ok .

The 25th amendment is a terrible thing to waste.

If this president has to be briefed the same way as a four-year-old, maybe he
shouldn’t be president.
Maybe it’s time for him to go. Now.

[lpettigrew]

He's a dangerous psychopath...in the U.S., psychopaths go to prison. Wtf

AMERICA, you should take him down. It’s an embarrassment for USA if he is still a candidate for the next election.

[MetsuNoShin]

It's incomprehensible to me how the US allows him to stay in office.
If someone doesn't do their job, usually they get fired.

[johnathandavis]

The people voting for him all need to be on a secluded island with him.

[markyouneva]

send the Trumps -- Ivanka, Eric, Don Jr, send them to fight rich people's war, not the poor people's children.

[kwuanbrinson]

In all my decades on earth I've never seen such a chaotic presidency. I pray for America.

[catherineandujar]

And yet his voters and his party still defend him,

[renewableenergysolutions]

I like Presidents who weren’t impeached

[deborahthunderhawk]

Trump's staff have to treat him like a child and use little children teaching methods, like flash cards to teach him anything.

Accidentally ??? How about deliberately, listen to what his niece is saying in her book .
