I think it is FUBAR.
Many would like to cut Trump's Twitter feed, so that we all get out news from Fake news CNN and Facebook.

Keep Trump's Twitter feed going. That way the world can keep daily almost hourly tabs on the declining mental status of a deranged megalomaniac. Hopefully someone in Washington has the wisdom, ability and access to the levers of power necessary to crisis manage the Trump train-wreck to avert disaster before the train hits the wall.

Trump administration will 'increase risk of nuclear war' with new plans to develop smaller warheads that are less destructive and a loosening of 'first-use' constraints, experts warn

The liberal Press are just repeating history here. Have you read of the Goldwater Rule? Every one of these pathetic mental health "professionals" should lose their license and be sued for libel/slander.

Yesterday I watched two interesting news reports. In one day, two of Trump's recent outspoken critics were shamed in one day. Bannon was fired from Breitbart -- completely disgraced for his vindictive smears in some tabloid NYT "bestseller."

Trump's impressive meeting with Congressional leaders over immigration/DACA was open to the Press. He let the world see the "Art of the Deal" in progress. If he can oversee comprehensive immigration reform, Trump will be tauted as a Presidential genius. Blitzer on CNN could not contain his shock of what happened. The other Wolff, the tell-all liar, was exposed as a fraud.

I saw a very interesting interview with one of these authors who wrote a book saying that the best leaders are mentally ill and he explained why. Churchill suffered from depression, but those with this affliction are often extremely realistic. He was also able to see the threat of Hitler before others. Lincoln also suffered from mental illness.

He identified several ailments that in normal times are a liability. However, those who are manic are better able to make decisions in the midst of chaos.

Second he argues against the Goldwater rule because he feels it codifies the stigma of "mental illness". Trump is probably right -- he probably is a genius. I wouldn't call him mentally stable nor would I call him smart, but genius is probably true.

Poll: Oprah Beats Trump 48-38 with Likely Voters in 2020 Election

Got to love these polls. Yeah Hoprah!

President Barack Obama, seasoned community organizer, blasted the reality TV star, without any government experience, as “uniquely unqualified,” lacking in “basic knowledge,” zero national security experience, and “woefully unprepared” to do the job of commander-in-chief.

Yeah, a rich TV star with no experience in government would be a train wreck.

She has a great campaign slogan:

"You get a car, and you get a car, and you get a car..."

If they are violating the ethics rules of their respective professional organizations, then it's up to the organizations to enforce their rules. If they are, then speaking out is a matter of civil disobedience. If they follow their consciences to speak out because they believe the president poses a threat to the welfare and/or security of the of country even though it will have negative consequences for their livelihoods, that's patriotism.

Which means that Michael Wolff told the truth about what Bannon said. You can't have it both ways, bro.

Actually, Trump had a mental lapse in the meeting and practically gave away the farm. During the meeting on Tuesday, Trump was asked by Dianne Feinstein if he would support "a clean DACA bill." by which she meant without strings attached to Trump's wall. Trump replied "Yeah, I would like to do it." So he and his minions had to go back and correct what he said after the meeting. Some negotiator .

Said the world's most infamous liar who daily makes scandalous claims about people on Twitter with the intention of damaging their reputation. He thinks he is above the law so whatever laws he proposes won't apply to him.

Classic case of Trump Derangement Syndrome on display.

Smooth and deceitful Feinstein tried to use senate-double-speak to distort the negotiations.

Congratulations you found a dead nit.
