. . . The author of Donald Trump’s problems is first and foremost Donald Trump. It’s fine to point out the excesses of the Democrats and the media. There’s certainly ample reason to criticize his staff. It’s understandable that Trump supporters think the “establishment,” the “swamp” or the “Deep State” have undermined him — because they have.But Trump is not a victim. He is the hamster spinning the wheel in the massive Rube Goldberg machine that is the spectacle of presidential dysfunction.Every few weeks, the debate about his tweeting starts again. It’s like the gun control debate. Guns are to blame! No, criminals are to blame! Guns don’t kill people, people do.It’s all nonsense. Twitter is a tool. Barack Obama had a Twitter account, too. Trump puts the bullets in the social media gun, and Trump pulls the trigger, aiming at his own foot with unerring accuracy.After every good speech, the clock restarts and the Trump train is “back on track.” Then, Trump acts like Trump again and the clock gets reset to zero. Spicer’s departure changed nothing. Firing Jeff Sessions will change nothing. Shakeups change nothing. Shake the White House snow globe all you like. The scene doesn’t change much, and when things settle down, there Trump remains, being Trump. It won’t change, because he can’t change. Character is destiny, now and forever.
He has lived in chaos all his life and cannot change. We will suffer until he is gone permanently as he will keep this up after he is no longer president.

He'll end up quitting then switching sides.
I've said it before, he'll destroy and neuter all the Conservatives in total if not the entire GOP itself - and caucus with the Democrats for the rest of his tenure for all the 'winning' he wants to be seen doing.It's what I would certainly expect from a 70 Year Old lifelong NYC Liberal Democrat who spent his life donating to and supporting the Democrats.

What if 'fixing' means business as usual? Do we want that?
It's IRRELEVANT what 'we' want.Haven't you been watching the repeal ObamaCare efforts?
Who cares how it ends as long as it shakes things up!
Even after he leaves the Presidency, Fox News will provide him a forum to speak from, in addition to Twitter.
I will say this...I quit trying to learn names and match them with positions.They are all temporary.
Stuff it, Mr. Goldberg.The "Trump White House" is doing well enough.Why don't you aim your criticism at the Republicans in Congress, who are doing next-to-nothing?
That's what kind of depresses me @Night Hides Not . This will go on and on forever.
I said when he started picking his cabinet that almost all would be gone within a year.
