He's 77. The hair is more real than Donald's, but do you think people will vote for an 80-year-old candidate? I know he is in shape, but still.
 
Interesting splitting....

McConnell, in Private, Doubts if Trump Can Save Presidency: Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, has fumed over President Trump’s regular threats against fellow Republicans and criticism of Senate rules.

LINK: McConnell, in Private, Doubts if Trump Can Save Presidency
TEXT Excerpt: "The relationship between President Trump and Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, has disintegrated to the point that they have not spoken to each other in weeks, and Mr. McConnell has privately expressed uncertainty that Mr. Trump will be able to salvage his administration after a series of summer crises.

"What was once an uneasy governing alliance has curdled into a feud of mutual resentment and sometimes outright hostility, complicated by the position of Mr. McConnell’s wife, Elaine L. Chao, in Mr. Trump’s cabinet, according to more than a dozen people briefed on their imperiled partnership. Angry phone calls and private badmouthing have devolved into open conflict, with the president threatening to oppose Republican senators who cross him, and Mr. McConnell mobilizing to their defense.

"The rupture between Mr. Trump and Mr. McConnell comes at a highly perilous moment for Republicans, who face a number of urgent deadlines when they return to Washington next month. Congress must approve new spending measures and raise the statutory limit on government borrowing within weeks of reconvening, and Republicans are hoping to push through an elaborate rewrite of the federal tax code. There is scant room for legislative error on any front.

"A protracted government shutdown or a default on sovereign debt could be disastrous — for the economy and for the party that controls the White House and both chambers of Congress.

"Yet Mr. Trump and Mr. McConnell are locked in a political cold war. Neither man would comment for this story. Don Stewart, a spokesman for Mr. McConnell, noted that the senator and the president had 'shared goals,' and pointed to 'tax reform, infrastructure, funding the government, not defaulting on the debt, passing the defense authorization bill.' "

Bottom of the barrel ? Early-onset dementia seems to be the verdict.

Now Ana Navarro, a Republican strategist who broke ranks and endorsed Hillary Clinton last year, tweeted the only “possible defensible explanation for Trump’s disgusting, unpresidential, narcissistic behaviour, would be early-onset dementia”.

No brainer that this 6 month saga will end soon. Hopefully not with the nuclear football.

Just how truly insane it all is. Pretty bad.

TRUMP GOES OFF-SCRIPT IN HOUR-LONG PUBLIC MELTDOWN
Trump explained that the biggest victim in the Charlottesville violence last weekend was, in fact, himself.

If anyone has any clue as to what Trump rambled about please let me know

The Trump - Aladdin Connection

People still haven't locked on to the little-known Trump - Aladdin Connection, which if true explains a lot about why Trump is constantly making seemingly inexplicable comments in the media.

According to a video I was watching about the rise of Trump prior to his being elected, he had become involved with the Aladdin investment platform, which is a huge supercomputer operated by BlackRock Investment Management Corporation that predicts how markets will respond to literally millions of data points, including news items. It is fed by news feeds and monitors Twitter and TV and virtually all media for indicators that can cause small changes in investment value that can be exploited by those who have invested in the system. To quote:

"And through its big data-mining risk platform, Aladdin, or Asset Liability and Debt and Derivatives Investment Network, BlackRock says it has developed the market’s most highly evolved framework for stress-testing how securities will respond to certain situations — such as a sudden rise in interest rates or what happens in the event of a political surprise, like Donald J. Trump being elected president.

Staffed by 2,300 of BlackRock’s 13,000 employees, Aladdin promises to help firms trade, analyze and keep a compliant eye on the assets they manage. In an era of severe regulatory scrutiny, the service has become quite popular. Seventy-five firms — including Deutsche Bank’s asset management unit and Freddie Mac — managing a total of $10 trillion, now use it. "

And Coincidentally ( or otherwise );

"On Friday, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America Corp. reported generally positive fourth-quarter earnings, with debt-trading revenues surging amid volatility after Donald Trump's election as next U.S. president. BlackRock Inc., on the other hand, reported a mere 1 percent rise in revenue, below analysts' estimates, despite receiving piles of new money from investors." ( Source )

Now consider that Trump has a team of advisors who study how various keywords in the media are going to affect the Aladdin Platform, and that Trump is invested in that same system, and is also President. It seems to me there's a huge conflict of interest going on there that nobody has picked-up on. It seems entirely possible, if not likely, that Trump's media bombs are designed specifically to affect how his trades will behave, and that's very interesting in light of the firing of the person who was looking into Trump's financial dealings.

That corrupted billionaire should have been out a few months ago. I predict he'll be given the chance to resign just about a week before the Mueller investigation completes. If he refuses he'll be in a position to trigger something close to a civil war with his tweets.... But then you've got Bannon and Breitbart in the background about to stab Trump and family in the back (especially Jared Kushner and Ivanka) and refocusing Trumps alt-right base. Bottom of the trash can back stabbings if you ask me.

By the looks of it, having 'rose-colored glasses' Mike Pence as president won't change much as far as supremacist views are concerned :eek:
Mike Pence Compares Donald Trump to Teddy Roosevelt

Vice President Mike Pence compared his boss to Teddy Roosevelt during a visit to the Panama Canal Thursday, saying the two shared a "can-do spirit" at a time when Trump has been widely criticized for his response to the violent white nationalist rallies in Charlottesville.

"In President Donald Trump, I think the United States once again has a president whose vision, energy and can-do spirit is reminiscent of President Teddy Roosevelt," Pence said, the Chicago Tribune reports. "Then, as now, we have a builder of boundless optimism, who seeks to usher in a new era of shared prosperity all across this new world."

While Pence invoked some of the admirable presidential qualities Roosevelt was known for, Roosevelt also called whites "the forward race" and minorities "the backward race." The latter is a fraught comparison as Trump is under fire for saying there was "blame on both sides" for the violence in Charlottesville and taking two days to explicitly condemn white supremacists.

Trump's last hope is removing Robert Mueller but this would be the equivalent of destroying a 'checks and balances' freedom of speech (Press) democracy and installing a dictatorship regime which would be compatible with Trump.
