Or he might succeed in growing into what the country needs.
But you can't possibly allow for that, can you? Your indoctrination requires you poo on an entire country rather than watch, wait, and hold him accountable. You are pathetic.
Trouble is, under the US system there's no easy way to remove your HOS/HOG if he/she becomes a major problem/quasi autocrat...
Under our Westminster system, the Head of State (either a President or the Monarch) is largely powerless... With the HOG governing only with the confidence of Parliament...
If Trump turns out to be the wartime president it appears he wants to be then, (in keeping with his narcissistic megalomania), he'd want to preside over the 'greatest war there ever was'... Any easy way to remove a president under those circumstances?
Johnson wasn't impeached for lying about the status of the Vietnam war...
Nixon wasn't impeached for being temperamentally and psychologically unsuitable to continue his presidency...
Ironically, Clinton was impeached (then acquitted in the Senate) for lying over diddling an adult... (You've got to ask where US priorities lie)...
As Noam Chomsky has suggested - 'If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged.'
See the problem?
