I tend to believe that he should be gone because he is flat out incompetent in the job. I don't think anybody can argue that point. The Religious right, of course, love him for his ability to sign virtually anything they put in front of him and that's enough for them. The others, that support him, do that, it seems, because they fear his wrath. He has consistently proven he is a disaster for the country. For instance, according to just about everybody he has winnowed any allies to a very few un-democratic entities. The recent spat with Iran is just yet another example. We are gifted with evidence of his incompetence every day of his tenure, as is the rest of the world. The simple fact is that by the time his tenure is over the entire country will probably breath a sigh of relief from worry about their own survival.
He has also proven that the current Republican/Trump party is represented, in congress, by a bunch of toadies, fellow incompetents, self serving folks completely unable to actually do their jobs for the nation. A good example are the 400+ pieces of legislation, passed by the house and sent to the senate that the senate has chosen to not only not pass but not even vote on! This, whilst the president refers to the Democrats as the Do Nothing Democrats and the only Democrat that even bothers to mention that damned lie is Pelosi and very few others. This, I suspect, does not actually help the Democrats as they too have some kind of other problem wherein they would rather fight with each other than to actually go after the president with any consistency. That being said they have, at least, Impeached which is something. However, that being said, the obvious inability of the Democrats to actually stand up, as a group, with consistency, leaves them with an impression of being a bunch of wimps.
We are coming up on another so called 'debate' where the existing, and qualifying, candidates for president are going to present themselves as the one to choose. They will do this, not by demonstrating their ability to beat Trump (by going after him tooth and nail) but by beating up each other whilst promising stuff, that is not only unlikely to even get passed in congress, but completely skips little things like the huge lack of money to do anything but pay interest on the national debt. Doesn't really make my heart beat faster with enthusiasm. I will vote for whoever wins the nod, but I will probably not be voting with a whole lot of enthusiasm.
