A cry for help is coming from the White House.
Even Trump’s inner circle say he’s unstable; the danger is growing
From the moment Donald Trump went down that golden escalator back in June of 2015 to announce his candidacy, people have been predicting that his improbable foray into politics was on the verge of imploding. There were a dozen disqualifying moments during the campaign and since he's been president we've careened from one disaster to another, each time wondering if he's going to survive. The smart money says he does, because he always has.
Having said that, there's a shift taking place in Washington. It may just be the realization setting in that the man we saw on the campaign trail was the real, authentic Donald Trump and he's not going to change. There are too many reports coming from inside the administration or Capitol Hill expressing concern at his behavior to write this off as just another Trump storm that will soon pass. There are alarms going off all over Washington, and it feels different this time.
First there are the reports of Trump having to be handled like a small child because of his moodiness and irrational demands. This part does not surprise me. He showed his puerile temperament on the campaign trail from the beginning. The infantile nicknames, his rage tweets, his narcissism all pointed to someone who was emotionally immature and intellectually in over his head. Here's one example from early in the primary season:
Trump's childish combativeness hasn't changed since he's been president and led to his greatest self-inflicted wound, the firing of FBI Director James Comey and the naming of special counsel Robert Mueller to oversee the Russia investigation.

Next thing, you'll be telling us that Ben Sasse doesn't support Trump either.

He'll just Twaunt them to death, a slow death by a thousand cuts.
Look at what he did to the NFL.
Look at what he did when he acquired Mar-a-lago and the land for his nearby golf course.
"Ah pity the fools...". LOL

Don't forget about Santa Claus....
Uh, Willie: There IS no Santa. NO Trump "instability."
The only "danger" is to those who think they can continue their coup without yuge repercussions.
