I think the 25th Amendment will come into play before his term is up. Unless, of course, he makes a deal with Vance and Theil to quit early in return for a pardon, an increasingly likely prospect.

He's rapidly unraveling, both physically and mentally. His henchgoblins will try to pretend that everything is fine as long as they can, but they can't do it forever.

As for the media, I agree that once any outlet starts to report honestly on his health, it'll be like a leak in a dam, and it won't be long until the whole dam bursts wide open. I'm living for that moment!

Watching his decline, I'm reminded of a quote from a T.S. Eliot poem, The Hollow Men:

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.


This may just be the way Trump's grip on this country ends: not with a bang but a whimper!
