If you are driving straight at a brick wall, unless you take your foot off the gas and apply the brake, you will go "boom."

Trump thinks he's better than the brick wall and that by the time of impact, the wall will be the loser, not Trump.

There's no way he can maintain the pace of his first 15 months back in office for another 2-1/3 years.

Something, at some point, will fracture under the stress, and yes...it won't be pretty for the American people.
