Are the firewalls breaking down? The Japanese delegation thinks so...
Trump doesn't let anyone control him. He lets the deep state think that they do, but they never did and they never will.
He's draining the swamp and they're not even noticing that he's doing it

I think he has been getting angrier & angrier, running around cussing 'em all out.
He feels 100% betrayed by people he thought were 100% loyal, earlier, when he
acted like a blithering jack@ss he did not expect to be jumped ad infinitum for it.
What will be the new excuse for everything that Trump does?

Why does one need an excuse for winning?

I am a libertarian. I am advocating everyone enjoy maximum freedom on both personal and economic issues as long as they do not bring violence unto others.
He's still doing everything the bankers direct him to do to make massive changes to the system (some good ones, yes, but still) just like FDR did. Why can't people grasp that the President is a PR man and doesn't directly control anything? It's really not a hard concept to grasp.

"We have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about the absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit of COLLECTIVISM. They have never yet and they never will have the sense to reflect that this hobby-horse is a manifest violation of the most important law of nature, which has established from the very creation of the world one unit unlike another and precisely for the purpose of instituting individuality."- A Quote From Some Old Book
If he were winning, he would not need any excuses.

Jeff Sessions is soon to quit, be fired, retire or just walk out the door or something like that.
This time is different!

...deep state coup
...holding him hostage.
...arrests imminent
What's most interesting is why he thought people who obviously loathed him were 100% loyal.
...it's clear enough why he needs to think that.
Like Warren Harding.
Who the Dems almost slandered as the worst president ever...
According to Howard dean... ..Who, IIRC, I gave $200 to.
Harding is so safe now.
Trump will be worstest Nazi forever.
(P.S. Harding was unaware of most of the scandals happening under his presidency, and was TWICE reported to be caught LITERALLY strangling one of his cabinet members.)
P.P.S
As Liu Bang, peasant and founder of the Han dynasty lamented:
"I execute ten -thousand corrupt men, and the next day, ten thousand corrupt men take their place"
Trump knows he is in a cave with the goblins.
If the democrats win back the house they will install Mike Pence as president, you don't want that do you??
Is this an impeachable offense?
They will do their best to install Pelosi as president and I suspect R3v might want that.

In all seriousness, they probably won't impeach him if they win the House (if they do, they're idiots - ask the 90s GOP).
It's more about the psychological effect of not winning on Donald "you're gonna get tired of winning" Trump for 2020.
The parties are both, as presently constituted, useless.
The Dems are likely to remain useless for the foreseeable future.
For the GOP, there is the slightest glimmer of hope that if Trump's big government nationalism implodes, there might be an opening for libertarians.
Hence, any rational libertarian should be rooting for Trump's ouster, which means electoral losses which discredit him and his partisans.
It would be best if the GOP lost big this November in Congress, and then Trump lost in 2020, but the GOP hung on to at least one house.
Then, the GOP, in opposition, might once again pretend to favor small government.
Otherwise, if there's no potential for a change within the GOP, it makes no difference at all who wins what.
What's the upside for libertarians?

You may have noticed the sudden death of the libertarian movement around the time the TV character became popular.
Libertarian movement died Sep 11, 2001.
Part of me thinks that was the whole reason it happened.
I was balls deep in Libertarian movement that day.
We were gaining popularity greatly. We were winning 5% for states.
I was front lines, real lines, not internet lines. Face to face.
Then Overton window shifted. Drug war? Who cares!? Mooslims! 9/11.
Yay, now instead of drug war, America gets real war!
No such event happened, Trump is our best current chance for moving the conversation our direction.

I don't remember it that way, myself, but an interesting perspective.
As I see it, the libertarian movement was more or less wandering in the wilderness from Rothbard till 2008.
2008-2012 was the golden age.
By 2014, a combination of inane in-fighting and effective neocon propaganda re the reasons for the rise of ISIS had popped the bubble.
Then, summer 2015, FOX and other GOP regime media pushed the 'Mexicans r scary" narrative, got Trump elected, and the rest is history.
Went back to minding their own business?
