Perhaps Trump is showing the Chinese leader how to handle Hong Kong, and Mr Putin, how to run a democracy.

The cynic in me thinks it is Putin who has shown Trump how to run a democracy.

The American constitution should be amended so it is easier to remove a president from office.
What changes would you make?

Adendum

The American constitution should be amended so it is easier to remove a president from office.
The US constitution is built on the premise of three branches of government (the executive, the legislature and the judiciary) that provide checks and balances. Thus, at the moment, it falls on congress (the legislature) to remove a wayward president. Unfortunately, it assumes that two out of three of the branches will act in the best interests of the country. This is not the case at the moment. The executive is controlled by a psychopath. The upper house of congress is controlled by a partizan hack and between them they have conspired to stuff the judiciary with more partizan hacks.

If it were any easier to remove a president from office, the USA might get into a position where a partizan congress could remove a president of the opposite stripe at will.

Quote
If Trump carries on the way he is doing, I suspect someone will take it into their own hands to remove him permanently using a gun. If that happens I think there would be more cheers than tears.

The US secret service is very experienced at stopping that sort of thing from happening.

Now here's something I never thought I would do.

I am posting a quote from a TV programme I have never watched, namely "Game of Thrones":

He would see this country burn if he could be King of the ashes.

Many of us thought Bush was pretty hopeless, but compared with Trump he was a brilliant president.

So even Bush was 'pretty hopeless' and now you say Trump makes him look brilliant.

What is it that you look for the worse in everyone. Do you think in the great scheme of things that they were put in power by men and women who really have a say in the worlds future?
How does that reflect on the opinions of you and I?

Trump would make a monkey as president look brilliant, that man is sick in the head.

Tweet from US President

'Buffalo protester shoved by Police could be an ANTIFA provocateur. 75 year old Martin Gugino was pushed away after appearing to scan police communications in order to black out the equipment.

@OANN

I watched, he fell harder than was pushed. Was aiming scanner. Could be a set up?'

Trump is beyond parody really.

Though, I did appreciate the Times cartoon yesterday, with Trump and a posse  of police having pushed over Uncle Sam, left bleeding on the ground. 

Ah, but I was so much older then ... I'm younger than that now

US President Donald Trump says he will "not even consider" renaming military bases named for Confederate generals.
He tweeted that the facilities were part of "a Great American heritage".
Mr Trump's remarks follow reports that top military officials were open to changes amid nationwide soul-searching after the death of George Floyd.
For many, symbols of the Confederacy - the slaveholding southern states that seceded, prompting the 1861-65 American Civil War - evoke a racist past.


I suspect Trump would have owned slaves himself in those days, and is possibly a secret member of the KKK. >:(

Not quite. And it was last year that he may have suggested it

Not bad, he has got over 105,000 free publicity views on this site.  What's the name of his opponent?

Thank you for the link. Maybe even Trump has a glimmer of realisation that nuking anything just might have a few unpleasant consequences!

I would like to believe that to be true, but Trump being Trump he might still have it in mind! ::)
