If political incompetence were an impeachable offence, Trump would've been impeached already,

As it is, they'll have to find evidence of corruption rather than mere incompetence. So he'll probably remain president a few months longer.

• First, the intertwined Justice Department investigation, now led by a special counsel, into the ties between the Trump campaign and Russia and, reportedly, the possible cover-up.
• Second, the investigations led by the House and Senate Intelligence Committees, which are broadly looking at Russian intervention in the 2016 election.
• Third, the Senate Judiciary Committee and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee have been looking into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s conduct specifically — and have recently expanded their inquiry to the circumstances surrounding former FBI Director James Comey’s firing.
Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has reportedly been identified as a “person of interest” in the ongoing investigation into possible ties between Russia and Donald Trump’s campaign.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said on Saturday that Republicans in Washington are blocking efforts to investigate allegations of Russian influence in the election of President Trump.
"Trump and the Republicans in Congress must stop stonewalling our quest for the facts," Pelosi told delegates to the California Democratic Party convention in Sacramento.
Trump’s shocking lack of respect
His utter lack of regard for truth.
His scary willingness to repeat alt-right conspiracy theories,

Trumps record is about as impressive as Abbott's was.

Trump is showing himself to be every bit as dangerously incompetent as his critics said he would be. I'd expand in this but the examples are simply too many. Trump demonstrates to us, on an almost-daily basis, why is not capable of or suited to performing the duties of POTUS.

His tweets demonstrate that he still doesn't get it. He has no understanding of the position he holds or the seriousness with which it needs to be treated. It's just a game to him. The latest funny I heard was that they need to keep mentioning his name during security briefings to grab his attention because he continuously wonders off into a day dream.

leoj,

Not everyone is attuned to your political obsessions.
Try to stick to the topic of the discussion.
You can do it. Give it a go.

Dear Aidan, Doog, and AJ.,

What will be interesting is whether the investigations
currently being carried out into Trump's behaviour
constitutes anything illegal. Has he broken any laws?
I guess we'll have to wait and see what develops.

Foxy,

There is no interest here in your invitation to exchange unpleasantries. You have a number of childish exchanges going on in other threads for your amusement.

Is there any coincidence that leftists display so much interest in Trump just when interesting developments are happening in their own backyard?

There is a Labor conference. Bill Shorten is waging the Class War so appreciated on Twitter and by some here. But Shorten is being told off by his colleagues who want the political game playing to abate.

The Labor Party desperately needs REAL internal democracy.

"Listen to senior colleagues, Shorten told

The Turnbull government has called on Labor leader Bill Shorten to take the advice of his shadow cabinet and back an increase in the Medicare levy to fund the national disability insurance scheme.

Mr Shorten used his budget reply speech to announce Labor would only support an increase for people earning more than $87,000 a year.

But Fairfax Media has revealed a majority of his senior colleagues - including deputy leader Tanya Plibersek - argued for the party to back the government's across-the-board 0.5 per cent rise in the Medicare levy.

Finance Minister Mathias Cormann seized on the report saying Mr Shorten should listen to the majority of his shadow cabinet.
"We call on Bill Shorten to reflect on the national interest and the public interest instead of continuing his opportunistic political games," he told ABC radio on Monday."
